Brazil's rare barn find !

[Jim 68cuda]

Very cool emblem. Never seen one like it. If I had to guess I would think a C-pillar emblem from an Argentinian 64 or 65 Valiant (same as a U.S. 64 Dart). But thats just a guess.

I scored this on ebay, it is comming from Argentina. New old stock Valiant emblem, 9 inches long, 3 inches tall, any idea what year or model this is for? I had to have it!

Very beautiful sign, but I really don't know where or when it was used in the Argentinian cars too...
I keep Jim's guessing as true too: I believe this one should've come in the sixties cars, I'll try to do a research to find out and I'll be back here to bring the answer, right ??
Congrats on the new purchase !!!

And this last saturday was kinda productive here too !!!
A good friend of mine saw this very rare barn find gem last summer in a neighbour's country, Uruguay: an A-body 1974 Dodge Dart SE, the base model, commonly known here as "The poor man's Charger", this one carried the Muscle car idea to Brazil !!
This one was abandoned in a barn with a Nissan Diesel engine inside the bay, but luckily the original 318 LA V8 was very near and he brought it back to the car.
Here are some pics just made yesterday while we're bringing the SE back to his garage...He had to struggle with some bees inside the trunk, LOL !!
Now we know the "Superbee" meaning...

Look the cool Willys Wagon that was used to bring it back his home !!!

Now we're gonna have a good wash and start the "recovery project" on this one...
See ya, fellas !!!

Thanks A LOT, fellas !!!

I returned from a long trip to São Paulo where I found some great Mopar fans and took tons of new pics that I wanna share with you, guys !!!
Our first pit-stop will be at my great partner Cleber, he's got for eleven years a marvellous 1979 Dodge Dart in the exact configuration of our car, except for the B5 Blue color with matching interior...
Here are some shots on his babe:

Heey, and look on what he's got to be the Dart's match: a 1968 B-body Charger !!!!

Let's take more to come...Surely you won't be disapointed, LOL !!!

BTW, I wish a very special Christmas day to every FABO friend, and here are some images I took today just to get the fact:

See ya, guys !!!

Hi FABO fellas !!

I received some nice presents from our Mopar friends in São Paulo at the end of 2010.
Some nice reproductions on the original glass & factory stickers, I just glued them on the right places, here's the deal:

...And some nice decals to put inside the engine bay, here are the results:

Getting more original each day !!!

Here in Brazil the autumn is leaving us this week, showing the winter's cold weather...
Here are some interesting shots I made last week in my hometown, very near home (about just a mile away), in a place of old traditional german-like houses, all built by the end of the nineteenth-century, hope you enjoy them !!

Thanks, my friend !!
I really enjoy taking some tematic pictures with our beloved Dart, and everyday I feel the happiness & joy of this great automobile !!
And it's so good to share them with you guys, who can fully understand the meaning of having a Mopar !
