Carolina and stopped by here to by my Dart. He's a MOPAR guy and appreciates A bodies with small blocks. I know it's going to a good home. I hate to see it go as it defined the last 6 years of my life. I had a ton of fun with it. Testing and tuning and making it haul azz. The cool thing is it's staying in Florida so I'll get to see it around! Thanks goes out to all who helped me with this project from the very beginning to the very end. DC
