Yes I did, but I had to leave by noon. Didn't spend much time by my car - kept going back to the swap meet. Had a good time!

I am so happy I went to the spring fling, I scored the Holy Grail of 64-66 Dart convertible parts - the header seal retainer! It wasn't perfect, but 10x better than what was left of mine. I picked up a few other knick nacks and gained a lot of resources for other parts.

Hopefully I can make it Saturday or Sunday. Looking for parts for a 65 Dart gt convertible. Looking for alignment bolt that on the header of the top (the whole header would be nice), Header seal retainer, and passenger armrest. If anyone has those please let me know.

I removed the seal retainer today and it looks like the old top is glued down pretty well. No need to worry about it coming off while I figure out a replacement.

I have a 1965 Dodge Dart. The seal retainer is c shaped with a flange that comes off of it. Here is a simple ascii art version: C ..\ I've already pulled out the seal in the pictures. My next step is to remove the seal retainer, but once its off there is no going back...

I'm getting close to redoing my top, but before I start I need to figure out what to do with my header seal retainer. It is in no condition to re-use once I remove it. Will the top remain attached to the header bar when I remove the retainer? I'd like to remove the retainer so I can begin to...

Take my money, please!

I've got a transmission leak in in my 65 dart with a floor shifter and cable shift selector. It looks like the leak is from where the kickdown lever connects. Does this transmission have the same seal that is used on later transmissions? Anyone have a recommendation for a transmission shop in...

Not mine but thought someone might be interested. 1965 Dodge Dart GT Convertible - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle...

Just a note - I installed the 74" lap belts from Wesco and they are too long. I will be switching them out to the 60" belts when they arrive.

I found this in the the 66 dart shop manual. It gives some more info with a possible 3rd seatbelt option in the back seat.

Thanks for posting the pictures, and thanks to Lee for taking them. I didn't see any holes there, but at least I'll know we're to put them (with some big thick washers).

I recently purchased a 65 Dart GT convertible without rear seatbelts. I searched the forums and it seems like lap belts were an option, but I can't find the mounting points. Can somebody point them out on my picture? While 3 point belts would be nice, lap belts are better than nothing for...
