All well and understood, but not sure what you mean by lowball as I haven't received a lowball offer yet. I'm absolutely open to entertaining offers as long as it isn't a trade for a motorcycle (which I've received several offers).

I honestly don't have the time, money, space, or knowledge to go and do any of this. Priorities are family and my garage is unusable right now, and the only real answer is to move it along to someone who knows what they have and do it right.

It's my car, and my slant six. I could probably also finagle a 383 block from my father. Completely open to making a deal on both cars and everything I've got.

I talked to Mark on the phone a few months ago, as he's just right down the road. Anything he does is a little rich for my blood. $20k down required (to secure your car on the show), plus another $30k later and then another $5k if they have to track an engine down for the car. He does...

Saw this on eBay and picked it up...thought it was a neat old custom tuner ad for a Dart GTS. Not sure how common this ad is--I had never seen it before. Just wanted to share it with you all.

Looks like I'll have to find some front inner fender wells as well. That explains the headers sitting inside the car.

Luckily I have a 67 2 door post car that I'm going to use for all the missing dash pieces and what have you. It has a back seat also that I'm going to recover with the GT seat cover. I had actually bought a bunch of parts for that one to restore that I still have on hand (carpet, headliner...

Well, I picked up the GTS yesterday finally and got it into my garage :D I think I'm in a lot better shape than I initially thought I was...car still has an original bucket seat, the GT door panel emblems, all the windows roll... Now I just need to start stripping this thing and getting...

Thanks :( I've been told there is nothing to do there except to go to a Super Wal-Mart and possibly the one gentleman's club that is literally in a double wide. Looks like I'll be playing a lot of video games there when I'm not studying.

Thanks guys. I met with the owner this morning and saw the title to the car along and made a down payment before I pick it up. The VIN does in fact start with LP23H72XXXXXX. The car was originally red with black interior and the black vinyl top. DaveBonds--I appreciate your advice, that...

Yep..but I have $3k in parts from Summit out in my garage right now that need to be broken open for that 360 :)

What do you say about the tail stripes? Man, I keep getting excited thinking about how slick that car will look with that trunk panel deal and clean black paint.

To be honest I don't *want* to do anything other than a 383 with this car....the only hesitation I have is that I spent so much money with this whole 360 deal I started on last year including parts/labor, that I'd almost want to throw it in the car just because--UNTIL I get some cash flow to...

Thanks for all the replies guy, I was definitely shooting in the dark with this one. After going out and doing some stuff tonight and thinking about it, I feel confident with the whole thing now. Especially coming back on here and reading the replies. As far as what dano was asking with the...

You'd be absolutely correct. I was wondering the same thing and that's what my dad said. I hope it isn't too much trouble plugging them.

Local craigslist deal that I committed to buying. I'm nervous dropping the cash, as I haven't even seen this thing in person. My dad went down and checked it out today for me and said it's solid. $2850, for one of the couple hundred 67 Dart GTS models ever made. Originally a 383 motor car...

I guess because I've already got $3k in this engine that I feel like I need to justify putting into a car, and I don't have $10k for an already put together car. I dunno.

I guess I'm just slightly lost on what you mean by plain parts. The way I'm looking at it now is that this would need some trim pieces, 8 3/4 rear end, disc brake conversion, new interior and paint because I've already got the engine/trans. I'm sure i'm simplifying this and making it sound...

What would it really need other than the seats/gauge cluster and obvious new interior stuff (door panels, carpet, etc)

Oh wow, alright...had no idea it was valued that low. It was offered at $2500, the buyer said he'd lower it to $2k. Didn't think I'd be hurting that bad with it. I guess that's why I come to this site for advice.

Is $2000 a deal or just average?

I do not have a parts car to use as a donor, and the under carriage appeared rust free. I wasn't able to crawl around underneath it though. I also have a 360/727 I was going to drop in a Dart originally.

I'll ask how much you guys think it's worth first, then tell you what I am able to pick it up for. No motor or trans, originally had a 273 so it had the V8 K-member, no front seat, solid floor, 7 1/4 rear end, glass all good except for cracked windshield, grill is perfect, body is pretty...

Thanks for all the replies, guys. I really appreciate it. I have a lot of decisions to make on this car still: what color to paint it, tail stripes or not, etc. Now I'm thinking of putting a 68 grille/bezels, taillights and trunk trim on it because I think it looks a lot meaner than the 67...

Am I correct in assuming that the 67 was never made or offered with tail striping? What's the consensus on putting tail stripes ON a 1967 Dart?

So here's what I have in my head. Shoot me in the face if this seems ridiculous at all. My first thought was painting the block this color, it's like a teal or something: http://www.engine-swaps.com/Pages/1969Dart.html If that's too much blue/green, maybe just stick with Hemi...
