66 Dart Owners thread
Rodney, Sorry I didn't respond to your post earlier. It must have slipped through the cracks here. FABO is so busy that your post can be 3 or 4 pages back in a matter of a few hours. I like your Dart. Silver with a red interior is a sharp combination! Sounds like you want to make a hot rod and that sounds like fun. Sounds like a stroker and mini tub is in your plans and that's perfect for these cars. There are many here that have built that combination with great results. Keep your build thread going with lots of photos. Mike
What a great tread! Hello, I am Rodney and from Red Lion Pa. I just joined this forum only 2 or 3 days ago. I've spent the last few nights reading posts and looking at pics of everyone's 66 Darts. Today I brought one home. This is not my first Dart as I owned a 70 Swinger 340 CI in 79, then a 66 GT 273 CI back in 1981. Both have been sold long, long ago! I didnt have any sporty cars other then family vans and big Pontiacs until 7 years ago when I bought my first vette a 1974. 4 years later I bought a 2nd vette a did a full mod/restore on it. But owning them just didnt feel right and I kept looking back at Dodge's. 2 Weeks ago I attended a Muscle car madness weekend event for the old York US 30 Drag Reunion and I couldn't help but wish I still had a Dodge again. Well today I do! I have so many questions on where to start and find parts. I dont plan on an original restore. I want HP! I want lots of rear tire up under the fender wells! I want the right hood scoop! I'm in no hurry but cant wait to get started. Thanks for helping with the inspiration to go back to being a "Dodge Boy" once again! Here are a few pics of my purchase. Hope they post.
