aqwik69's 1969 Dodge Dart

This is my 69 Dodge Dart. It is still under construction so the pics are not the greatest! It was originally dark green and came with a 6 cylinder and an automatic. I have since removed all of the body mouldings and vinyl top then completely straightened the body lines and removed any dings. It is almost ready for paint, and I am painting it FJ6, Sassy Grass green.

UPDATE

I have built a completely new engine with nothing but the best parts, and it is finally in and running. The power is crazy, and I can't wait to get it to the track!
The engine is making approx. 700 HP at the crank.
The Best 1/4 mile time to date was with the OLD engine and it was 11.28 @ 116 mph on a 9" MT street slick. The specs for the old combo are on page 2.
Now I have a 28x13.50x15 MT ET Street out back.

This is what the engine looked like when I first got the car running....this was taken in late '2001
Many things have changed, like the fuel system has been finished, battery moved and so on.
