1968 Dart. Rock Solid Bracket / Index Car.
Car is actually a 1967 Dart with 1968 Grille. Included in sale is a pair of nice 1968 Dart Tail Lights to complete the clone/tribute. Side marker lights and fuel fill gas cap have been deleted and filled in.
Car runs consistent 10.40’s @ 126mph in 2800/3000 Density Altitude. Included are individual weight bars in trunk to slow the car down to 10.50, 10.60, 10.75, 10.90, etc, whatever needs be. Weight Bars are bolted into the frame with 1/2” grade bolts.
Car launches straight and goes straight, stops on a dime and will hook in the rain.
Car pulls the front wheels about 12" for about 15 feet out from start line.
Consistent 1.45 / 1.47 60 foots. Runs a 50/50 mix of 91 pump and 110 Race Gas for a more economical fuel cost. Timing set at 35 degrees.
Cowl Mounted Fuel Pressure Gauge and Vacuum Gauge. Moroso Rear Bumper mounted Shut-Off Switch.
Chassis: 2800lbs without driver
Fiberglass Hood & Front and Rear Bumpers. Lexan Windshield, Back Window & Quarter Windows. Roll Up and Down Driver and Passenger Glass Windows. Interior of doors have been gutted. Poly Seat solidly bolted to chassis. Has Headliner. Aluminum Inserted Dashboard for switches and Gauges.
12 point cage that can easily be certified to 8.50 if desired.
Complete Mustang II Rack & Pinion Steering setup. No K-Member or torsion bars. Competition Engineering 3 way adjustable front shocks.
Wilwood Slotted Rotor Disc Brakes with Aluminum Hubs in Front. Drum Brakes in Rear.
Chris Alston Chassis Engineering Back Half provides plenty of room for up to 15” Wide Rear Wheels and much bigger tires. 15x12 Billet Specialties Wheels. 31” Bias Phoenix tires with 13.5” tread width. Only 51 well documented runs of those tires. Cal Trac Split Mono-Leaf Rear Springs in conjunction with Competition Engineering Link/Leaf traction Bar setup with KONI Adjustable shocks. Chris Alston Anti-Roll Bar setup launches the car straight and true.

Front Motor Plate plus fabricated Steel Motor Mounts. Alternator mounted on Motor Plate. Belt Driven Electric Water Pump and Fan. Hooker 2” Fenderwell Headers. Moroso Cool Can. Jegs Radiator.
