Rookie questions about ladder bar suspension.
By Clelan
For some background, I bought a 73 Duster bracket car about a year ago. It has a 436 Small block Mopar (Dynoedat 650 hp), 727, 8-3/4 with 4.30 gears and a spool. I have only had it to the track once, and when the tire pressure was right it seemed to leave pretty straight. It has a ladder bar suspension with QA1 single adjustable coil over shocks. It did a 1.59 60' time, but I was leaving easy and feeling out the car. I am getting it ready for mire racing this season and I seem to be coming... Read more

Let's hear your "black widow" part story.
By skep419
I couldn't really find or think of a better name for it. It's basically a part that you got a good deal on or had laying around that caused a project to snowball. I had this carb laying around so I bought this project car...... Got a good deal on these pistons so it's now on race gas with 4.56's

Always trying new things
By 9secRR
I have been in contact with CFE about making a single 4 top for the tunnel ram. I would love to test a single carb vs. the 2 toilets on the tunnel ram. I have a pro systems 1050 alcohol dominator and a brand new mopar 772 intake that is begging to be used. Next year I’ll do some testing just for curiosity.

Mopars @ Maryland International Raceway
By Scampin
October 17th. Car racing, Car show, Swap meet. Didn't see anyone advertising it so I figured I would post it up. Usually a pretty good turnout for the F.A.S.T. racing class there. The duster is still apart but I am hoping to have it down there.

67 Barracuda dash, engine, and rear used wiring harnesses
By highspeeddirt
Thought I would offer these here in case anyone needed them instead of trashing them. It is the dash harness, the engine and front harness, and the rear harness from my 67 Barracuda. Everything on the car worked when I removed them. However, they are 60 years old so no guarantees. Let's just say $10 each or $20 for all of it. Just to cover my time and packaging. Buyer pays shipping from Butte, MT

Garage Storage Ideas
By Beams
Embarrassing pictures coming up. Like honestly embarrassing. My garage is 18’x18’. It houses the dart, family stuff like camping gear, all tools, bikes, lawn equipment, outdoor furniture cushions, etc. I have some shelves and rolling tool chests. Always improvement that can be done with existing storage “equipment”. Here’s the fun part about the garage. The garage has a 4’ deep shelf that runs along the entire back wall. This is where most of the “junk” lives. I could certainly improve... Read more

Windshield replacement, save the old one?
By StanfieldNC
Hey all, the windshield on my 69 Dart is the factory original. Late 68 date code on the Chrysler window "bug". The windshield has some light peppering that I don't love because it can create a nasty glare if the sun hits it right. All the other glass on the car is great. I've scheduled with a reputable pro to a have a new one installed. Is there any benefit to keeping the old one? Is this something that someone could want? There aren't any cracks, but I think the light peppering may be... Read more
