Hello A-Bodies only Forum

New to the group, but not to mopars! Current build project is a 1967 Dodge Dart. It has good bones, but needs TLC to bring it back to life. End goal is a daily driver street car for fun.
Prior builds consist of a 72 Charger, 72 Challenger, 68 Barracuda. All great cars with lots of fun memories.

Look forward to picking up some new tricks as part of this build.

Thank you all. Here's a few pics of the car as I am working thru the teardown process.

That Dart looks very solid and clean, congratulations.

Thank you both, the car has good bones to it, surface rust at best. Came with a 340, 727, 8 3/4 rear end. Hope to reuse all of that if possible.

Welcome. Great looking project. The engine bay looks like F8 Green. That's my favorite A Body color.
Those wheels (Centerlines?) are cool. If you ever decide to sell them, they will be easy to sell here.

It is F8 Green, but someone painted black over most of it. I will likely go a different direction in terms of color. The wheels are centerlines, but they are the small bolt pattern and I am switching to the large bolt pattern when I upgrade the brakes and axles. The tires are good as well, lots of tread. I will post them for sale when they are off the car, but that will be at least a few months. Lots of work to do......

It might just be me, but there are certain colors that I think look better on some cars than others. For instance, I LOVE F8 green on 69 Barracuda Fastbacks, but I just like it on cars like Darts and Barracuda Coupes. Likewise, I have seen the fastbacks painted in some high impact colors that didn't exactly float my boat, but those same colors look great on Darts. I think the Dart is a great blank canvas for a wide range of colors.

Chrysler came out with a Depp Water Blue Pearl that interests me, released around 2010. Saw it on a Challenger, really liked it.
