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:
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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5Ul5_x4mxw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPHylfHeaYQ 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! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqy9WJZmdPk If for some reason you can not make the links work, check out my YouTube channel: 69DodgeDartforsale If that still does not work, message me and I will email you the videos/links etc.

Fiat Chrysler expands Takata airbag recall to 3.3M vehicles
Fri, Dec 19 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is expanding its recall of vehicles equipped with Takata airbags, moving beyond Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands to the greater US, as well as Mexico, Canada and beyond. The affected vehicles, some 3.3 million in total, were built between 2004 and 2007, with many models, including the Dodge Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500, Durango and the Chrysler 300, having been affected by Chrysler's previous recall. Despite the somewhat alarming nature that comes with a recall of this many vehicles, it seems that Chrysler is moving more out of an abundance of caution (and federal pressure) than anything else, saying: "Neither FCA US, nor Takata Corporation, the supplier, has identified a defect in this population of inflators. These components also are distinct from Takata inflators cited in fatalities involving other auto makers. More than 1,000 laboratory tests have been performed on these components. All deployed as intended, but FCA US continues to study the suspect inflators, which are not used in the Company's current production vehicles." Owners of affected vehicles will be notified and asked to report to dealers for a free replacement driver's side airbag. Scroll down for the official press release from FCA. Statement: Global Air-Bag Inflator Replacement December 19, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC will replace driver's-side air-bag inflators in an estimated 3.3 million older-model vehicles worldwide, in an expansion of an ongoing regional field action. Neither FCA US, nor Takata Corporation, the supplier, has identified a defect in this population of inflators. These components also are distinct from Takata inflators cited in fatalities involving other auto makers. More than 1,000 laboratory tests have been performed on these components. All deployed as intended, but FCA US continues to study the suspect inflators, which are not used in the Company's current production vehicles. Outside of Florida, one of the areas covered by the original action, no FCA US vehicle has been linked to an air-bag deployment of the type that has raised public concern. Nevertheless, the Company is replacing the Takata components tied to that concern. FCA US is aware of one related injury involving one of its vehicles, an older-model sedan. It occurred in a southern Florida region marked by persistent, high, absolute humidity – a condition believed to be a contributing factor in the air-bag deployments under investigation.
2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat [w/videos]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Darrell Waltrip once said, "If the lion didn't bite the tamer every once in a while, it wouldn't be exciting." The sentiment behind that aphorism is causing my adrenal gland to wake up as Dodge and SRT drivers and engineers - somber-faced to a man - give me the track talk that will precede my driving the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT on the circuit at Portland International Raceway. PIR might not be Daytona, and the 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat might seem tame to a legend like ol' Jaws, but there's a not-small part of me that's thinking about how hard Dodge's fire-breathing kitty might bite.
Just a few hours previous, I'd gotten behind the wheel of the Hellcat for the first time, letting its hyperbole-spitting, supercharged V8 Hemi pull me yieldingly through Portland's morning commuter traffic. Lulled into a cocky certainty by the Challenger's good manners at low speed, I drove the throttle just a hair too deep, too fast when I ran on to the highway ramp. For just an instant the rear tires were utterly drenched in torque, and the back end of the big Dodge loosened up like a drift car on a wet track. Throttle steer lives at the fleeting whim of your right foot in this car.
It was no big thing to lay off the gas and pull the Hellcat back in line as I entered the highway, but the incident did get me to thinking: What will this car do to me on a road course?
Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
