new dart owner needing help.

I drove through Cheyenne at 70 mph in 2005. Looked like a nice place from my Dart.
No time to stop. I was trying to get from Seattle to Georgia before the snow hit.
Made my day to hear that you have converted.
And that you got a good deal!
That rear end is worth half what you paid for the car, maybe.
I’m going to have 700 dollars in one once I buy the big bolt pattern axels from Moser.
(You’ll find out about big and small bolt patterns.)

This explains why your rear end is better than a Ford.

You will find good people in Mopars.
You have already met some on this thread
Very knowledgeable and helpful.
Does your car have a four-barrel? If not and you go to one, be aware that the kick down has to be correct for the Torqueflight to work properly.
A good stock 318 or 360 will give you a bulletproof car to have fun in.
Shouldn’t cost you hardly anything.
