      Daniel Donahue, Dodge Demon was one year only in 2018. No way could this Mustang beat one. 6.7 in 1/8 mile is 10.45 in 1/4 mile. Dodge Demon quicker than that. Mid to high 9's easily.

    This car makes me piss my pants. Used to dream about this car when I was in high school back in 68. The 68 1/2 428 Mustang GT laid waste to the competition at the 68 Winter NATs. I still want one.

      A friend of mine in the late 70s had a 68 and a half GT coupe. With a 428 Cobra Jet. It was white with a black vinyl top and Red C stripe automatic transmission. Extremely rare car. He sold it for $700.

      Roger Beutler Actually I thought he was kinda slow with his shifting. I know back in the 60’s and 70’s when I use to race that me and several of my friends could shift fast enough you would think it was an automatic. Try watching a video of Grumpy Jenkins or Ronnie Sox or Bob Glidden.

      @@adamstampley7207 If you are looking at the green light by the time you leave, you are "sleeping" on the lights! Always try to leave when the last yellow is on, and before the green. Because by the time your brain reacts to the light, and your car reacts to your command, the green will come on.
      Cutting a good close reaction time to the lights is the name of the game. It takes a bit of practice, but when you get it right, you will always have a good race on your hands!

      The 68 Dart was not equipped with a hemi from the factory. The 383 was the biggest engine that Chrysler installed in the 68 Dart. So your comparison is invalid. If you want to do a dream comparison then how about a 68 hemi Dart against a 427 sohc in a 68 Mustang?
