    Why do some Mopars rust all to hell, and others go for decades with no major issues?

    Years ago, I sold a '69 Dart to a guy from Wyoming, Michigan. (thought I was selling to a local - he didn't tell me until the deal was done it was being shipped to Michigan) He and his wife would "Vacation" to various parts of California to buy cars then send them home to be sold at his...

    Big Dent removal Question

    “All that is missing is the Black Vinyl Top after the door dent repair....” Thank you for effectively calling me a liar… Bad angle/lighting in the picture. Dent had been there for 15 years according to the previous owner and popped out nicely with the help of PDR.

    WTF Front Brakes?!?

    I would replace those control arms... I had a '76 Fiat 124 Spider years ago. I knew it had been in a prior accident, but I did not know the drivers side control arm had snapped and someone butt welded it back together (poorly) during the repair. I used to go out and hit the twisty roads and...

    AJ's Opinions; for the Teener Street guys. You know; zero to 60 and a decent cruise rpm.

    AJ, you are obviously a very smart and intelligent person that understands how to put together an efficient ride. But your endless novels (posts) about the only way/your way, can be discouraging to young people or folks that don’t want to spend a lot of money. You don’t have to have it perfect...

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    Yes, in the last 55 years the car has had one repaint. Gold was the original color.

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    Thank you! I just confirmed the spot welds at the inner fender are in line with the shock towers. It’s WAY off center. Looks to me like this was indeed done on the assembly line to clearance the drivers side upper shock mount. Interesting…

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    Yes, it’s looks like it was hit with a cutting torch. Agree I can’t imagine the factory would do this, but who knows… I’ve seen it on other Darts.

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    2nd picture obviously has no damage. I was showing how off center both shock mounts are on my Dart. Alignment is fine. Question is would the factory do this on the assembly line to move the car along? Other Darts I was referring to also had the same damage on the drivers side.

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    Great link kiwigtx. I have seen two other 1969 Darts from the Los Angeles plant with similar damage at the upper shock mount - within a couple thousand on the VIN. Can anyone confirm if the factory would do this on the assembly line?

    68 Dart GTS history?

    I bought a Y-2 yellow ‘68 Dart GT in Phoenix when I went to school there in 1987. Previous owner told me the driveline was transplanted out of a 340 car. 340, 727, 8 3/4 w/ 3.91 SG. Might have came out of your car… Sold it before I left. :(
