Interesting...but I love my good ol' American Dart (made in Canada of course!) :wink:

After my 72 Dart is finished/gone I plan on tracking down a Valiant Charger as my car to drop a big block in and have long term :clock: A 1961 Diesel powered valiant?? Interesting!

He says it's the same car that was in Maine on Allpar.
