    Thanks for your words. I was planning to use 68 front grilles on my past dart. When I sold it, I sold spare parts. The actual dart, the one I rescued from a junkyard, I will try to use all possible Brazilian stock parts. I have its matching number engine (yet not rebuild) wich I will use in...

    I also installed taillights they look like 68 US tail lights, but Brazilian are plastic (or acrilic). In special, the model of my dart (dart SE) they are black. My old dart (the 76 model) used a totally different taillight. in a near future, I will use the metal taillights. Just have to buy a...
