The new “what did you do to your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXVIII

2nd car was a 1969 Dodge Dart 340 6 pack w/ 4 on the floor Hurst shifter... letting off the clutch on that bad boy with some thick azz tires in the rear felt like the front was going to lift off the ground. The throw from first to second was so ridiculously far apart lol

Had both cars at the same time and often change the 6 pack Holley Carb to the Charger... just a manifold change, fuel hook up, and linkage ... took less than an hour. Fun times.

Had a '73 Dart Sport 340 4speed. Dropped a valve in it. Replaced the 340 with a 440. Grenaded that motor. Rebuilt it to a 572 ci monster. It was ridiculous.

My dad had a '64 Plymouth Belvedere with a 413, dual 4 bbl cross ram intake. He just about died in that car. Some guy crossed the double yellow line and hit my dad head on. The guy died on the sot. My dad spent 3 weeks in ICU. when the insurance company settled up. They got him another '64 Belvedere with a 318. Boy, was my dad pissed.

Mom had a Plymouth Sport Fury III with a 440. Loved that car when I was a kid.

I went from having those 2 muscle cars to a 1980 Datsun B210 hatchback... talk about night and day That's when I started my first real job and I needed something practical to get me to work which was 50 miles up the nj turnpike. I swore the gas gauge was broke on it as it never moved like my Dodges lmao
