Not anytime soon. All I did was race for over 20 years. Last time I went down the track was in 2008. Racing at that level is not in the budget anymore. Time to enjoy it more and work on it less.

Thanks everybody for the compliments, it sure did feel good to get behind the wheel again

Bad ass ride! Due to this economy its hard to be a grass roots drag racer. Street cars let you release that stress on a back road lol.
Are you a member of Bigblockdart.com?

And I hope your avatar picture of the anti Chevy logo is not on your Dodge Dart because you have a Chevy cowl hood on it! lol

Yes it is on the car, has been a trademark of the car since early 90's

The motor is so far back and up the cowl hood is the only option for it. Plus it covers where I had the vent grate removed and replaced with a removable recessed panel. You can see the top of the air cleaner under the hood in the pic from the right rear 1/4 panel. I kinda like it! I am a member on BigBlockDart but haven't posted over there since I parked the car in 09.

Great pictures; thanks for sharing them! The little A-Body looks right at home on the street.

I changed the pic to show the air cleaner but you can't see the vent grate change so here's another pic

Real nice looking car. The second pic looks like a rose between two weeds in a flower garden. (just kidding)

Looks awesome! I didn't realize it had stock rails. Very nice build!

Love to see one with the radiator. I'm going to give Ron Davis a call tomorrow. I'm fairly confident he can knock it down a few degrees for traffic cruising

I'm in upstate NY, near Binghamton, long way away from here. I get up to southern VT quite often but still a long ways away. Love to see your cars sometime. Love both of them
