My 70 Dart as of now

[70DartMike]

wow they were rusty did that sucker sit in a lake or something before you got it?

The guy had 2 340's, and they were sitting in a crate in a car port, exposed to moisture.

Nice to see you are getting back on the Dart. Good luck with it.

[super scamp 340]

look's like it will be a sweet ride. but fix the front tag this time.lol;;

 

[70DartMike]

Thanks guys. And the front plate was crooked because it was missing a bolt hole in the valence.

Picked up a set of the larger 340 rods, for $100! Also told the guy about the site, and he seemed really interested. He had a 68 Dart, original 340 car. Very nice car, good guy.
Also bought an 850 Demon carb from him today for $275, and gave him an extra $25 since he did a half hour drive and drove it to me.

Man that body on that Dart is in great shape. Very cool car! Here is a good article on building a stout 340:
