1972 Dodge Colt

Hey Stan,

Checked on the ring, it left Ft Worth at 3:38am this morning. Can't wait!

2100 lbs, wow, I think you are better off w/a /6 anyway. I've got a 3200lb Duster w/about 500 horses, it is so much power I don't dare punch it yet. I just got it together, took for freakin' ever. It's a long, long story, but it's together except for the sending unit ring. I can let you know what the hp is when I get the chassis dyno tests run. I need to learn how to handle that many horses. I only had a 360 w/about 200 horses in it before, maybe 250, but that was a heavy car compared to what you have there. Is is only a strip car?

I have been on this forum for a good 5 years and I could never figure out how to post a picture from my hard drive, lol. Which icon do you use, or do you do a c/p or something? I'm dying to know, I could never figure it out...

It is cool that you documented your progress. I had someone build my car and they did a horrible job. My documentary would have been more like: Well, they over tightened the thermostat housing and warped it. I had to replace it w/a billet aluminum one and it holds just fine. Today I saw the rear tranny seal leaking a little, so I checked the fluid thinking it was low, and it was a quart over!!! Stuff like that, but a lot of it... ugh

Well, Thanks for your posts on the car. I forgot they made a Colt. I have never seen one modified before, not like that. It ought to really ought to shoot right out of the hole!
