It does look plainer yes and there are more around,but the more I look the more I like,the condition is stunning and the motor sounds fantastic,well pleased

Did you do the manual valve body transmission in this Dunc?

Well for a period i certainly did all the Dave madders cars and Alex worked there so most probably

Thanks for the reply. I'd been given the impression it was later on when Andy Carruthers had owned it,2014-2018

All I was trying to find out was whether it had a higher stall converter in it and some idea of spec,but if my information is incorrect or it's too cloudy a memory then no problem.

Hi mate 2014 is when I looked at it was the chap from Leicester way? Cheers

No,Hamilton near Glasgow was where I bought it.Perhaps the previous owner to this was from Leicester?

YES YES YES I am with the programe now. Andy is a top guy, it was a quicko job before the mopar nats a few yrs ago Geof Hauser sent it to me they did the remove and refitt as they already had the car at there shop

Excellent news. Do you recall any specs please?

Cool car , one of my favourite road runners over here

Hi captain in 2014 it was a guy from leicester way who I met see you soon cheers

Well I was certainly not the fastest by a long chalk but I managed to get down the track at 14.06 at 95mph. Room for improvement I know,I’m rather taken with the feeling and sensations I experienced so if you need a slow opponent I’m your man.
Research and discussion into tyres, tyre pressures,pumping up the air shocks and technique will no doubt end up with £ being spent on other things too

go for it chaos,,

Oh yes,really looking forward to it Mr C.

Dave,Lets race Buddy!

The best thing to do with the air shocks is to remove them and get some decent shocks and springs. it's all about stored energy and if the springs are sagging and the car is being held up by the shocks there is no energy to release to plant the tires on launch and wheelspin is the result.

Thanks Blue.

Springs seem in good condition,nice arc to them and it is a little tail high when at rest. If the springs are good am I looking for a shock with a softer or harder action?

I did have some wheelspin which got better the hotter I got the Tyres,my guess is that there is little to be gained with Drag Radials unless the power is increased from what it is currently,at a rough guess in the 400bhp range. My last run it hooked well with just a small chirp on launch.
