I worked on a ’66 Dart that was one of the factory prepared Early A-sedan and Trans-Am cars.
These cars were not D Darts, they were made from the 270 GT model, and the cars were acid dipped by Mopar, and the panels were brazed together rather than spot or seam welded. I don’t know how many were made, but it was probably less than 5.
When the car came, it was a white shell, withe the removable parts a dark brown green prime. The cars also ran with light weight bumpers. The cars had FIA Homologation papers and in their original form had a very light weight listed. That was the reason for all the lightening work done on the cars. In fighting trim the car was something like 2700 lbs. The hood would sag when you lifted it. Later when the rules for the Trans Am came in; the cars could weigh no less than 3200, but they were allowed to run a 5 liter engine, so the de-stroked 340 was the choice.
The 273 was built originally by the factory, and had a Racer Brown cam, and a special aluminum intake manifold. The exhaust was a strange setup as it was assembled from a bunch of pieces so it could be tucked into the engine compartment. SCCA did not allow cutting any holes to route the exhaust, so it was all wrapped around inside.
The car had massive torsion bars and rear springs as well as oversize sway bars. An interesting note is the brakes were made from Mustang and Lincoln parts. There are other details but too much to go into here.

I believe there is the Tullius car in the Sebring Museum in FL. 1966 270 Dart? Would love to see a brazed chassis/ body (unibody). I wonder if he has one of these in the museum?
