The Dollar Dart
Well, after 7 long years, the Dollar Darts back on the road. It's been a fun long journey, but it has finally been completed (For the most part).
My original post from 2009
Just purchased my first 1964 Dodge Dart.
Its a 2 door post with a slant 6 in it.
Not much needed to get it runnin, but here are pics..
Oh yah, did i mention i bought it for $1.00!!!!!
And here' the build thread
Lets hope I can remember everything. I'll try my best to keep it all in some what of a time frame.
So after the purchase of the car it really sat till January 2015 till one day my dad and I decided it was time to get started and finish it.
We started by gutting the interior, removing all of the trim and windows, and getting it ready to remove the motor.
I picked up a set of buckets from the scrap yard that were in a 65 Dart, hoping maybe I would end up with them in the car when finished.
So after the interior was gutted in January 2015, with the help from my little brother, we removed the engine and loaded it up on the trailer in August 2015.
And off to paint it went on August 10, 2015.
So after a couple months at the body shop, I finally picked up the car in November 2015.
While it was there I sent out the grill and bumpers to the polishing shop, and did all of the rest of the trim at my house.
