2 cars I'd like to own, but probably nobody will. 1969 Mustang "twisted Hemi" 429. only 500 made so Ford could run the heads in Nascar. No dyno's done cause Ford wouldn't let them but guesstimates were between 570 to 600 horse...from the factory in 69!
The other, even more rare is a 69 Dodge dart called a Dart X. Only saw a Hot Rod magazine on it. Less than 100 made. no undercoating, no insulation, no back seat, just aluminum sheeting. No window cranks, just a canvas strap to hold it up or unsnap it to lower it. Battery located in the trunk. The ENTIRE body, once assembled, but b4 painting was acid dipped to lower weight further. Came with Hooker headers and dual exhaust with cutouts. With street tires (9" wide) it ran 9.80 quarter mile, and smoked the tires a quarter of the way down the track. They didnt have time to put slicks on it, darn it. They said honestly it would hit upper 8's in the quarter mile with good tires. And this was with the completely stock motor. Oh yeah, the motor. Only one available was a 426 hemi with dual quad carbs....... I found a reference to the Mustang, but not the Dart http://www.hotrod.com/articles/muscle-car-rewind-2/ |
