    AlV 69 Dodge GTS project

    Geo4K, this is for you. Now I got to figure out how to add the pictures. That was easy, thanks. A Footnote should be added here. When the '69 was introduced Dodge had what they called the "Dodge Girls" that posed with the cars. When I took these pictures I dressed my daughter in all white...

    AlV 69 Dodge GTS project

Lets do it this way, in order of cars owned and why. 1. '49 chevy coupe that chucked a rod thru the block. (would never buy another one) 2...

    AlV 69 Dodge GTS project

    I stumbled onto your thread here and just had to show my age. 46 years ago in 1968 I ordered a brand new 1969 Dart GT, nope not the GTS, my little girl was 3 and I had just built a new house so the 318 4 speed had to do. The neat thing is that it was the same color as yours with black vinyl roof...
