Rescue Mission- '71 Dart GT saved from the scrappers!

Good looking Dart, GTX. Interesting combination with the hubcaps and body-matching painted wheels.

Thanks. The wheels were originally black with full caps on them but I wanted them body color with dog dishes. I went to Coach Color and they matched up a pint for me and I sprayed them and cleared them shortly after.

Nice Dart Ben! Love that butterscotch color too.

That makes two of us.

Ben- you were?! That's just too funny. Well I'm glad you didn't go any higher, I was at my self-imposed limit! :-D Although honestly, the butterscotch GT is in really good shape. Not sure I've seen one so clean and rust free. But it definitely has a lot of dents, and I've already posted that the "blown head gasket" turned out to be a blown head gasket, a bunch of bent valves, and now a flat cam. Thinking its 184k original miles and not 84k. But that's alright! If I hadn't gotten it I might not have bought the bronze GT, wouldn't have known anything about it if I hadn't already done the research. BTW, that's a nice looking swinger, really is a twin to the GT, looks to have almost all the same options as far as color and trim go.

I was kind of at my limit as well. I was going to make one more bid on it but decided not to. If you ever decide to part with it, please let me know. BTW: Sorry to semi-hijack your thread.
