    Finally did it! Bought a Dart. Uhhhh… hmmm.

    I already have the Dutra book! It came in the mail a few days ago. And it DOES seem like an excellent resource. Thank you for confirming that!

    Thx. I love the blue. It's got a repaint that's iffy-- and I'll redo that eventually-- but it'll stay blue. And the vinyl top is in good shape. No splits or bubbles. A little loose right above the trunk where it could be hiding some rust under there. We shall see...

    OK. So this is what I have photowise. As soon as I get the car in my possession, I'll make a garage album and flesh it out. In the meantime...let me know how crazy I am. :lol:

    Very much obliged for the wishes. Teasing or otherwise, you ARE right. If I’m gonna go all “look at me!” I should have the goods to show. Lol. I’m really psyched that the forums seem so active and interested and people even CARE to see the car, because as I posted initially—despite my age—I’m...

    Thank you sir. RE: "this thread is useless without photos"-- I totally agree. I got a little excited after the purchase and jumped right in. But I wish I had taken my own photos when I picked up the title. Then I'd have started off on a better foot. As soon as I hear from the seller, I'll post...

    I've actually already downloaded that. The photos are murky on the scans in the PDF, so I might buy a copy down the line. Do you know if the printed version has better photos or is it just the old photo reproduction quality was lousy even at the time?

    I’m more excited to post them than I’m sure you’ll be to see them. I don’t have my own photos yet because I can’t actually pick up the car until after I have back surgery this Thursday (11/18). So it’ll be a few weeks to get the car. The purchase is done, and I do have the title. I’ll ask...

    Hello Canada! Thanks! Pics will be coming when I actually pick up the car. I have the title, but the Seller is holding it for me til after the surgery. Don’t have time to get it before. One of my very favorite YouTube guys is from your side of the border. Halfasskustoms. I think he’s in...

    Finally did it! Bought a Dart. Uhhhh… hmmm.

    Will do. I have the title and have paid for the car, but the seller is kindly holding it for me until after the surgery. Don’t have time to get it before. I’m going to do a very minor YouTube series on it I think. Just to keep a record of my insanity and so my brother can laugh his as* off at...

    Thanks. I’d love to get a lift. But I’m not sure my tiny garage can handle it.

    Hello forum, I’m totally new to A bodies, wrenching, and automotive science. But I grew up with Darts in the late 60s and 70s, and ALWAYS have wanted one. Life is getting shorter, so I went and got one. 74 swinger in “repainted” b5 blue. 225 1 barrel with an automatic transmission. Starts on...
