Welcome,

Welcome to FABO!

Is the horn ring original to the car?

Just wondering.....Dodge with a Plymouth Valiant part.

Thanks for the warm welcome :)

Well, I guess in the good old 1960's, dodge did not have enough Right Hand Drive dash/steering wheel for the RHD market and decided to "steal" the Valiant VC dash and steering for the Dodge Dart...

And Yes she is all original, just as she came of the ship in 1966... (This is a ONE owner car, never been restored, she was mom's 1st car in fact and now shes MINE!) :p

As far as I know, there are two '66 dodge dart convertible here. Both are on the road (well mine is "semi" on the road). But the other one is a GT with bucket seats and floor shifter. Mine is bench seat with 3-on-the-tree.

Question: three-on-the-three refers to 3-speed manual column shift, or 3-speed auto column shift as well?

Cheers

I was at HPU from '96 till '99 before I transfered to USC, CA. I lived in Makiki but most of my classes were on the windward-side campus... so I regularly commute up and down PALI Hway everyday... Man that PALI lookout was SCARY at night... especially there weren't any lights back then LOL

Man i miss my 3 years in HAWAII! :p

Welcome to FABO Syed. I have a 66 Vert too, but it drives from the other side.....;)

I'm liking the 2-tone paint 8).
 
Very nice ride you got there. What part of Malaysia? I was just at Port Dickson / KL few weeks ago. There is definitely a lack of American cars in Malaysia nevermind a 60s mopar.
 
Welcometo FABO.That is a sweet and unusual Dart you got. First right hand drive Dart I've seen in 30 years! Good luck from Sweden.
