Dartin for Divorce

Modern cars have us spoiled. Old cars were always more like operating machinery than what we call "driving" today. Get used to the quirks for now and then make changes if it actually causes you trouble.

You can always lower your shift points by slightly rolling out of the throttle to help "nudge" the transmission to shift when you want it to. It's a skill that you pick up by driving old heaps ;)

Yep, that's how you had to drive some of the old Torqueflites. I (partially) learned to drive on a '68 Dart /6-torqueflite, and that's what my Grandma told me to do with the gas pedal. Funny how you remember stuff like that from almost 50 years ago, isn't it?

Thats kind of what I was doing at one point yesterday.

I need to be happy with where its at. I found these cheetah vbs for cheap, im going to get one. See if it works better and like I said start saving to do the transmission with a proper tc and governor.
