WOW! So much empty. I've had a rough 3+ years. My partner was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer in early 2022 and passed away right before thanksgiving 2024. In 2023 we took the Dart on many road trips for breakfast with friends. These pictures are from a trip with 6 people in the Dart...

I responded to a Facebook post seeking an older car for a music video. And, voila! I haven't done much work to the Dart in awhile, but still drive around on the regular. This was a 100 mile round trip so that was fun. Fumbling Music Video

Now to get started on that new truck project! I haven't had an update on my dart in like forever!
