and on a side note why bugger about with them at all,,,,,,, carry 1 spare wheel say a 15" big pattern and carry some sort of adapter that will bolt on the 4" to get the 4.5" fit no big pay out or pissin around you have enough to do,

Need to put discs on it and need 15" wheels to clear the Calipers....might as well do the job properly and put Moser Shafts in it at the back atthe same time - for "insurance" purposes

Peanuts compared to your brace of Conti's, chap....and no depreciation

But, yes; if possible I would like the same "Sleeper" look......not paramount though...

INCIDENTALLY,
Found a copy of "Connected" (issue 51, 2009) yesterday.

Not only did it have a picture of the '67 Dart I had rolling, but also in the "For Sale" was Duncan's '72 Challenger.....small world...

I can sub him the £10 hes short

Well I thought my Dad was croaking it last week so I might have come into a few quid but the bloody hospital have fed the bugger up and got him on his feet again. He's a worry, the old fella.

but its relative pete would i pay £1,000 squids out for every drive i have in it............. yes cause its just the nuts makes me feel the bollax
i could of bought a hemi daytona or hemi cuda and change but would i enjoy every minute behind the wheel ,, no, yes would get my money back after 10 yrs maybe even bloody good profit rather than a 100 k loss but it will have been worth it,,,,,,,,,,,, honest,

Different strokes, mate.
Each to his own....that's what makes it all interesting!!

In the short term I will be putting the A12 wheels on it - they have similar tyres with the Red Lines...one way to double the value of the Dart

Need to sort out something longer term....

Thanks Les.
No sooner has it arrived then I am pulling it apart

Wilwood brakes going on the front (half way through that and using Guy's thread for guidance!!!) and also upgrading the stock axle shafts to Mosers with 4.5" BBP to suite the front Wilwood hubs.

Need to get some wheels - will use the A12's Steelies in the interim, so it will look the same as the pictures....

That would give me the potential to get a spare set of 15" rims with slicks for the odd quarter mile blast.

Need to fit a rev limiter before I do that, and with a bit of spray it might even run a "10".

Superstock material????
