Well this was an interesting vintage thread resurrection.
Well this was an interesting vintage thread resurrection.
In the mid 70's, I bought a 67 Dart and a 67 Barracuda parts car to help fix up the Dart. Then I bought a repo 70 Duster 340 car with the engine and trans gone but still had the 8 3/4 in it so in the Dart the rear end went. Then I noticed that the complete interior from the Duster would probably fit the Dart and it did! Buckets and all went in. Fast forward several years when I parted the Dart and when I pulled the buckets out, one fell over and the sun caught something bright. It was a clear sandwich baggie with a good ounce of brown pot in it! I had been driving that car for years and driving it hard. The rear had a 3.91 gear and it would scream. Once I even got a ticket for excessive noise by spinning the tires. This was when you could spend 2 years in jail for possession of pot. Man, from then on, I go over ALL used cars with a fine tooth comb before driving them!
