    Here’s the Dutra dual, 2bbl / in the ‘67 Dart I fixed up in the late 90s. I think it lives in Texas now.

    Well here’s the Before and After pics ready to install. It turned out way better than I expected. Thanks for all the input everyone!

    Probably the most expensive 1965 Dart ever.

    Not to me either, but someone thought it was. Cars are only worth what people will pay for them.

    Probably the most expensive 1965 Dart ever.

    When a 65 /6 4-dr is worth more than a Dart Charger. Sorry Ulf. ;-) NIRVANA: KURT COBAIN PERSONALLY OWNED 1965 DODGE DART - WITH NFT •

    Options to repair or replace driver's side fresh air vent door.

    I decided to go with repairing the existing hinge. I just had a buddy weld the hinge, he did a great job and getting the rest ready for paint. It’s looking like it’s going to turn out great! I’ve already got the foam seals from a DMT firewall kit I ordered months ago. BTW. If anyone is...

    [WANTED] Driver's side fresh air vent for 1965 Dart

    Thought I'd see if anyone has one of these in decent shape they'd be willing to part with before I try to repair this one with a broken hinge.

    Options to repair or replace driver's side fresh air vent door.

    I think I’ll try that route. That hinge is pretty rusted though. Must have leaked water and drained there at one time.

    Options to repair or replace driver's side fresh air vent door.

    The driver's side fresh air vent door hinge is broken on my 1965 Dart. Looks like the bottom hinge rusted shut and it broke the hinge bracket off at the bottom when someone tried to force it open. The vent box itself is in pretty good shape. I could reuse the duct if I punch out the rivets and...

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    The brake light switch was faulty. I replaced it with this. It wasn’t $9.95. :) Works great now.

    Of course had I RTFM better I would have found this and it would have explained everything.

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    Okay I get it now. Thanks for that explanation! So if D3 is power from fuse box and power is always routed through the SL Switch to D4 to the TS switch what is L8 doing?

    Have any of you purchased from Deception Pass Motor Parts?

    LOL! It's named after Deception Pass which is a pretty popular natural feature with a spectacular bridge in the area where the business is located.

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    Okay I think I understand a little better how the stop switch might work on the 65 Dart. On the 65 the rear turn lights are just the brake lights turning off and on. When stop switch plunger is released it sends power to the brake/turn lights regardless of key position. When the key is in the on...

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    Looking at the wiring diagram again. It does look like the stop switch power is connected with the turn signal switch. It looks like the wire at the back of the stop switch D4 is activated by releasing the plunger and power goes to the cluster and to the turn switch. I’m still learning to read...

    1965 Dart front disc brake conversion low brake pedal

    I don't know. I suppose I'd have to drain and look in the MC to tell for sure? Is there another way to tell? From full neutral to where the brake pedal starts getting hard to push by hand, the pedal play is about 2.5".

    1965 Dart front disc brake conversion low brake pedal

    From what I can see the rod is not adjustable. I thought maybe I was missing something. I think I will try an adjustable rod.

    1965 Dart front disc brake conversion low brake pedal

    It’s up nearly as much as it was when I brought it in. It is about 2 cm down from where it was. Is the stock rod adjustable?

    1965 Dart front disc brake conversion low brake pedal

    So I had a shop install the Dr Diff front disc brake kit. I had a cast iron disc/drum brake master cylinder laying around that I bought in error when I replaced the single pot master cylinder a couple years ago so I had them install that. Also installed the correct proportioning valve...

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    No power on the back of the switch when in any position. 12V Power coming into the switch. No hazards on a 65. I think the switch is fried. I think the shop didn’t disconnect the battery and fried the switch. I was looking at the wiring diagram on my 65 Dart Service Manual and it doesn’t look...

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    Wouldn’t the turn signal switch failure make the turn signals not work? The turn lights are working and there is voltage to the brake light switch.

    That’s strange, mine has only one wire coming from the back.

    '65 Dart No brake lights. Brake light switch failure?

    So I took the Dart to a shop to have a Dr Diff front disc brake kit put on. I get it home and no brake lights. All other lights work, just no brake lights. Brake lights fine before it went to shop. Checked the brake light switch and it's as hot as a pistol and the plunger is not quite making...

    I'm confused. I think my 65 Dart's broadcast sheet is 6/65. You can see the date on the broadcast sheet in the first three numbers in the shipping order. 623. P.S. OH I GET IT. You guys are talking about the Broadcast Rev. Yes mine is from 8/64 So in the voice of Roseanne Roseannadanna...

    I thought it was from June 65? What is the date? The fender tag build date was June 23 If anyone would like to take a crack at decoding my broadcast sheet I'd like to know what it says.
