    68 Dart Project.

    Not the worse problem to have by a longshot and I wouldn't loose any sleep over it, doesn't look like it eats too much. I'm finding the price to duplicate what we built a few years back has increased considerably. Build back better my ***.

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    I think our A body Hemi cars are similarly equipped.....except I have A/C and P/S. Both stick cars but I bet mine is slightly heavier and a bit more streetable......so to even things out, I'll leave my A/C off. Whooompa!!! BTW...the carpet looks great.

    Running / parking lights only use one filament, the second filament is for the turn signal / 4 ways. May I suggest , re-check / clean ground on the drivers side lighting harness. Now the fun begins just doing the little odds and ends at your own shop at your pace. Enjoy. once I replace my...

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    The reverse light bulbs they sell, while somewhat pricey, seem to shine brighter than my old OEM headlights. If you never drive at night you probably would not care, but driving home from that late evening cruise you can see again.

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    Easy on the hole-shots. My 50 year old spider gears spit the bit last Friday on my first (attempted) 1/4 mile pass in my Duster. Lined up, dropped the hammer @ 3500 (315 drag radials / 4:30 gear / 4-link) and with a track prepped for John Force (extra sticky), traction was not an issue. It bit...

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    I put the plug / play LED headlights and reverse light bulbs in my Duster and HemiMarks Demon. Easy / peasy....and WOW! are they bright. They plug right in to your OEM harness with zero effect on charging system. They have a relay built into the new harness that tucks easily behind the headlight...

    12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build

    The mounts were designed with a small block 727 attached plus a 3/16 spacer....and the OEM transmission mount dead in the center of the crossmember. Everything was a give / take as to front / back and side / side but that is why the HDK mounts allow adjustment.....for the optimum placement for...

    A-Bodies...Big Motors / New Hemi Duster - FINAL ASSEMBLY

    Summits wholesale division / Atech invited it's customers to free track time (9am-3pm) yesterday at Norwalk Raceway Park....so Brother Weeb and I drove our Dusters for some fun. Only about 30 cars there when we arrived so we headed right to the staging lanes. We lined up side by side....let the...

    4-bar / back half the HemiDenny / HDK way

    I agree, never been a fan of fuel in the trunk. it is fun to build something like this I always learn a few things for the next one. Right about the small brakes on the big diameter rims, but just cannot get my old school head around the 19" and 20" rims on our 60 and 70's hot rods. Guess I'm...

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    Dart looks great. Been a fan of the 4-speeds for over 5 decades. Having an automatic in a hot rod like the Dart is like sex with a condom. You get there....just not as much fun.

    1/4" vent hose, not as thick as fuel line. and doesn't need to be because there is no pressure on it. A tension clamp is a good idea on both ends

    you might want to put a drain hose on the radiator overflow fitting and route it pointing to the the ground. If it happens to build pressure and releases, it will be spraying all over your pretty Hemi.

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    glad to see you made it back A-ok. I'm sure Sean told you.....Hemis are inherently cold blooded, even with a choke (not sure if you have any?), let it warm up sufficiently. And be careful on those street tires, mashing the gas in about any gear can and likely will spin you out. enjoy the ride...

    rear 31.5 tall tires have a sectional width of 15-1/2" .....should be good with 1-1/2 plus on each side of the tires.

    "Next Victim"

    more mock up.....working my way to the back. Went with a Strange 9" w/ 3.25 gear. Originally planned for a Strange S-60 but the lowest gear available was a 3:55 this combo will put Butch at 1820 rpm at 70mph with the .75 overdrive engaged............@ 5200 rpm he will hit 200 mph. SHAZAM!!!!!
