1963 Dodge Dart Wagon

[Peter Ardell]

Hi,

Pete from Sweden here. Drove my newly bought Dart wagon from 1963 to my home yesterday. So satisfied with the car!

Bought a Plymouth Volare around a year ago, but that car was way too rotten to save. Or it was not, but I wanted a older car in better shape. So it had to go.

The Dodge will be the family car, and I am planning to upgrade from 170 to 225 cui (will rebuild one myself). I also want to swap the manual three gear transmission for a 904.

I love comfort, and the only other stuff I want to do for now is maybe drop the car just an inch or so. Or maybe not. And exchange broken stuff. Usual things, you know.

The car is in quite good shape, and came to Sweden from US around 3-4 years ago.

I tend to keep cars I like and love, and this is for sure a keeper!

Looking forward to hang around here, with you fellow A body fans!

Kind regards /Peter

Very nice to see more people who appreciate wagons out there.

They are rare even in US, right? Love the wagon. A lot of smiles given everyday. People tend to show more interest for that a "regular" '68 Charger (Plenty of them i Sweden) and such... Haha.
