Happy 55th to my 67 Dart GT Convertible

[Dana67Dart]

55 years and 321,000 miles

Either 2-6, 2-8 or 2-18 is my Darts b-day.

Sales receipt says estimate 2-6-67
Build sheet says 2-8-67
Ciricard says 2-18-67

I know there were all kinds of delays / estimates to the dates.

I am fairly sure the 2-18-67 is the day my dad picked the car up, it was a Saturday, he would be off work, and my sister remembers we were all there. I was a month shy of 5 years old and don't remember the day.

10 days to transport from Hamtramick to Santa Monica is also reasonable.

My wife's birthday is 5/2/1963. My Dart's birthday is 5/2/1968.

Well, Happy Birthday. You know, you can print a photo of your car in frosting at Wal Mart. Think about that next time or when she hit's 60. That's a milestone that needs to be celebrated with a cake.

I agree with Toolman. But i need to ask, can you get the frosting off the car without hurting the paint?
Just asking ;)

 

[abdywgn]

did you give the Dart an extra coat of wax for it's birthday?

Contact FCA (Stelanis) Historical, provide them a copy of the title, and they can send you a photo of the IBM card, which has the production date on it. Pm me if you need the info if you can't find it online.

I'll bring the cake.

Toolman, you weren't kidding. That's cool

Nope, not kidding. They have a printer that uses sheet frosting and it prints with food coloring.

Over a year ago I sent the required info per the website and nothing but crickets
If you would pm me the contact info you have.

I am lucky, my dad requested info years ago when they still were helpful and he got a total production number for 67 converts but they replied that no other info existed.


This is the form I submitted ( I know it is unreadable)

I'll dig it up for you. Hopefully the gal I communicated with is still with the company.
