    [FOR SALE] 1965 Dart hoods

    One steel and mint. One fiberglass from " Showcars " out of Toronto and it is a race weight , pin on of marginal quality. 200 for the glass , 500 for the steel. Both are located in St.Paul , Mn. and if you have never shipped a hood , the size drives the price..........it isn't terribly cheap...

    should valves rotate ?

    Solid roller , good rockers , 240 seat and 590 over the nose.......I have about 500 miles on the motor and don't think it's seen 8000 r.p.m. I am putting it back together after removing the rockers over the winter , and noticed scrub marks that tend to indicate that the valves have not rotated...

    Al Anabi exit from NHRA

    It didn't seem to make much sense. They were throwing big dollars at four Pro classes and enjoying a good deal of success.........why would they simply pull the plug ? You don't just kick the nitro thing cold turkey and going fast and faster is a life long thing. I was baffled until this came...

    It took you long enough.........

    Finally ! A trip to the alignment shop , a good wash and it will be time to sort out the launch and determine if it wants to behave in public. I have nearly six years of scrimping , saving , swearing and sorting. O.K. , two years were stolen by forces beyond my control , but I have been waiting...

    Grudge race.......

    No break out........heads up. Who wins ? Questions raised when this was first posed were interesting.........sand or bedrock ? Lane choice could be critical. Fred is clearly a big block........Gilligan has a significant weight advantage. I say if Little Buddy can cut a bulb , he gets to the...

    I am priming the oil system on my motor....48 degree w-9's with T&D 1.6 rockers.....Smith pushrods with .040 resttrictors and GS roller lifters with I believe the .210 offset intake push rod cups. I am getting oil except to the intake rocker. Plenty at the lifter , the valley fills up...

    Sportsman's special

    A twentysomething is in the bar up North after a long day on the lake with his buddies. The fish weren't biting , but they would have been drinking in either case. He notices an older woman at the bar is giving him the eye , and since he has never had an experienced woman , he figures he'll give...

    Hood insert and trim for '65 Dart GT

    That's all. Is that too much to ask ? Apparently , because I can't find these things so far. They don't need to be museum quality.......I am going to use them for a fiberglass hood. I could actually use two sets since I have two hoods. I also have a stock steel hood in excellent shape for trade...
