Mysterious 1964 dart rag top????

Sounds like a 273 that the paint faded on.

If you go back look at the Vin and Fender tags.

If is an "L" at the start of the vin it was factory V8 on Dart.

273 was the only V8 in an Abody in 1964-66.

Pictures?

Ok, I was out for my estate sale running to day wen I parked by a very vary sad looking 64 rag top sitting in the drive on 4 flats dents moss etc. I was looking at it when I spied a stick inside looked like a 4 speed. I got that omg look, I then seen a lady coming out and asked about it, well she said her brother had dibs on it but she already had a price in mind 1000$ since she seen it in a old blue book. The car ran too. Of course I tried to tell her the body was in bad shape with rusty/dented quarters and the interior was shot. I then went to look under the hood, what did I spy but a huge v8 painted orange, 340?? I was shocked a rag top with a stick plus v8.....RARE!!! Well now I am wanting to know if this is factory? she said her mother bought it that way. If I get the call is a 1000$ a good price despite all its cosmetic damages?? I wish I had my camera when I was there. Dying for info!!!
