    Rust-Free 65 Dart 270 2-Door 273/Auto in GA - Sale or Trade

    Hey Guys - Well, a week after getting my 65 back from paying someone else to finish the brakes and convert the driveshaft, it looks like I finally found a decent job, after being out of work since October. With 2 Darts to drive, I need to get something more suited to modern-day commuting, so...

    How to fill up without getting it on the damn car?

    OK, so we all know the filler necks on these cars are about as different from today's average car as they can be. Instead of immediately going downward at about a 45-degree angle, they go straight in from the side of the car about 12 inches, then turn down into the tank inside the trunk. With...

    72 Dart Fuel Tank

    Hey Guys - My 72 Dart Custom only has 58k miles on it (bought it a couple months back with 55k), and as is the case with cars that sit a lot, it's got some rust in the tank, and it's still spitting it out. I'm getting ready to rebuild the carb, and don't want to do it while the tank is still...

    HELP! Stranded!

    Hey Guys - accessing through my very basic phone, because the car has me stranded. 72 Dart Slant 6 Auto w/58k miles. No hints of any electrical issues, stopped at a friends, came back 20 mins later, hit the key & nothing. Not even the door buzzer works. Odd thing is that it has very very low...

    72 Dart 4-Door Windshield Gaskets

    Hey Guys - I just figured out that I have a slight leak in my trunk, and it's coming in around the rear windshield. I talked to a very capable guy locally that does a lot of custom stuff, and he said I needed to get the windshield gasket before he would take it out to take care of it. I need to...

    Fuel Line Mod Done - Still Having Hot Restart Issues

    72 Dart 225/Auto I just got the car, and had some issues with it being a PITA when restarting after it had been driven. As an example, I would drive somewhere, turn it off, come back 5-15 minutes later, and it acts like it's not getting fuel. It takes at least 3 tries to start it, and it acts...

    72 Dart w/1" Adapters & Police Rims = No Go

    So I really want to run Police Rims on my 72 Dart 4-door. I have 2 sitting in the garage, so I ordered some nice 1" thick billet adapters. Long story short, I bolted one adapter up, jacked the car up by the rearend, to compress the springs/shocks, and put one bare wheel on. The edge of the lip...

    Tranny & Diff Fluid Opinions

    Getting ready to drain/refill the tranny and the diff in my 72 Slant 6/Automatic. I know Dex III is recommended in the tranny, but read some people run, or you can run Type F. Opinions? Also, what are you guys running in your diffs? This is on a daily-driver. Looking for the best bang for...

    72 Slant Six running too cold

    So I got this car a week ago, and I noticed on the way home that the temp gauge showed the temp just below the first mark for the normal range. picture shows what the gauge tells me. I figured it was just because it was so cold outside, and maybe the guy yanked the thermostat at some point. A...

    Brake Boosters getting scarce?

    I just picked up a 72 Dart Custom 4-Door, 225/auto with front disks. The brake booster is without a doubt bad. In trying to find another one, neither Advance, NAPA, Oreilley's, or Autozone can get one. They all list a 50-6206 from Cardone or comparable from Wagner, but after checking with both...

    SBP to BBP Adapters & Mopar Police Wheels & Tires?

    Anyone running stock police rims on a SBP car with adapters, and if so, what size tires? I like the looks of these wheels, but not sure about using adapters, or what size tires would fit. This would be going on a 72 Dart 4-door with stock suspension. Thanks!

    Stock 14" Tire Replacement - 72 Dart

    Hey Guys - Picked up my 72 Dart Custom 4-door last night, and the ride from Birmingham to Atlanta was a handful on these old Goodyear Polyglas Belted D78-14 tires. Not only was I worried they would come to pieces, but the car acted like it was feeling every little groove in the road, and...

    Rear Hard Brake Line Size

    I'm going to replace a rear wheel cylinder in my 65 Dart tonight, and I want to replace the LH hard line between the splitter on the axle and the wheel cylinder, because some yahoo in the past thought that Vice-Grips were the best tool for the job, and they hosed up the fitting. Does anyone...

    4-link 8 3/4 in a 65 Dart?

    Anyone have an Early A-Body with a 4-link setup? I found one cheap on craigslist that says it's set up for an A-Body, but wanted some advice. Just from the ad, it looks like it's 47 3/4" flange to flange. Wondering if this thing will require mini-tubbing or what? Thanks!

    65 Dart 10" Rear Brake Hardware Kit

    Does anyone know of a place that stocks the hardware kit (all springs, retainers, etc.) for the 10" rear drums on my 65 Dart? All I see available is for the 9" brakes. Thanks!

    65 Dart 270 Interior Parts?

    The 65 Dart 270 2-door I just got is going to need some interior stuff done to it. I tried Legendary, but they only list seat covers for bucket seats. Here's what I will be needing: - Headliner - Front Seat Cover (Bench Seat) - Front Seat foam/padding - Carpet - Rear Seat Cover (can have just...

    Ball & Trunion to Conventional U-Joint Swap?

    I thought someone had already clued me in on a conversion to go from the Ball & Trunion to a conventional U-Joint, but I can't find the post now. This is on a 65 904 tranny in a Dart.

    How To Verify Numbers Matching Engine/Tranny

    Well, I wanted to verify that the engine/tranny matched on my 65 Dart 273, because I have a vibration issue going on, and in another thread, it was brought up that if you adapt a later-model 273 to an earlier tranny, that you will get a vibration if you don't use a bushing in the crank for the...

    Vibration in driveline or motor/tranny mount ?

    Hey People - I just picked up this 65 Dart 273/Auto, and it has a vibration in it. I thought it was a bad u-joint (ball & trunion), but I notice it vibrates somewhat when in park or neutral, although not nearly as much. It does it when accelerating from a stop, and it's worst as you go from...

    73-76 A-body 8 3/4 rear for 65 Dart?

    So if I want to get an 8 3/4" rear in my 65 Dart with the LBP, the 73-76 A-body unit is the way to go, right? Specs look like the spring perches are in almost exactly the same place, but the overall width is narrower. Anyone do this, and if so, any issues with the drums/rims/tires hitting the...
