Killer ride Alan.. My dad had a 340 Demon when I was younger..My first rod was a 71' Lemans "400" Sport.. Red mind you.. Damn if the cops didn't love that car too !!
My girls saw a Dart 340 this summer in FM3 Panther Pink and told me we had to have one... Like to find an old Dart/Duster and suprise them one day.. The 340's were bullet proof back then.. Moj' |

Bullet proof and simple to work on. I had more trouble with clutches than my engines. I had a clutch change by myself down to about an hour and a half. Put in heavier clutches and started bending throw out bearing forks. Lots of fun and learned a lot in the process. Only problem I ever had with the motors was wanting them to go faster and faster. |

root, The coolest thing about that car was that I'd get in about 4am sunday from a wild night and while I was sleeping it off Dad would take the Duster to church and then for a cruise after. He did that for almost a month before I even realized it. Dad's still great, wish he lived closer so he could drive the boat around a bit. |

Steve, I've looked very carefully at that picture and I still don't see a prop.
