    Zero to 60 in 10 to 15 minutes with a 100hp slant 6 in that 2 ton behemoth.

    That thing had a slant 6? OMG

    Maybe that's where the "money saving" part came in. So long as you aren't in a hurry, I guess that's alright....

    That was the Ur-Dart.
    At one point, the plan had been to make Dart a standalone Mopar brand, if memory serves.
    Chrysler-Plymouth-Dodge got really weird in the late 50s/early 60s.
    Come to think of it, they pretty much stayed weird...

    For comparison, the previous generation 4-door Dodge Charger has a 120” wheelbase. It just doesn’t have three feet of bodywork and chrome bumpers hanging off either end of it.

    I had a '63 or '64 Dodge Polara. Red. That car would haul a** and drove like a dream. I don't know why I sold it. I was about 18 or older. I'm thinking '64 was more like it.

    I had a ‘67 Dodge Dart GT with a 273 V8 four barrel. Really nice car. My second car. Bought it used around 1974.

    My cousin had one of those. Buckets with a console. It was sweet.

    My Polara had bucket seats and a console too. It was really a nice car. ;)

    In my area bobcats are pretty rare. I've only seen one since I was 12yrs old. That one came in while I was calling coyotes. I won't shoot bobcats or foxes, they are just in the last few years starting to come back.

    They're pretty common here, although it has been a couple of years - until today - that I've seen one in our yard.
    We've seen a mom (I presume) and little ones (kittens? boblings?) a couple of times during the summers over the years here. Adorbsable. No photos, unfortunately. :p
    I emailed our neighbors to see if this one (or others) turn up on their gamecam.
    Our own gamecam got attacked a few years back by a woodpecker :o and I haven't replaced it to date. :|
