Mopar Jimmy strikes again, just bought a bad azz 505 cid street/strip 69 Dodge Dart!
Here are some pics of my latest pride and joy bad to the bone old school Mopar: Thanks go out to Johnnyvettes for snapping these and allowing me to post pics up. I know, I know, its not a vette or GM product, but you all know we are just a bunch of car nuts here and I am about as bad as it gets!

The car, a 1969 Dodge Dart, is a FREAKING ANIMIAL with its 505 cid stroked Mopar Big block, 11.37 compression, 3800 stall converter, 1040 cfm holley, and 4.10 gears. The entire drivetrain/line and all mechanical parts are brand new and it was just too good of a deal to pass on. Proffessionally mini tubbed with 28 x 13.5 et streets, line lock, moser axles, etc. The motor, tranny ,converter, drivetrain, all have less than 50 miles on em! Rotteisire paint job (burnt orange metalic gold) and frame all professionally tied in etc. This Dart also has all the suspension cal trac brand new parts for drag racing and just needs a few small items to get ready for some 1/4 mile blasts (racing harness, drive shaft loop, coolant overflow catch can and bias ply skinnies on front). Has professionally welded NHRA certifed 6 pt. roll bar. I am selling my 70 Big Block Dodge Charger and that Mopar is on consignment at Volo Car Museum (still for sale) and so this ground pounder should help me get over that seperation anxiety pretty quick!
Car should run easy 10.5s at the track and we will see with time and yank the wheels up several inches. Of course, instead of working all day I have been messing around licensing, insuring and driving the Beast all day! What the heck, the wife is out of town in CA so these freaking hot rods become my mistress! I guess a guy could have worse hobbies!

Tommy,
You ball buster, these were taken on the fly in my driveway by Johnny!
That cream 70+ Dart with Vinyl top is butt ugly to buddy
but no doubt runs the 1/4 in probably 8 or 7 seconds!

Topless, I love your 62 Vette Roadster as that is the year I was born and one of my favorite iregardless of that fact. Just needs a little paint brother and you have yourself one heck of car there!

Nice car Jimmy! I hate to be the one to point it out, but they forgot to paint your hood
So how are you going to choose which beast to drive???

Sweet '69! 
My favorite year Dart. Being a big block, was it done with fenderwell or under chassis headers?
