Re: '66 Dodge D-Dart at Mecum auction
Well if it's and "Inland", its an "Inland".
It looks to be. I guess I wasn't looking at the picture, I just assumed
it would be a Hurst Comp/Plus on a factory package.
Going by the description of shifts between 2nd and 3rd, thats the
M.O. for an "Inland".
Whats that, about 12" between throws for shifting?
Now the crazy question. Why would they leave in the horrible "Inland" shifter, and pop on nice Cragar S/S wheels and 7" slicks. And who installed the headers, if they they came in the trunk from the factory
with the "Y" pipe connector.
I don't have the complete Car Craft article.
For Alan, Good luck on trying to find a Holley rebuild kit for the
List #3778. The only thing I could come up with is, the carb came standard with F-66 Stock jetting, 134-21 metering-plate and a 6.5
power valve. The other items i mentioned previously were changed made at Chrysler Performance, before the car left the factory.
