Well the body shop went 2 months over in the painting, but it looks good and now back for the engine/trans install. They only lost one part ... V end cap (front) of passenger side side spear molding/trim. Also because of the conversion to 3 on tree, I have a PB auto trans to sell and a guy...

What a dope... I needfed a pair of squarish side view mirrors for the '64 Dart. Original twin post round ones look cool but are too small in viewing area for me. So I bought these Roberk ones off ebay just thinking they're metal and they're really cheap plastic and barely swivel. So going to...

Well, the engine is out, the parts car is here w/ correct engine parts, and 3 on tree trans. So while they work on engine, car is off for Mopar ivory w/ black spears. Also this is last call for this free giveaway rough trim -- pickup only, so MD/VA/PA guys pretty much. Added one side view...

Sure is pretty. Never seen a GT other than my old one that I am replicating now-- that had a 3 on tree, no radio, and even no widshield washer(!) At least the button is not on the wiper knob. So we are taking the 3 tree trans from this and also enoujgh parts to make the early 70s slant I...

Thanks for all the info in Sept/Oct when I first got the car. Here you can see it w/ new top.. also has new hydraulics and cables, etc. Now the real fun begins. Some may recall this is a pb auto, but I want manual like mine was. Also mine has a later (early 70s?) slant w/ different...

VIN plate was painted over and 2nd digit in, no one can read it. The first two digits on VIN plates were a different typeface and lighter impression, clearly stamped earlier in the process. Even the shop manual shows this. Did VIN appear anywhere else on '64 Dart?

This is critical question to a wicked VIN problem I am having w/ my recent purchase. Have 10K in a car I can't drive!!! Also, is the VIN anywhere else on the car besides the plate in the driver's side door well? That plate under the hood-- inner fender -- looks like other stuff but...

Well, the '64 Dart is thru state inspection. Sending out the radio for service,then the engine is taken out for the full body repaint incl engine bay, new top after that. but w/ engine out, if there were ever a time to make the switch from auto to 3 on tree, this would be it. I have learned...

no, not that kind Didn't US automobile flashers become standard/required about 1967? How are people retrofitting flasher units to ones before this time? I guess there's add on kits, etc.

Well, even tho new '64 Dart is 50 yrs old, it's also my first automatic! Been driving the '94 Accord wagon so long (it's nearing 400K miles) that I forgot whatever I did in the 70s to cold start the original '64 dart. We (you) have pretty much determined it is a newer slant w/ a different...

I recall mine on the old car being somewhat squared off/mild rectangle. What's on the new one are small circular mirrors -- not much viewing area. Interested in clean L & R originals, or decent repros that look like originals.

Seems like this newly acquired 64 Dart GT winds way out before shifting.. almost 20 in 1st almost 30 in 2nd... shouldn't these be less? I know w manual I would never wind up to those speeds --

So here's pix of this big 273 V8 air cleaner housing on this 225. Hoses going everywhere, etc. Early emissions, I guess. Or one guy here said California cars had to have this set up. Can all this just come off for the normal air cleaner? Also someone put in a wacko acclerator... whether by...

Deal went down 3 weeks ago... some worrisome issues with the carrier, but it got here finally, a week late. It seems to drive ok, have to get it inspected, brakes seem ok. I didn't know it had power steering and it's effortless, almost too effortless. Had not sat behind the wheel of this model...

60s MoPar (at least '64!) had a 4 sided igntion key and round trunk key. Are these really the same blanks so an original initions switch could be copied on a trunk key blank -- or is there some the different about them? Also I forget since I haven't had a 64 Dart in 38 years (and it isn't even...

Well I just got this '64 Dart GT convert -- arrives in a few days. After inspection, I want to get a new top (black, it has white) and even tho it's a nice paint job I want it the color mine was. Guess the paint is done first, then the top. So far I am finding paint shops saying they do...

I guess this really isn't the appropriate forum except that it relates to a '64 Dart. But if the deal goes down and it is shipped back, any auto transport companies recommended? I know they aren't all the same, and some have lowball initial quotes and then all these hidden charges later, etc...

Going to see a '64 Dart convert for sale. Have a bunch of pix.. had questions on the two attached Trunk pix -- has primer. They came from factory with trunk painted whatever the exterior color was? I'd be having this car repainted. Engine pix -- has some kind of aftermarket fan in front...

Talking to local people bout the v8 to slant swap in a '64 dart. I have heard here it requires new motor mounts.. (makes sense) but a guy here says somethign about 'changing K frame'. Is that part of the deal? had another question re dash -- if you changed a PB auto to manual, you'd still...

I am still trolling for the '64 dart GT convertible, to reconnect with my young life-- have posted here before about this. My one way back when had the cool power top, and I was hoping to find one with this feature. Some have had it but don't have the right interior color or engine, etc. But...

There's lots of discussion about going from slant 6 to V8, but I would rather have the six and am told going either way it's a BIG job. How much would a good shop that knows old Mopar charge for this? BTW this would be for a '64 dart gt -- since that's what my old car had that's what I want...

Still trolling for the right '64 Dart GT convert, to make like what I had in the early 70s. A repaint to the color I had is no prob, but it has to have a really good black interior. So I see some w/ v8s, and most are pb automatics. But I want a slant 6 and manual trans. So it could be a question...
