ok guys, posting for a buddy. we went and picked him up this dart a few years ago, got the engine running, did a little work in the engine bay, and it's pretty much sat since then. he doesn't have the room to complete the project and just wants out of it at this point. as you can see from the pictures, the car is pretty solid. it does have it's dings and dents, but not much rust to contend with. realistically this is the best candidate for a garage paint job race car i've seen for a while. it could use a quarter depending on your metal skills but there's enough spare parts in this thing to rebuild about 5 darts. as seen in the pictures.
the good.
already installed is a complete 440 and 727 transmission
A body 8 3/4 with 3.73 and a sure grip.
the engine runs.
not much rust
enough spare parts to fill the car.
under body large tube, full length headers.
the bad,
i'm going to have to list this as NO TITLE. when we brought it home, the title was already filled out from Michigan. it was a salvage title where we were told once it was back on the road, a simple hwy inspection would warrant a new title, however upon getting it home the last seller had incorrectly filled out his address in the wrong place....so technically we have a useless piece of paper that the fine us court system would rather us crush this classic than be allowed to restore it. I may be able to get my buddy to try to contact the last titled owner again, but not sure, again the worst thing about the car...
notable spare parts,
2 driveshafts
3 total steering columns
a spare deck lid
multiple sets of rims and trim rings
old school direct connection valve covers (ones cracked if i remember right)
old school porcelain plug wires
bucket seats
washer bottle
906 extra heads
new front bushings
new motor mounts
complete disc setup
extre dash
the way i see it, despite the title condition, the engine is worth at least $750 as it runs, the trans probably 500, the A body 8 3/4 with sure grip is a $850 piece.
load up everything in the garage for 2900, or make offers on anything pictured for pickup/part out. will seperate engine/trans but would rather leave the rear end in the car so it can roll. for 1850 on tires.
Thanks guys.
