Sweet Dart! I would love to hear about your aluminum radiator, shroud & fan setup.
 

Lee radiatoris just a universal fit welded some 2x2 angle aluminum to the sides so it bolted in stock location. the shroud is 2 inch wide 1/16 thick flat aluminum strip bent in a circle and overlapped and boltedtogether to adjust the fit to the fan. fan is from jegs aluminum stock type 17 inch. it has a 160 thermostat. it has run best of 7.39@92 mph in 1/8 mile 11.76@112 1/4 mile on pump gas. thanks Bradley
 
Picket this up from MO this weekend. No engine or interior, but I have a 340 4 speed and a 8 3/4 for it. Rear defrost and cigar lighter options.


GREAT to see another Wichita A-body. If you need an engine I ahve a few. Shoot me a pm if you think you might want one of them. They're in newton is the only catch.
 
My father just gave this 29k survivor to my youngest brother as a wedding gift. We had tires rims and airshocks ready and on within 24hrs. Dad was not thrilled. I just added a 70 dart style tip today. Its only a /6, for now. Rears are 15x7 with 4''bs with 255 60s , fronts are 155 80s on a 15x4.5 rim. As it sits now no rubbing, but it cant go much lower or the tires start rubbing (only around turns) inside the wheel well , 2-3 inches above the wheel lip. My brother loves it as is.

Yeah, And still was the Lancer a copy of Valiant that was first:)
 
Nice dart! What kind of times are you running? And just curious why is it so heavy? Roll cage? I thought a stock V8 65 was only around 3000lbs per all my factory literature.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

My 65 Barracuda...


Hey BubbaCuda, I know this is an old post but are those wheels Coy's? 17 x 7 w 4.25 backspacing?

I'm thinking about getting a set like that on my '66 Dart, did you need to make and modifications for clearance?
 
Here's mine
