The traction was so much better there back in the day that the Ramchargers would travel to Cecil County to set records so Dodge could use the publicity to hawk their cars.

got my showfield stuff yesterday. Biggest surprise was that they rearranged the show field. A-bodies had been in about the same place for over 20 years, but not anymore.

1972 Cecil County Drag Raceway... THE TRACTION CAPITAL OF THE EAST!!!... SATURDAY SATURDAY SATURDAY!!!

Just got my entry package and looked at the map. The relative locations of the old vehicles (A, B, E, C) had been the same every year since my first visit to Carlisle in 1998, BUT NOT ANY MORE!!!. As you look at the show field from the grandstands, A bodies have shifted all the way to the...

Thanks for all your work on this, Hawk! If you need help with anything please post a request here. I can't believe that after all these years they have moved the locations of the various cars around! Did they send you a list of classes with numbers for location?

Not an A-Body???!!!

with a name like Low Darts I can see how you stumble across this!!! WOW... just WOW!!!

I'll he out on the show field, so I'll be makin' a list of who to visit at the swap meet!

I used their full car trailer behind their biggest box truck in 2001 to bring my Dart from Virginia to Washington state. One suggestion. There were two attempts to steal the car out of 3 nights on the road. One night they tried to steal the whole trailer with the car on it, 2 nights later...

In my mind it's always a question of striking a balance. Where is the spot where the extra horsepower starts to interfere with what I want to do with the car. Last year my wife and I drove across the country mostly on 2 lane blacktop. I sure was glad she chose the Plum Crazy paint! Every...

louvers? WTF?

That is Mopar Collector's Guide (why I cancelled my subscription years ago). That is NOT Mopar Action, which was the most useful one of the bunch. Best tech information available for both mechanical stuff and restoration. Best info about useful parts sources.

I the dog's owner still alive (it isn't the dog's fault)? Paying for the damage?

Biggest concentration of Mopar parts is usually all the way to the back next to the vendor gate

OK, I'll go as far as to say you should NEVER use a deep pan without the requisite pickup/filter extension.

If you don't have the extension to move the intake to the bottom of the pan then the deep pan is useless as the extra quart can't be picked up and moved into the system. You might as well not have changes from the stock shallow pan.

I presume pan came with spacer to drop the filter/pick-up?

TrailBeast - what are you using to take the video and how is it mounted for the pieces that show your dash, On top of the seat???

OP. how about a few pics of your engine - dual quads?

doing the math - $44,000 on $700,000 is 6.3%!!!! I think somebody got their math wrong! 1.5% on $700,000 is $10,500...

Love seeing all those twin scoop A-bodies! Here's some from Pacific Coast Highway & Rt 66 last summer

Hang in there, buddy! These days they can do some amazing ****. You got a lot of good years left.

@HawkRod is putting a group tent together for FXBO folks (from all the sites - under the FBBO banner). Lunch on Saturday for folks to get together. I went last year and a good time was had by all!

My Plum Crazy Dart has been sitting in storage in PA ever since MoparFest in Ontario last year. I'll be at Carlisle, come back for MoparFest again in August and then another 6000 mile road trip via Rt 66 and the Pacific Coast Highway back home to WA State. Look for me, would love to meet more...

Thanks, Steve... that was entertaining AND useful, keep posting when you find them!

Buy a house on tall stilts, not sure how to get your cars above the water, and be sure to take your snorkels. I was in Florida a few years ago and thought it would be cool to go to the highest point in the state, which turned out to be in a flat plot of woods next to a rural road side picnic area...

two door post!!!

Man, talk about culture shock! I'd say the same thing to somebody from KY contemplating a move to CA. I'd sure find a way to try that on for size before making the jump. Any way you can go live there for a few months before you just pick up stakes?

All the Dart GTs (option code A65) in 1970 and 71 were 2 door Dart Customs, which were the high end trim cars inside and out (VIN starts with LH23) and then had the A65 option, which was the GT package which included a console shifted automatic and bucket seats and GT badging. I have seen lots...
