1969 Dodge Dart GTS drag car

[SP3188]

This car was bought in the early 80's as a shell. It was a original 340 4 speed car. It had a 70's paint job on it, it was pearl white and pearl green. When it was finished, it had a .30 318 with a 727 reverse valve body with a 8 3/4 rear, it was repainted maroon with silver down the sides. The car sat for a couple of years and has rust in the usual places.The car currently has no motor or tranny but it will have the 318 back in it. I will try and scan vintage photos of it tonight and post them. I know :worthles: so here is a vid to hold you over it is small cause it was filmed with a ipod touch.

Looks decent from what I can see. I'd like to see pics of the floors and trunk when you get it cleaned out. What is the master plan? Race car, street strip, resto? Get some good photos up, looks like a nice project. Thanks for sharing.
