seems to me the idea of this website is to assist each other in obtaining and restoring our dream cars. On a car that is as rare and obscure as this, you guys who are interested need to work together better without getting your panties in a wad. If and when you sell that stuff on ebay, it will be gone. :stop: Consider hanging on a minute or two and who knows, two a-bodies members may have their days made!

I understand exactly what you're saying and I sent PM's to the three members who expressed interest, letting them know who each other of them were so they could workout between them who wanted what and heard from two that they were going to pass, and made no counter offers so I assumed they weren't that interested, I made the proposition of a trade and dart64gt, who has several possible trades hasn't really said he was all that interested.

dart64gt, if you want this stuff and want to work out a trade for it, we can discuss what for what and if one or the other needs to throw in something. I sent a PM with my phone if you want to discuss it you might be surprised at some of the stuff I have available. at one point when I was growing up my Dad had around 2 dozen Barracudas ranging from 1964 through 1973. I have had a half dozen 1963-64 Darts over the years. my Dad still has 5 or 6 273 4bbl engines and lots of parts, not to mention tons of other Mopar stuff. PM me some photos of the Valiant you mentioned and maybe a few photos of convertible projects and some wagons. I really would like to find a wagon or early Valiant/Lancer.
I live up here in Lancaster, Ca (north Los Angeles County) I have several friends in Riverside and San Diego, so I could make a day out of a trip to see you.
 
65DartCharger,

Both my cars fit the description you give except neither had power brakes.

The only thing on the fender tag that is unique is the 999 paint code, but I assume other colors were available other than light yellow. Anyone know if that's true? So how can one definitively determine if a car is a factory Dart Charger by the fender tag?
 
Some info on that light yellow - My late year 65 color chip chart lists code 881 for that light yellow. I'm guessing that particular color was a RPO by then as my GT is coded 881 for paint (production date April 2nd, 65). According to an mid-year dated insert in my Dealer C & U Book, that color was supposedly available only on GTs, Coronet 500s, Polaras, Custom 880s and Monacos (but we all know how you could special order just about anything from the factory back then).
 
I know for sure the bottom Dart Charger was made on Jan.15 1965 by the code and had the big 273 / automatic / and had black interior/ I don't know what some of the numbers are. I was looking for the guy in Sweden to brake this stuff down for me.
 
dart64gt! send me your email and I will break down all the info on the fendertag for you right away
