I am selling my 1969 DODGE DART GT. This car has a LOT of hard to find parts/pieces that MOPAR addicts will love. It has been sitting around waiting to be worked on for about 12 years, and I’ve finally decided to put it up for sale. It was my daily driver back in high school and I drove it for about two years straight before going to college. After returning from college I made a few attempts to work on it, but never made it too far. The last project I started was the body work and paint preparation, which is why it looks so dull in the pictures today. It was a labor of love and I hate to see her go…but I would rather give her a new home then let her sit around any longer.


This car is an original GT car with all the cool extras. The dash VIN and fender tag both match as you can see in the pictures. You can email me if you want a full decode, but here are the highlights of its original stats:


LP23:
Dodge Dart,Demon
Premium (a.k.a a GT model)
2 Door Hardtop
F: 318 230HP 1-2BBL 8 CYL
9: (1969)
R6: Red Exterior Color
W1: White Int. Door Frames
C55: Bucket Seats
G33: LH Remote Racing Mirror
R11: Radio Solid State AM (2 Watts)


The car spent most of its time in a garage and it still RUNS and DRIVES today. Everything on the car works mechanically as well as the electrical. It will likely need a new water pump as it had a small leak from sitting for so many years. While prepping the car for sale I also replaced the fuel filter/line, as well as the master cylinder. You will see from the pictures the car is solid and it has a few spots that will need more work then others. The only real bad rust in on the back driver’s side quarter panel. It has been like that for a long time and never worsened from what you see in the pictures.


Listed below are the specs the car currently sits with:


Engine: 360cu/5.9-liter small block V-8. It has professionally built ported and polished cylinder heads with big valves. Adjustable rocker arms. Crane Cam hydraulic flat tappet cam shaft. Ceramic coated headers. Edelebrock valve covers. All MSD ignition. Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and intake. The engine as a whole only has about 40k miles on it.


Transmission: built 904 transmission with a lower first gear.


Rear end: 8 & 3/4 positraction with 325 gear ratio. See video below for positraction clinic :-)


Brakes: Four wheel drum


Wheels: It has 15” rally wheels in the front and 16” rallies in the back. All four have the center caps (no outer rings though as I never liked the look, so I always passed up buying them at swap meets)


Hood: The car comes complete with an original steel GTS hood with BOTH chrome 340-Four Barrel hood inserts! You will also notice in the pictures it has the original front hood molding. As for the hood clip holes….those were made by the previous owner of the hood….


Interior: Right now the front bucket seats have some run of the mill seat covers to make moving the car around more comfortable. Underneath are the original and tattered seats. You will need new seat foam and upholstery for both bucket seats as well as the rear. The roof was painted, but will likely need another coat before the new headliner goes in.


I replaced the original stereo with a Sony Explod brand CD player as well as some nice Sony Explod rear speakers. The fronts (also Sony Explod brand) are not installed but included with the car.


Body: The entire car was being prepped for paint the last time it was out--hence all the primer spots. The passenger side is straight and you may notice there is no upper chrome piece on either side of the car. Although the GT models came with a chrome piece along the upper body line, I removed it and welded the holes shut. They were then grinded down and smoothed out to give it a more unique look.


So back when the car was a daily driver, my dad took it for a spin and apparently a “deer”….committed suicide by ramming the drivers side of the vehicle while he was driving down the highway…..whether it was a deer or a mountain, we had some work to do at that point. The front driver’s side quarter panel was replaced with another original from the junk yard and you can see the driver’s side portion of the grill is a little jacked up from the impact. We did a little bit of body work on the driver’s side door and it’s not too bad. It has a few waves in it but nothing horrific. I tried to capture everything in the pictures, but if you would like more please feel free to ask.


As you can see from the pictures, I have a ton of extra parts/pieces that all come with the car. This list of parts includes: Four new Spectra brake pads, two matching front Sony Explod speakers, new in the box power/electric antenna, the original horns, hood insert gaskets, original radio, both license plates, battery charger, fire extinguisher, seat belts and seat belt mounts, as well as tons of original nuts/bolts that came off the car while working on it. Also included are some of the original hard to find chrome pieces. There are three “GT” pieces, one “Dart GT”, one “V-8”, and one star emblem. Everything has been packaged nicely and placed in the trunk.


As I said before, the car runs and drives just fine. It needs some work, but there is a lot of potential here. It has a lot of original parts like the chrome bumpers, grill, trunk plate etc that you can see in the pictures. Please check out these videos on YouTube of the car running & driving today.

Here is another video of the car from back in 2002. The engine, exhaust, etc, is the same in this video as it is today. When it was last at the track it ran in the high 14’s in the quarter mile, which isn’t too bad considering it was also a daily driver. Sorry in advance for all the movement. Some of it is from the person taking the original video, but I recorded this on my phone while I played the VHS tape on my television. If this doesn’t make you wanna finish the car and throw down some more rubber I don’t know what will!

Bull leads Texas police on four hour chase

Thu, May 12 2016

A bull leading police on a chase through a Texas town may sound like something out of a country music song, but police in Arlington, Texas recently had just such a situation on their hands. According to WFAA, on the afternoon of May 9, a young bull got loose from his pen and decided to take a stroll through the streets of Arlington. "There was a cow walking down the neighborhood," said Arlington resident Jillyan Nance. "It trotted down my home and cut across our yard into the neighbor's yard." Arlington police were alerted to the escaped bull and, in a scene more Texas than Steve Earle drinking a Shiner at the Alamo, they attempted to chase it down with police cruisers. For the next four hours, police engaged the creature in a sedate, low-speed chase through Arlington, Dalworthington Gardens, and other neighboring towns. The bull, for his part, largely ignored his pursuers and the throngs of people coming out of their houses to watch the strange scene and post pictures to Facebook and Instagram. With numerous police cruisers in not-quite-hot pursuit, the bull ambled along the shady streets, stopping here and there to munch on some grass and take in the views. Eventually, a friendly local rancher showed up and lassoed the bull in Dalworthington Gardens just before 9:00 p.m. Police have not released the name of the bull's owner or any motive for its escape. Perhaps, like the unicorn that escaped into a California orchard back in February, it decided that it had had enough of working for a living and was looking for something else.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.

Florida Highway Patrolman seen watching YouTube in traffic

Fri, Apr 8 2016

The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating allegations of a trooper watching YouTube videos on his official in-car laptop while driving. Lee County Florida resident James Peebles caught the alleged offender during his morning commute in early April, NBC2 reported. After exiting I-75, Peebles said that the FHP cruiser rolled up next to him at a stop light where he could clearly see the trooper inside watching a car race on Youtube on an official FHP laptop. Peebles put his car in park and snapped a picture of the cruiser before continuing to work. Later that day, he posted the photo to Facebook where it quickly went viral. "It blew my mind," Peebles told NBC2. "Everybody's human though, so I do know that we all make mistakes." NBC2 contacted the FHP for a statement after speaking to Peebles. An FHP spokesperson told the station that troopers are allowed to use their laptops while driving squad cars when carrying out official duties such as "simple inquiries" and "reviewing the nature of incoming messages". Other Florida motorists, like Jim Kosmerick who was interviewed by NBC2 for this story, don't consider watching an old race on YouTube to be official FHP business. "It's not official business, there's no way you can convince me otherwise," said Kosmerick. The FHP says that they are now aware of this fast moving viral image, and that they are taking the issue very seriously. They state that an investigation into the matter is underway, and that troopers are expected to abide by department policy and lead by example.
