1965 DART GT 273 4BBL

Bought a 65 Dart Gt when I was stationed at Dyess Air Force base in Abilene, Texas in 1966. It was used but I really like the looks. Was painted canary yellow with a black vinyl landau roof, Cragar mags, black interior (bucket seats), 4-speed transmission, and a Charger 273. Great little car, remember going against a '65 GTO with a 389 and won our little race!!
Soon after I bought it I was at Mack Eplen's Drivateria ( like a Sonic ) eating a hamburger in the car when a black Dodge Monaco pulled in next to me. Man rolled down his window and asked me how I liked the Dart. Told him that I really liked it . He said that was good and that he had owned the car but had to trade it in because it was to small for him. (He was a rather big man.) Bought himself a Monaco and was pleased with it. We chatted for a while, but before he left he told me that expected me to take GOOD care of the Dart. Said that he would be on the look out for me to be sure that I did. Told him that I would take care of it.
Every once and a while he would pull up beside me and give me a thumbs up. Needless to say I kept it washed and waxed!!
Took my girlfriend on many dates ( wound up marrying her) in that car and a lot of trips to Albuquerque, Houston, and Del Rio. Lot of fun driving that Dart, lot of good memories.
Do not have that canary yellow Dart now, wish I did, but I do have a aqua blue '65 Dart GT with a white top, white bucket seats, automatic transmission (miss the 4-speed ), Cragar mags, and a Charger 273.
Like others I do not want anything else!! Hope you are enjoying yours too.
