The '69 made a few passes down the 1/8 mile before we decided not to go any further until a new valve body and reverse pattern shifter is install. The car ran a couple 8.40's at part throttle since the transmission wasn't shifting properly.
Nothing to write home about but we aren't finished.
It was a successful day for us with the Dart, it launches hard, stops OK with the drum breaks and sounds good.
I was trying to keep the Dart as OEM as possible but to make the car more user friendly for the "big guy" we are going to also install a single seat and a good set of belts for safety.
