Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's
I'll tell you guys the story of how I "paid" for those tires (I still kick my own *** for it) A few months before I bought the Charger I was driving a 71 Dodge Dart with a 318 in it. I put an ad in a local free paper looking for a 340. I get a call from a guy named "Spike" who told me he had a complete drive train out of a 71 Demon. He had just pulled it out of the car and replaced it with a 6 cyl !!! (Gas had just hit $1 a gallon and people were freaking out) Price for the drivetrain COMPLETE CARB TO DRIVESHAFT $50 I borrowed the money and drove to pick it up. I remember the Demon was bright Orange with a plaid interior (quite ugly) I brought the driveline home and covered it up in the yard. A few weeks later I found the Charger and bought it. I sold the dart to my neighbor and realized he had a set of those N-50'S sitting in the garage and offered the 340 driveline EVEN UP!!! He took the offer and I thought I made out alright as I only had $50 in the 340. He ended up selling the Dart to a guy I knew who bought the 340 as well and put it in the Dart. OMG did that thing RUN !!! He got drunk one night at a party and I drove him home in the Dart and since he was passed out in the back seat I beat the hell out of it.
