I honestly don't know what to make of this car ... MPH speedometre seems out-of-place ( "should" be KPH , I believe ) , to begin with ; everything else is just so odd to me on this thing ! I'm thinking that you have a "CKD" (Complete Knock-Down) built Dart from South Africa , if anything . The...

I see what's most-likely a mistake in billing on the rebuilder's end ... One of the rebuilder's staff (e.g. , their billing department) mistakenly sent the wholesale invoice to you instead of sending said invoice to Kanter's . Sounds to me like this potential mistake ended up screwing Kanter's...

I mainly posted this for its induction system : Holley 2300-Series 3x2Bbl ... ... sound / look familiar at all ?

...of the most beautiful engines ever produced : 1958 M-E-L (Mercury-Edsel-Lincoln) 430 V8 and its "Super" package . It was rated at 400 hp , with that trio of Holley 2300 Series mixers . I *believe* that someone's running one in F.A.S.T. ; a Mercury Turnpike Cruiser , if I remember...

Engines , etc. , didn't have any ties to their designated vehicle via sequence number / plant code , until '69 or '69 ( i.e. , no such a thing as "matching numbers" until '68 or '69 ). I thought that disc brakes (non-assist) were mandatory with the 383 in 1967 , and were optional in '68 and '69 .

My most sincere condolences , my friend .

Here's a link to Anakin : the Two-Legged Kitty page . Anakin was born sans his hindquarters ! This birth defect doesn't appear to affect him one iota ; he gets around on his hands ( I refer to cats' and dog's "front legs" and "feet" as arms / hands for the simple fact that they have thumbs...

I can't believe the stupidly low prices some of you are paying for REAL gasoline (i.e. , leaded hi-test stuff !) ! Out here in "Brown's-Ville" ( I call it that because of that *** hat Jerry Brown ) , 100 octane pump gas (yes , it's unleaded ; and yes , it's got that damned alcohol @ 10% in it...

I'd have to say that the strangest and rarest options I've ever seen in person were : - 1970 Charger R/T with the R20 "Radio Ready Package" ( included every-thing except the receiver ! Car had speakers , antenna and all the wiring !). - 1973 Scamp with a factory hardtop sunroof (!!) . I...

I don't believe that outside rear view mirrors were required until the 1965 calendar year (e.g. , 01/01/1965 production) , but they were probably integrated by late 1964 ( circa Nov. / Dec. '64 ) . I'd seen a '64 Nova SS with dealer-installed outside mirrors . They were placed out on the...

...was fresh ; he took some liberties with its rebuild , such as higher compression and some head massaging . The only other car I've seen with *virtually* no options was a 1971 Dart Swinger . Its only options were the 225 Slant Six upgrade (vs the standard 198) and Hi-Impact paint ( EK2 Go...

Congrats on your find ! This particular vehicle exemplifies the era of being able to individually order options : Certainly there were packages ; but for the most part , one started with 4 tyres and a steering wheel , with options stacked-on from there . Where else could one buy a...

Hmm ... I wonder if the guy that I knew finally restored it , or if he sold it off . Last time I saw the car , it had its original-issue black/gold Ca plates on it .

Thank you for your replies , RhinoDart and O.C.Dart. O.C. Dart : I didn't realise that Ruby's even existed at Whittwood any-more ! I though that it was sacrificed during the tear-down-and-rebuild of the mall a few years ago . RhinoDart: I have trolled the GTS Registry site , and have not...

My most sin-cere condolences on your loss . I , too , have feline companions ; and have had many over the years . The two lovers I have presently are shelter rescues ; Molly is 10 years old (got her at 6 months) , and Oliver is 9 years ( got him at 8 months ; still acts like a kitten !!) . If I...

* Also consider adding a "puke can" for the coolant overflow . You can get a "generic" bottle from NAPA (et al.) and mount it either in the engine compartment or hidden in , say , the wheelwell's underside . Again , good luck to you !

...for less-then-12 lb pressure caps . Run a 180-185 degree t-stat (get a "fail-safe" 'stat) and a 12 lb - 16 lb pressure cap . The temperature gauge *should* read some-where in the low-middle to absolute-middle ; this is normal . One of the reasons --if not thee reason--why your Dart's...

I wish ! It was a junkyard score from one of my neighbours . He just gave it to me as he had no use for it (he was primarily a GM guy , but did like MoPars as well) at the time (early 90's) .

...Bob's Big Boy which was the hub of the cruising scene) . I was finally able to check the car's v.i.n. and meet its owner ! :cheers: I saw LP27H72*in its doorjamb and was excited ! Apparently he bought it from its original owner in 1985 for $4,000 ; a gang of money for any 'A' Body during that...

Seeing the photos of that crushed VS29H3 brought tears to my eyes :wack: As far as rarity ; not many made , regardless of engine option . I've wanted one for absolutely years now ( probably since '74 , really ! ) . I have the crank and its bezel (in a tanish-white ) if anyone needs one ...

While '68 & earlier fender tags are an absolute mystery to me (ne'er could figure them out !! ) , I can ascertain that : - "62" = 383 engine - "418" = April 18th 1967 build - "H6R" = Red interior - "PP1" = ??? body colour And that's it from me :happy1:

Very nice EW1 Dart ! How much did he give for this gem ? Your B5 Barracuda is sweet , too !

...never on a B/RB engine ), other than my personal 1972 Coronet ; I removed the compressor and its related equipment from the Coronet's 318 . I'd *imagine* that so long as you don't crack any a/c gas lines loose , you'll be okay (even discharged , these old RV-2 York 2-piston compressors hold...

At first blush , that 6-popper / 3 speed Belvedere seems like the best one; however , that 1970 D-100 seems like a winner , too . How about that '70 D-Series , with a 24 Valve Cummins swapped-in ?! :happy2: Now that would be sweet !

...then ; not too bad these days . At least those were the result of taking an undesirable ( by most ... not me ! ) 4 door wagon and making something "acceptable" of it . Some of them --with the right combo of colours and and wheels-- actually looked really nice . But *this* monster ... :shaking2:

Copied link from Class Racer Forum . Lots of sweet vintage photos of Modified Production and Gas cars , c.1964-c.1980-something . http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=18345 Note the Don Grotheer 1971 B/MP Road Runner ( 440+6 ? ) ! Enjoy !

I mean that you're not limited to only one formula as we are here in Ca . You folks whom live in other , superior states , can still buy cleaners with VOC's ; no "Final Act 'Solution'" to contend with ! The kinds of carb and brake cleaners that , when you spray a carb or brake part with those 49...

How long before the registration lapses and the car is "out of the system" at the motor vehicles dept ? If you really want to keep it , you may just want to store it for 7-10 years and let it be forgotten about . In California it's 7 years before the car is out of the loop . Can one even check...

" ...71 Valiant 4 door 225/auto 3.23 8-3/4 rear..." And yet , my '72 318 Dart got nailed with that pile of junk 7.25 rear ! Almost a shame to part 'er out ; but that original gas cap looks like a desirable piece !
