LATE model Dart love. 73-6

I looked at a 74 dart sport before i bought my cuda. Typical I'm gonna fix it up someday owner. Car sunk up to its axles in Texas sand and clay. Would have had to use chains and a wrecker to pull it out of where it was at. Slanty six automatic. Granny green exterior, dark green bench seat interior, grand canyon dashpad. This clown wanted $3,500 for it, and it had not run in over 15 years. The beak isnt that bad, just takes some getting used to. I think the beak on the darts looks cleaner than the plymouth IMHO.

I wasnt hard set on a color however i always thought dusters and demons looked good in bright red. I envisioned a blackout grille treatment, or dark argent gray, leaving the trim around the edge polished, a twin scoop hood scoop, and a go wing or DC spoiler was my plan along with a chin spoiler. Repop rallyes or the black cragar 5 spoke steelies with soft edge cutouts and beauty rings.

I had a lot of ideas, but for the color combo it was, and having to do an interior color change, and the fact that i had to do the V8 swap with 4 speed including finding all the parts to do it, i would have done $800-$1,000 for it since it was relatively rust free, and all i was really keeping was a rust free body shell with disc brakes. It was not to be since i found a 67 cuda notch for a G note.

I think it could have been a nice car.

Btw i still have some 74 dart front clip parts off a parts car i had if anybody is interested. Got a set of headlight doors. One is nice, the other is dented ( i cant remember which). a drivers side fender (no rust ) a good grille, upper header panel (beak) 1 pair of rear quarter panel diecast caps.
