65 Dart Charger, CA car now in Southern IL.

Another one bites the dust due good 'ol Uncle Sam. Gotta sell something to fund other projects, taxes took all my Surplus $.

Anyway....Whhaaaaa, right?

65 Dart Charger, Auto, Console, 273 4bbl. Runs good, great daily driver. seems a little tired, stumbles a little when you punch it. Figured it was from the rebuilt carb need tuning. Supposedly on the Dart Charger Registry (according to the guy I bought it from, not the guy on the title, that story is below), haven't been able to find that registry online so I can't confirm. Either way, it has all the tell tale features of a Dart Charger.

Located 1.5 hrs southeast of St. Louis Mo, in Southern Illinois. Carbondale IL.

Originally from San Jose, CA area, then went up to Napa CA, was restored in the 90's and was a daily driver. Was a good quality job. has a few chips, scratches, and a couple of bubbles starting. The paint still shines and is great as a daily driver. As usual, the candy canes are a little beat. The car was sold three different times and never titled until I got it. I tracked down the guy on the title and that's the guy who'd owned it since the mid 80's and restored it. Met him in person up in Napa CA, he gave me some original paperwork and a couple of pictures of it during resto, original owner's manual and a couple of parts he still had.

What it needs: Two new front tires. Trunk lid gasket. Heater core installed (I may still get that and a new blower motor installed, if I get time). Rear window trim installed. Interior is worn and it needs new seat covers but they're fine for a daily driver. Speedo hooked up (doesn't work, haven't looked to see what the prob is).

What has been done recently: Rebuilt original carb (special carb for 273 four barrel). New master cylinder and one brake/wheel cylinder. I bought and installed one of Slant 6 Dan's turn signals $95 works great. New fuel pump.

What comes with the car, not installed: Extra trim (lots), window cranks, solid state dist (can't remember brand at the moment), two NOS tail light lenses, One older lens and bezel assy, extra correct PN carb that came off a running car. Heater core, Blower motor.

I have a few other things that I could sell pretty cheap to sweeten the deal.
- Front Disc Brakes from a 73 Dart, includes the upper A-Arms - $250
- A body 8-3/4. Pretty sure it's a 741, highway gears, def not a 489 - $300. The drums were beat up pretty good trying to get them off. I didn't do it.

Sorry, you only get the brakes and 8-3/4 that cheap if you buy the car.

Looking to get $6500 for the car.

I have a truck and trailer. For gas $ and a little $ for my time, I could be talked into delivering it a somewhat short distance. Maybe a couple hundred miles or so. We can work it out.

Thanks for checking it out,
