Mopar Muscle Association UK

Bumper brackets are very heavy on a Dart, when i fitted glass bumpers, i also fitted glass bumper brackets about 25# lighter.

What kind of % of the car is that Mick?

I was under my dart the other day and noticed how flipping huge they were!


Great car Blue.

One thing I couldn't get used to is the '68 rear lights, they are odd and not in a good way. The '69 Valiant lights look far better IMO, so I've been searching without luck for a good reasonably priced pair on ebay in the States for a while now. Last week a good pair pop up 10 miles down the road for £30, I last saw the seller 30 years ago, he's never owned a Mopar and bought them to fit his caravan which they didn't, so far so bizarre. The apertures just needed some slight clearancing and they bolted right in, huge improvement I reckon, oh and the new lights are 1lb heavier which is a bonus right at the back.

a vast improvement

Yep.

I dont know if it is but each to his own,,,,,,,

I prefer the originals, but that's just me...

Good story, what were the chances of that ?

Also like both and as a stock item, though I'd agree that i'd prefer the overall look of the 69's myself on it myself.

Saying that, I recon the originals would look great if you got the inserts (not the chrome, just the matt/brushed steel looking part), all paint matched in body colour.........

Blue ,,ICE Automotive are putting up £2000 for the fastest 4 speed in the country,,,,must depress clutch to engage gear no sequential boxes ....Got me thinking who out there is the quickest 4 speeder ?????

One of the VW mob or the gasser circus? Hardly anyone else racing with 'em these days.

Maybe the VW convertible that runs in super gas.
James from norfolk runs a 4 spd chevelle that would fit in nicely at dragstalgia.

I think they do a 4 speed Nissan pulsar....
