i cranked up the torsion bars on my dart 15 turns
got the stance i want but then i drove it and whoa......the ride changed big time. it wasn't as responsive on the steering wheel with more body roll and felt bumpier.
I love it, comfortable cars are for starbucks type girls, they are missing out. Nothing like driving a metal car that is noisy and you question if you are going to live another day when the speedometer needle starts raising rapidly and the road is starting to come at you faster and faster and faster...and the noise gets louder and louder and your radio fell out a few miles ago ...oh well, who needs that anyways, as long as nothing else vital falls off the car you are doing ok
LOL

so far the only vital thing i had fall off my dart was the muffler when i first got the car.
i was getting on it to see she was made of and get to know the car and suddenly the engine tone changed ....i looked in the mirror and saw the muffler on the street.
So i went around to pick it up and i timed it so the traffic wouldn't get in the way and pulled up right next to it, where i could reach it from the driver door.
I picked it up and ooooohhhhh HOT HOT HOT ...i threw it behind the driver seat and took off before anyone saw my embarrassment LOL

Evening Mr. Ben Rick .... long time no chat.
I have been in and out and have no idea what is going on In here
Was a electrician on movie sets and that was my company name. Had it on everything I owned, vehicles.
In other words leave it alone!!!

I agree. It's not that I don't like the Magnum 500s, I just think with a Sublime paint job and black stripes it needs something brighter to pull it all together. Not that the 500s would look bad at all...

Hey bartender!
While you've been doing the in and out, so much has happened that i wouldn't even know where to begin.. you got lots of backreading to do!
Ben Drinkin
Hey bartender!
One of the few times i can actually say this, i like it both ways!
As far as wheels I like the Magnums better.
Ben Drinkin
Hey bartender!
I suppose when it comes to wheels I do...You swing BOTH ways?

I so like the magnum 500s even with that color.
in 69 it really needs the road wheels with the trim ring. ...those are 69/70 ...the magnum 500 with the chromed rim are actually a 67/8 wheel

Hard to choose when it's sexy in both directions!

Those look like aftermarket re-pops. Are they?
I think so...No markings on them..
They were on my 68 Dart I gave my brother.
They were on it when I bought it to restore. Might be original...
