I haven't posted in quite a while. I was in an accident a couple years back but This is my 69 Dart GT vert, 372-6pac. I still need to install the interior. All is ready just need to put it in.
As of today, all is finished and the Dart is now Complete !!! Funny how life can throw a curve at you. Owned it for 18 years and took 17 years to complete.
 
Needs a good cleaning from setting up so long but finally all is finished.

That's pretty much where I'm at with my Barracuda convertible. Bought in Sept 2006, tore down in Dec 2007. Still not done, but getting there.

Takes a lot of time and money doesn’t it? Life’s curve balls are hard to hit for sure. Keep your eye on the light at the end of the tunnel and pray it’s not a train….if I can help just drop me a line. I have a fair amount of 67-69 Dart vert stuff and some is the same as barracuda.

We're good. A lot of life has happened since we bought the '67, but this is the year I will finally have time for it, after I get my son's 440 running in his Dart convertible. Right now just waiting for a bit more of a cool down...Plus we have all the parts for all the cars...
 
Step 1 get the parts in place. Step 2 find time to install said parts. Step 3 trouble shoot and adjust. Step 4 re evaluate and repeat.
 
My 66 Winter project, Still accumulating parts before the restoration starts. A lot of fun, meeting a lot of great people, but parts are crazy expensive for these old MOPAR's

65 Dart GT, bucket seats with auto on the floor. Mild 318 edelbrock intake & 600 carb, 904 auto with 8.25 3:23 posi out back. Willwood disc in front, all new suspension, new gas tank, rebuilt steering box, radio converted to blue tooth stereo. 318 & 904 gone thru first winter with the car (put newer 904 in to get rid of dual cable shifter) I'm sure I'm missing some stuff (afraid to look at receipts!) In the fall of 2021 & 2022 went from Chicago to Santa Monica, CA following route 66. Definitely a bucket list trip taking the Dart. Lot of fun with lots of miles, I think we put over 5000 miles over two trips. When you get that great 66 Dart done don't be afraid to drive it. Best of luck!
p.s. I've had Dart going on 12 years now.
 
Here's the 3rd Dart I've ever owned a '64. Just bought it on January 9th! It's a cream puff! My first convertible, with the top down I feel like I'm driving a speed boat. Super fun!
