Need help! 73 Dart 4 door, how much?

[1968FormulaS340]

This is a true survivor. 89,000 miles. The pics speak for themselves. Look at the seats....... They have those clear covers on them, they were put on in 73, under those covers is perfect, and I mean perfect.

I could not find any rust. I couldn't even find any bubbles under the vinyl top.

The tires are new (week old new not last year new).

Factory disk brakes.

The inside of the trunk is perfect and complete.

The car even drives extremely well and runs silky smooth.

The only thing I could think that it needs is shocks. They are a bit soft.

My wife really wants it.

Asking price is $2,500 but I think $2,000-$2,200 would get it.

What do you guys think? Should we buy it?

 

[Alaskan_TA]

Dang.

I love 4-doors.

I love green.

That is a beautiful car!

 

[TXDart]

I buy it for $2500,offer $1800 and meet them half way if they take it.
The only thing other than shocks and tires,would to re-locate the fuel line away from the exhaust manifold to prevent vapor lock...
Then it would be solid daily driver.
Great looking car,
TXDart

that is a steal at 2500.00 even though, still try to get it for a few hundred cheaper, but if he does not budge, you would be dumb not to buy it for 2,500.00 i just hate green. i hate 73+ darts and i hate four doors, but other than that, you will be good to go!

 

[Sussmad]

get it! you'll have it and drive it for years. Got to love those 70's colors.

 

[1968FormulaS340]

He gave me a bottom line of $2,400.

 

[340plot]

steal it at 2400!

 

[Alaskan_TA]

Is your wife driving it home yet?

 

[TXDart]

.



My wife really wants it.

Then give it to her.

I did. The wife is now the proud new owner of the 73 Dart above. We just got home. After dinner we are filling it with gas and going cruising (her idea).

That's a great car. I predict all these ignored 4 doors are going to make a comeback once all the 2 door A's are depleted.

 

[TXDart]

House is paid for,you own a cuda and a dart,your wife digs mopars...
LIFE IS GOOD !!!!!

[1968FormulaS340]

This is "the wife": MY NEW OLD CAR IS DA BOMB! I LOVE IT!

 

[Alaskan_TA]

She sounds like a keeper, you did well.

 

[daliant]

That looks just like my daily driver. I'd say for 2400 you got a fair deal.

 

[slantsixdan]

Yep, that's a great price on a super clean car. Take a look at the Fuel line mod, HEI upgrade and of course valve adjustment procedure. Tune-up parts and technique suggestions in this thread.

 

[70DartMike]

Very clean car! Look at that crack free steering wheel, damn!! I'd say you got it for a great price.

 

[Dart_Doctor]

nice

 

[kates64dart]
