Today is a SAD day. I went to look at it and I wish this guy would've sold it to me 10 years ago when I started asking him. There was a somewhat large embellishment in descrpition of the car. I think it was more of his perception than the reality of what it actually is. The great part is the...

I'm in Portsmouth, Virginia. The car is an all original la273 engine, floor console shift, a/c, powersteering, 8 3/4 differential. It is said to have only 1 hole in each lower quarter panel, I'll really find out when I get there, but he says the rest of the body is straight. The dash as he...

Quite some time ago I was on here because I had a frien of mine that was going to sell me his 69 Dodge Dart gt, all original which has been sitting in a garage untouched since 1989. Well after some time he backed out on the deal and I was devastated. All that research time, anticipation, and...

I like the dart body website, however my whole budget is about 7k, so I have to be carefull on what I get.

Oh yeah my plan is to keep for myself ultimately. As I've told her don't look at it as it is now, rather look at what it can be. So for her to look at one in a raw state might spur her creative thinking process.

I actually only like 2 Corvette's a 67 Stingray and 63 Split window and to own those I'd have to win the lottery, so I don't see that happening. I thought about the beater thing, we joked around and I told her I was going to get her an old Buick or an Olds, and make it something of a battering...

Yeah, I know...haha

I can say our friendship is solid so there are no worries there. Most of those 9 yrs we would half way kid around about it, the las year or so is when it got serious. He did him and haw for a while like normal, then one day I asked him again after a real heart to heart conversation about it to...

I'vee been trying to buy this car for the past 9 yrs, when his dad was alive. It just sits in the garage, that's all. Over and over I've asked him if he was ever going to do anything with it and his response was always, one day when I get around to it. We're best of friends so this will not...

Well this 69 Dart gt I've been telling everyone that I was getting is now NOT going to happen. Yesterday I got the text from the friend who was supposed to sell it to me and basically he got selers remorse before selling it. This was a garage kept car for 25 yrs that was his dad's that passed...

That was a great source of info thank you!

As far as pistons go, I'll see what the differences between Egge and Katners are

Sorry txstang84 if things got confused. I was just meerly remarking as to why I was staying with the 273, hopefully no hard feelings.

Yeah, this will only be a daily driver

What was the brand of the first hydraulic cam you used? I do appreciate you sharing this information with me

I know exactly Knox auto is

I originally posted this in the body forum but I wanted to broaden my scope of audience Getting a 69 Dart gt that I need rear lower quarters put into and of course painted. I figured there's somebody here who knows or does this work in the Tidewater area preferrably on the side. Cash is always...

I will be buying a master kit with everything inclusive, bands, steel, etc. and a stock converter. I've just called Summit and Jegs and they recommended some of what I thought to be high priced kits, about $299 plus $175 for a converter and I know I can buy one for about $199 and $125 for a...

The reason I'm staying with the 273 is because of the originality of the car. I'm buying it from a friend of mine that was his dad's and has been sitting in his garage since 1989. Nothing has been done to this car outside of maintenance, it's all original. His dad ordered it from Dodge and it...

Next time I come to HI, I'll come see you at Hickam. It appears you've attempted a lot of combinations

Getting a 69 Dart gt that I need rear lower quarters put into and of course painted. I figured there's somebody here who knows or does this work in the Tidewater area preferrably on the side. Cash is always good!! I could go to any number of good body shops, however like any resto project...

I'm getting a 69 Dart gt-auto with a 273. I'm goin to have the trans rebuilt since it's been sitting in a garage for the last 25 yrs. I want to know what's a good kit to use. Of course I'm going to get a master kit with a shift kit in it and coverter. What do you reccomend?

"If they would all detonate no one would be happy." Not sure what you mean by that? The 9.6/1 is your final ratio I take it. Do you run 87 octane or CAN you I should ask? Is the performance ok? Not sure what the timing has to be with these given my cam selection. Is it somewhere around 8deg...

How much do the Kanter's run? Am I gonna HAVE to run 91 octane if I go with the higher compression ones?

The reason why I was thinking about using Edelbrock was becasue all three are a "matched" component set, up to about 5500 rpm. If there are other cam, intake, carb set up's that work well together, even if they are from different manufacturers please let me know. I'd like to see the imput on...

Originally I didn't know if it had powersteering, but now that I found out it does, I don't have to think about a change over.

Your probably right, I was thinking that if if is functionally ok then the seals maybe the only thing in question, but I will probably just by a reman.

You're right Molly Orange, but when I looked at those colors I might go with the Persimmon with a white stripe in the back

I just found out the car has factory power steering!!!!! So I talked to A1 Cardone and they list all the parts but don't have any, they said their inventory is obsolete on this, however there are internet companies that have bought it out and to get it from them. I'm thinking this stuff works...

Thanks, I'll try to remember this when I tackle it this spring.
