That sounds like fun! A while back, I found a black first gen Dakota, 360 5 speed, short bed, on a dealers lot for $2500. I am still kicking myself for not figuring out a way to own it.
 
Hello from MN. Looks exactly like my dart when I first got it. Except you one upped me on having both fenders.

It's great to have you here! Make yourself at home and don't be shy with the questions. We're here to help. :-D
 
i took the proportioning valve off the frame and cleaned er up,blew out all my brake lines,and rebuilt the wheel cylinders,now i have brakes,and also i got rid of the worn out brake booster for an adapter for a late model master cylinder for manual brakes,now to find the manual steering gear box and the right steering column i have a friend here close also that helps me out too,he's got a 74 dart sport with a 440,this is a road he's already traveled a couple times he is also helping me figure this out
