That is a damned good looking ride and the workmanship looks great! You should be very proud. I’d be driving that with a big old cheesy grin plastered all over my face.

Thank you! The best part is opening the tri power. It runs off the center carb until half throttle and then the linkage opens the other 2. With your foot on the floor, you can hear the suction of gobs of atmosphere being converted to fire and power. That's when the grin happens.

Tri powers are cool.



Both 66s. Hard top is the 389 TP.
The convertible is a 400 4bbl.
Both with Muncie 4 speed.



We still haven't raced them side by side yet.

Wow, those are beautiful. Twin Goats! I'm drooling.

The Bonneville is an original tri-power car. I’m taking it off this year and putting dual quads on it. It was tough finding an original Offy dual quad intake manifold for it. Now we’re starting to see some real cars! Thanks guys!

I've forgotten what it is, but it'll be cool when l finish fixin it up!

You should stick with the original paint. The red highlights are awesome!

Mines in a little better shape than yours Hack.

Now we're talkin'! She's simply beautiful. I have always been a Mopar man. My Buick is actually the first GM car I have ever owned.

My first car was a 69 Super Bee with the 6-pack hood, 440, orange, 4 speed. My second car was a 69 Road Runner with a 440HP/4BBL. I had them both at the same time at one point and LOVED them. They were both stolen from a storage facility while I was in Kuwait and the insurance gave me next to nothing for them. Values would be different now. Somewhere in a box I have pictures of them.

I had a 1970 B5 blue with white interior and white stripe air-grabber hooded 440 4bbl GTX automatic. Pretty car! Had to sell it when I needed money when I was injured and out of work.

Here's my 56 f-100:

I wanted to keep it mostly all stock when I restored it, but did a few upgrades. I built a 1964 292 (Y-block) lower end with 1957 312 heads & intake W/600 Holley. Emerso vintage headers, Top-loader 4-speed and the original rear end with 391 gears. It was originally a 'color style D' (baby-blue) color, but I repainted it with a 1984 Ford acrylic-enamel color called 'Bright Blue'. The Spoke Rims are a vintage Kelsey Hayes brand that were an option on 1955-1963-era Chrysler 300 cars & just happened to have the same 5 on 5-1/2" bolt patern.

You're killing me!

 

[Wicked_Daddy]

Sweet F100! Pics of the motor please! I need my fix!

 

[Whitetrashrocker]

You're killing me!

How about a 73 dart with a 360.
The newest to the fleet.

Now some real cars are starting to show up! Nice job guys!

When I was 8, our neighbor bought a new Dart Swinger in white with a big flower design on it with "Swinger" next to it. I thought it was the ugliest car I had ever seen. Meanwhile the super cool guy across the street had a red and black Olds 442. And my Mom and Grandmother were both driving 1970 Boss 429 Mustangs (that side of the family were all hot rodders). I guess these comparisons didn't help the Dart. But this Dart looks awesome. Just love on that motor and she'll be living up to her potential.

BTW, is that your shop?
