Details below:
1974 Dodge Dart Sport. Space saver Dart with fold down rear seat. My daily driver that gets comments everywhere I go. If you are looking for an all original car...this is probably not your car. If you are looking for a very solid, fun and fast car to drive.....this may be for you. Classic Mopar.
The title on this car is restored/salvage. I purchased the car from a guy in California last year who got it at an auction. He did not know if it had been wrecked or was a theft recovery. It does have a wrinkle in the left lower quarter panel and a small split in the lower inside trunk seam on the same side so maybe it was rear-ended at some point. I do not know. I do know the car is solid.
Never had any problem with the title as restored/salvage. It is currently insured with Progressive and I have a collector car policy on it as well.
Only reason I am selling is I have had some life changing things take place.
Can also assist with delivery or shipping if need be.
Asking $5000 for it.
BODY
Car has no rust other than very minor surface rust in small spots.
Very solid. When I got the car it had no carpet or interior body panels and it is all solid.
Has a wrinkle in left side lower quarter panel.
Does not have fender tag so don't know how it was born.
Bumpers and trim are nice and chrome is very good.
PAINT
The yellow paint appears to be original and is still pretty nice. Has it's share of nicks and scratches. Waxes up nice.
The white paint portion of the car is Rustoleum that was applied using spong rollers. It is a 20 footer for sure but it still looks nice.
Engine bay was spray painted black when I got it so I covered the black with white spray paint and it came out pretty nice. Needs to be finished behind the distributor on firewall.
Trunk is sprayed flat black.
INTERIOR
The car was gutted when I got it so it has been a work in progress.
Front seat needs to be recovered.
Gauges all work. I have redone the 5 volt power regulator for the fuel and temp. gauge.
Has a Sunpro Oil Pressure gauge and a Tach.
Has a factory rubber floor cover out of a 4 speed car so has a few cut and glue spots but looks really good.
Car was an a/c car and now has just a heater that blows out one big square vent. New heater core.
Weather stripping is all good.
I greased the window tracks etc and the windows roll up and down smoothly with no squeeks or jumping.
ENGINE - IGNITION - WIRING
The engine and trans look pretty fresh. I pulled the distributor to take a peek inside and there was still break in lube on the cam.
The engine is a 360. Casting number is 53020008AB - 360.
Don't know if it's bored over or what pistons are in it.
Roller cam and roller lifters. Don't know the cam profile.
Magnum heads with stock Magnum rockers.
Mopar Performance intake P4510018, valve covers and air cleaner.
Headers and 2 1/2" dual exhaust all the way back with crossover.
Barry Grant Speed Demon carburetor.
Mopar Performance plug wires.
New ignition module, coil, alternator, regulator, Battery, fuel pump, reluctor, rotor and ballast resistor.
Painless wiring harness throughout entire car.
TRANS
904 Very clean. Looks like it was gone through but I do not know for sure.
Shifts very solid.
Lokar downshift cable.
Hurst V Lock shifter
Was converted from column to floor shift by previous owner.
REAR END
Ratio is 2.76 Not sure if Suregrip or not
SUSPENSION - STEERING
Front end was gone through by previous owner.
Tubular upper control arms.
New bushings, ball joints.
KYB shocks in front.
Power steering. Nice and tight.
BRAKES
Disc in front
Drum in back
Converted from power brakes to manual.
WHEELS - TIRES
Wheels are Cragar - see pics - don't know model or width.
Tires are BF Goodrich TA Radials.
Front - P225/60 R15
Rear - 245/60 R15
Good tread on them all.
NEEDS
Ignition switch is intermittent with power to coil in Start. So I wired a toggle switch and usually put Key in Run and use toggle to crank. Just did not get around to changing factory ignition switch out.
Needs a Dash Pad
I am sure I have missed some things. please ask all the questions you want. Open and honest is my deal.
Overall the car is fast, fun and has been very dependable since I had her. Put in some 3.55 gears and it will fly off the line. Still spins the tires very easily and really gets up and hauls around 2200 rpm.
