    68 Dart 270- Pro Street 500 cubes.

    It looks like a cool old car,especially with the wheel well openings you dont like.It has that hemi dart look to me.I bet that car would be a blast to drive,in its current conditon,with the engine repaired,and the rust fixed for safety.Keep us updated on its progress
