    Hello from the UK, with an Aussie Mopar!

    bad enough for me to spend that long looking for another one! The car was in an accident in the late 80's and although it stood up well to the impact, the right hand grill lost about 2.5" 's off of the top 'tooth' and made her look gappy! if you look at the photo album thing i started on here...

    Chrysler brings back the Dodge Dart
