One of the sweetest memorys of the Conduit was the black 4 speed, small block Dodge Dart.
It was the day after Thanksgiving.
We got them for 18 large (total) Heavy covered a lot of the side money. With Froggys 64 Belevdere. They carried a tape recorder in the car. We gave then 1 and the break. You heard the dart shift though into 4 gear. Then you heard a defening roar as the hemi went by. Then silence.
We would not pop the hood. But we let one of their guys feel around the oil pan for the cross bolts, Which we had covered over with bondo and smoothed over.
I told Froggy to make sure the dart left, because I knew they wouyldn't run once the saw how we ran. He almost waited to long. We got by them about 150 feet before the finish
