A good running 66 Dodge Dart convertible with a 273 V-8 and automatic transmission. This car has had a 1963 Dart front clip put on it so it looks like a 63 Dart from the front. We bought this car as a project and rebuilt the front suspension and installed a 1 1/8 diameter front anti-sway bar. The carburetor, & alternator were replaced, the radiator cleaned and the engine was given a good tune-up, including a valve adjustment. The engine starts right-up and runs strong. Everything works, including the power top. This is a solid California car with just a little "pin-hole" rust, behind the right rear wheel and on the rear floor. This minor rust has been cleaned, treated & repaired. The chrome trim has some minor dings & scratches. The automatic transmission shifts strong and this is the first year for mechanical shift linkage w/ the "slip-in" rear U-joint yoke. This set-up makes it easy to swap-in all the other later Mopar LA engines and automatic transmissions. The brakes work well and were inspected. Everything was clean & in order, with lot's of brake shoe lining left. (10 inch drum brakes) The convertible top has been replaced and is in great condition, including the plastic rear window. (clear & no damage) The inner top "well" has been replaced with tan vinyl material. We no longer have time to complete this project so we are selling this car "as-is". The car still needs final sand-out and paint. (It is in white primer) The interior needs to be redone but the floors are solid & the original black color door panels are all in good condition. The original jack is in the trunk and there is a new spare. Things needed: The speedometer has a needle bounce and the turn single switch does not "cancel". (all lights work) This car is in driving condition with a clear title and original California "Black & Yellow" plates.\ Fly-in and drive away... for Summer fun or for a restoration project. Must sell - No reserve & no BS... This is a nice car as it is now and it has the potential to be a great car, with the addition of some interior & paint work.
