Yeah, my bros' had the tail stripe too, with the Swinger logo knocked out of the flat black. 340 six pack with 4 speed Hurst and a locker dif. KaBOOM!
I think my slant was only running on 5 cylinders, I lost a drag race against a Prius lol. It had enough power to blow off the rusty muffler. I got laughed at by all six passengers, there were some good times in that car. The guy I sold it to said the guy he sold it to still has it, and it’s been somewhat restored, so it’s literally in a better place lol

The 340 is such a great engine. I always wanted an Aussie charger with a 340 but they only made around 120 of them and they are almost impossible to find. The 340 was meant to be mated to a 4 speed for local racing in the early 70’s but the supercar scare put an end to it. Chrysler fitted a 727 and sold them as a luxury model.

A good friend of mine who passed this year had a 65 Valiant wagon with a hot slant fitted with triple 45 side draft webers. the sound!

That's nice 👍
 
Same exact way @yoothgeye does.

Just need a little forward momentum. I can push off going up hills as well. Have to sit forward when climbing steep hills, front lifts slightly.
Wish I tried tall bikes sooner! Visibility is one of the best parts. It's easy, a lot of fun and pretty quick too... Going up, staying up.

ciao

You make mount/dismount look easy.
