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.
Very nice car, you gonna put a hitch on it?

Chuck, the Chevelle pretty much "flys" without a prop.. 
as for a hitch...this is my 72 Chevy 4x4 "tow vehicle"...I restored about ten years ago .. 
its pretty much my everyday work truck til snow hits the ground!!....and the ol 64 'skier looks pretty good behind it... |
