1966 Dodge Dart Gt Hardtop 2-door 2.8l on 2040-cars
Delta, Pennsylvania, United States

I have had this car for 32 years now and it breaks my heart to have to get rid of it. I received the car as a gift when I graduated from high school and I drove it hard for about 15 yrs. It's had a few fender benders which were fixed. My father and brother are both mechanics and body and fender men that have taken excellent care of the car. However, after acquiring several other cars, a bike, a house and family I had little time to devote to the car. As a result it landed a happy parking place in the garage; where it sat alone for a number of years. It's been about 20 yrs since I drove it on a daily bases. Occasionally I drove it for a short ride, however, I have not started the car in the past 3 yrs. I can tell you the last time I drove it it started right up after charging the battery and ran great. Could not tell you much else about the slant 6 engine except it is a very easy car to work on and that I rolled the odometer several times. The body of this car is still in good shape considering it is almost 50 yrs old. It is steel and has all it's original chrome although some have been banged up. The rear quarter panels were repaired once however, they need some additional bodywork. This car has power steering and manual brakes. When it was younger it had no problems winning both street races and track races. Being that this car is very basic compared to todays standards it would not take much to restore this car to the dream car it once was. This would be the perfect project for a beginner historian. This car was one of only 5,000 Darts made with the GT chrome package in 1966. This car is a true gem. You would never have to worry about anyone else having a car like yours with this one.

Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs
Thu, 06 Mar 2014Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
