Blue 64 Dart GT

I thought I would post a few pictures of my 64 Dart GT restoration. I purchased the car from Georgia in 2010 and had it transported to Springfield, Missouri. I thought it would be a good "learning" project since I worked at O'Reilly Auto Parts.

I bought it only seeing pictures of the car. The person selling it told me that he could not find any rust so I thought it would be worth taking a chance on. It was my first Mopar so I was pretty excited. I had also heard good things about the slant six.

After getting the car it was not in as great condition as advertised. There were some obvious bubbling under the paint in places so I decided to see about getting a few "spots" fixed up. Those few spots have turned into pretty much a complete restoration as you'll see in my pictures.

It's been a very long two years and the car is just about ready to get completely painted. The car is in really good hands at the moment. After having a local person start restoration work on the car in 2010, I finally got in contact with one of the best in the business, Mike Roeder, in Rolla Missouri. He is the owner of Roeder Restoration. I think you'll see here that his work speaks for itself.

Anyway, enough with the talk. I'll post some of the pictures of the car to show what's been done so far. It hasn't made it to the paint booth yet but will be soon.
