[FOR SALE] 69 Floral Top Dart Custom, 1of25, $11500

[Wheelsntires]

1 of 25 built. 1 of 2, possibly 3 known to still exist, V1H Floral Top Dart Custom cars. (per the ModTop registry). After sitting 15yrs, new fuel tank, carb cleaning, tuneup parts, and wheel cylinders made it basically mobile. Not road worthy, but mobile...
Car is complete, but needs a full resto. Matching numbers 225 and 904. Carb isnt the original. Solid rockers, subframes and torsion xmbr. Needs trunk floor, rear window channels. Floors very nice except typical 2inch hole under accelerator. Needs a trunk floor and the channels around rear window/filler panel. Has a poorly reskinned right quarter, and bad repaint thats not even close to the F6, from an accident seemingly decades ago. Left quarter is solid, but theres some pretty heavy rust pitting on C-pillar from moisture under vinyl top that will need attention. Have the seats, which need redone, they were out in pics to inspect the floors. Trunk full of extra A body misc parts. Extra set of decent, non-peeling bumpers.
This rare car, restored, is likely $$, especially at auction. Incredible profit potential, especially for a DIYer. Not a fan of "flippers", but this is a weird/rare car that is an awesome candidate for a profit build. I just wanted to build a street/strip carbureted 5.7Hemi car... til i looked at the data plate. (Previous owners hadnt either, lol) Loss of shop/income forces sale. $11,500-ish and motivated.
Im in Vancouver, WA- car is now stored at a friends across the river.

It's a black bench seat interior, and yes, I have front and rear, the pics were taken when I pulled them and the carpet out to clean and look at the floors.
SMS, nearby in the Portland OR area, makes a run of the top material every couple years. I've heard some negative comments about them, but haven't dealt with them myself, so can't say anything one way or the other..

Did you keep any of the original top material?
Just to compare if you can find it.

SMS has good quality products but are slow…..order long in advance . Or better yet just drive over and pick it up .

Sadly it was long-gone. It had a black top when I got it , or the remains of it, anyway. That, and not bothering to read data plate, is why the last couple owners passed it around as "just another slant6 Dart", and had no interest in it except as a good candidate for a v8 swap. No idea when during the cars life it was changed. I've wanted to try and run down previous owners and try to get cars history, but haven't had the opportunity...
