    1969 Dart headlight switch bezel

    I'm looking to purchase new headlight switch, wiper and hazard bezels for my 69 project, I've hit a road block on the repop suppliers for that listing. Im thinking they are the same as 70-72 Dart , but not 100% . Any help would be appreciated.

    69 Dart B3 blue interior options

    A shot in the dark, but if there is an answer out there here is where I'll find it. I'm looking for anyone with a 69 Dart B-3 exterior, I'm restoring the interior to as close to original as possible. According to my broadcast sheet the upper door frame is B-7. I've purchase paint from Classic...

    1969 Dart interior paint colors resources

    My car is completely disassembled dash frame out, steering column, door cards, all interior trim. Obviously everything has paint on it, it's just 52 years old and difficult to determine what color it was.

    Wheel colors

    Beautiful 70, color looks great on that car! I like the black wheels as well, I considered black wheels thinking body color would be too much gold (GY8) still on the fence.

    318 cylinder head upgrade

    I have a 318 in my 71 Dart, I swapped the cam to a step above stock, Edelbrock intake and headers. The bottom half is stock. I am considering a head swap but with the pedestrian 8.5 - 1 compression ratio I want to select the proper cylinder head to not decrease the compression ratio further...

    Wheel colors

    I'm putting together a 69 Dart ( was a slant car ) now and planning on going 15" SBP. I upgraded the 9" drum to KH disc brakes up front and 10" drums in the rear. Wheel Vintique make the wheels.

    Wheel colors

    I believe I stand corrected, I checked the wheel after you questioned my post. It must be an aftermarket wheel no pentastar stamp on it. If you know 14" SBP wheels I'm satisfied with the wheels. I've been searching for them for about 6 months, (still looking for 2 5 1/2" wide for the front) very...

    Here is a picture. It's difficult to see but maybe you can shed some light if they are original or not. Thanks

    Dan, I've retained the 10" drums up front so clearance isn't an issue. I would like to use the BFG T/A 's I have on the car now, so I need to locate 2 SBP 5.5" wide.

    Wheel colors

    Body color wheels do look great. As I said in my post there are few options for 14 " SBP wheels so I opted for the ralley wheels so I could increase the width of tire. I've recently picked up original steel 7" wide wheels that need paint, looking for other options. Thank for the reply.

    Wheel colors

    I'm contemplating painting steel wheels for my 71 Swinger black rather than body color (GY8) and use the original dogdish caps. Post your pics to help my decision. I'm not crazy about the ralley wheels, if you run 14" SBP you will understand.
