Simon,
Dart does look sweet, have to agree leave it all original. Something to be said for the Slant 6 engines, I ran the Duster for 9 years with a six, might not set the world alight with balls out performance, but you can't knock 28 mpg can you.

well actually i parked next to a guy with a 75 dart at the mopar nats but it wasent the same style as mine it had the same wheels and everything awsome car was a sort of browny colour with a 318 in but sounded like a 6
i do want to keep the wheels but they do look very pathetic and small from the rear

Think you can get the standard rims but wider. Hey its only my opinion, you do what you wanna do Simon (even if torque thrusts remind me of mid 60s Mustangs!!) :wink:

Looking good, mate! no need to bother sending those pics over to you now, then, if you've joined the digital revolution, then? :wink:

If I ever get my lazy arse in gear and download Sal's Hot Rod Drags photo's, I'll shove 'em up on a seperate thread, but there are a few on there for you.

You're right about the six, easier to drive around without a second mortgage! Still on for an all six rip (crawl) down the strip next season... :twisted: ?
