When I was a kid, my dad owned a 1969 dodge dart. My father was a mechanic by trade and racing ran through his blood as it does mine. I grew up around that car. I remember riding in it. I remember watching the old man turn wrenches on it, race it, and much much more. That car was the coolest and fastest car in the world to me as a little boy. When I was 11 years old I lost my dad in a farming accident. My life changed in the blink of an eye. A year later the farm was being sold, and we were moving. My mother put the car up for sale (in 1993) and was gone in the blink of an eye. It really bothered me, I always figured it would be mine once legal to drive.
Looking back thank god it wasn't. I probably would of wrecked it at that age. I am now 34 years old, about a year ago I put an add on Kijijji looking for the car, after talking with a few people, one thing lead to another and now my dads 1969 dodge dart swinger 340 rests in my garage.
