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

    The new carpet really cleaned up the interior. That OEM shift tower sure is tall and great for leverage, but when you get tired of granny shifting and want improve your power shifts....and you will,..... bolt a shorter tower on. It will / would put a grin on your late FIL. what's the next stop...

    Can you image the fun if between 6pm and 10pm the Woodward circuit was limited to 1975 and older cars. BTW...what does it take to join your club? Likely worth the price of admission for just the Woodward event.

    thanks, just trying to keep up. For the pressure side of the P/S line. I like hydraulic hose, keep an assortment of fittings and after mock-up, get them crimped. Extra points for neatness.

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

    All fun and games until water gets in the carbs / engine. This particular car was built to be a quarter pounder, not a daily driver. Because you never know when you are forced to travel thru foul weather, I would advise Scott to plug the scoop when he is towing it on his open trailer. IMO, way...

    ......just another day on the glory trail for me. :) Pretty sure I kept it, after 5 moves in the last decade, I will have to do some searching. It would be a good find and a nice piece for my wall. That whole day was a blast. Drove up and down in the early afternoon and found a primo spot...

    if you like driving it, you should attend the Woodward Dream Cruise (Detroit area). But only plan on the driving part Tuesday thru Thursday, it gets pretty crowded after that. Been there a few times, even got a "excessive noise / tire spinning citation" back in the 90's with the green Hemi...

    understand....you kinda got a 2-fer. Always heard great things about the show and considered attending until I added up the miles, then reality hit, .....for me anyways.

    At least you are smart enough to have tread on your rear tires. Slicks would have added another level of "fun" . Been there / done that.

    The lightweight Fentons were the hot-set-up before the Cragar Super Tricks showed up in around 72. If you can find them, they are the same for just one as a whole set of US Mags. add Fenton stickers and most don't know the difference.

    just curious..... that was a long way to go for a car show when you got the molly-cocker (Carlisle) almost in your backyard. did you need the practice?

    looks like you added some US Mag / Fenton look-a-likes on the ride.

    Thanks for the reply and I wouldn't loose any sleep over it, A lot of us have PhD's by learning from our mistakes. I still consider this Mopar site a virtual garage where we hang out, bullshit and bench race. I could care less who is butt hurt as long as it ain't me....and that goes for...

    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 ***.

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...
