I'll post a pic of my dart tomorrow, today I'll just post a warning. May cause vomiting & crying.
 
Yeah, All these nice "drivers" make me wanna just not even worry about posting Vixen. I may back her out of the shop later on this mornin and take a few.
Do it, I'm posting my vomit inducing dart
 
Sold my pump gas street legal ‘69 390 AMX. Ran 10.80’s @128 at corrected 6200ft early this spring
That allowed me to basically finish my ‘67 Barracuda. 400hp 360, 727 and 8 8 3/4. Fresh paint and interior. Color change on both. Original color was blue interior/exterior to 2008 Chrysler Cool Vanilla with black interior. Painted some of the trim with Eastwood cast iron paint. It looks titanium/bronze to me. It’s definitely not perfect, I painted it and did 95% of the interior.

This winter it’s getting front and rear hellwig sway bars, firm feel front suspension and 20:1 steering box, TTI step headers and remote oil filter kit. Wish I had a lift

Here she is before pops got ahold of her. Lately he has been "de racecarifying" her and it's kinda hard to watch.

The new project.

Hopefully some day I will work on it.
 
BEAUTIFUL work. As someone who has spent some time with fineline tape doing graphics, I can categorically say that 1) that layout looks perfect;, and 2) I bet it took a while.
Nope. Super easy. Phoenix Graphic sells a stencil reverse stencil kit. Shoot your matte color. Bam your done. All paint. No decal.

The Dart is a decent looking car. It's a survivor and has the wounds to prove it. The paint is buggered up on the lower part of the left front door. There's flaws if you go looking for them. I don't hide anything.

The Duster has more issues than Playboy. It runs, drives and rides pretty nice, so there's that. It needs paint, could use new seats, and I really need to swap those wheels with a set of rally's.

Top photo is my 70 Dart Custom on it's maiden voyage when I bought in 1992. Transmission was cooked, brakes were shot, no exhaust, rusty front fenders, but I only paid $70.00 for it, including the sbp rallye wheels. Second one is not long after all the bodywork and paint was done in 2003, had not put all the stainless back on it yet.

Sold it in 2011 after tens of thousands of fun miles and a couple hundred trips down the drag strip. Probably should have kept it.
 
Didn't get a chance to pull Vixen out today. Maybe tomorrow. She's mad, too.
 
I stand corrected. That is why we see some AMXs and Javelins at Mopar shows. That being said, I was glad nobody ever tried to include Mecedes cars into the Mopar fold since Daimler Benz owned Chrysler for a while.

I was thinking about saving this, and turning in my Mopar card, since Benz is now a part of Mopar. Decided to scrap it instead.
