Well here we go again... I bought another 67 Dart Gt. Hopefully I can keep after this one and keep it rolling along.
Here is a little back story on the car.
I have been looking for a 67 Gt for several years now and about 4 years ago found one in the Chicago area. The guy wanted a ton of money for it but I figured I'd look at it.
My father and I headed down about 2 years ago and we were pretty unimpressed with the car as it needed a ton of work for the money. For some reason the guy wanted tons of cash for it. We said thanks but no and moved on.
Fast forward to this fall. I noticed the same car, same guy trying to sell it again on Facebook marketplace. Only this time a bit better if a price. I contacted him again and set a time to see the car again. Still the same mess, only a much better price and delivery included. We made a deal and the car is here.
The car is originally a slant 6 Gt white with black interior. Fender tag is missing unfortunately. It has been swapped to a 383 727 8 3/4 set up that was done horribly. I honestly can't wait to show you all the photos of this Chevy mechanics handy work.
Plans for the car include using what I have for awhile and getting the car running and driving safely. The car needs a ton of metal work but the bones are decent. Frame rails are good and floors solid other than the front foot wells.
I will upload pictures as I tackle each task and we will all get to laugh at the handy work of the previous owner.
