1968 Dodge Dart
440 six pack/727 auto/Dana 60 4:11 posi project car
Here we have a 1968 Dodge Dart that I recently took in as
partial payment against another Mopar that I had . Originally it was a Dart 270
but it now it has a 440 motor with the famed six pack set-up and a 727 auto
trans with a Dana 60 in the rear with a posi and 4:11 gears. And the car is
supposed to be set up by a NASCAR DRIVER/MECHANIC but I cannot prove or
disprove that statement. But as you can see there is some high dollar parts
that go with this car as it was set-up to simply be a cool go-fast car and that
is it. It is NOT A SHOW CAR but it is a cool looking car with the right motor
and a really nice interior but the body work is amateurish with a few waves and
misaligned body lines. So if you are looking for perfection you should keep
looking but if you are just looking for a cool go fast car this just might be
the one.
Now let me tell you a little more about the car in detail.
First off the color is sublime green with a black tail stripe and a black
six-pack hood. All new suspension painted and powder coated, Nascar style
3-piece sway bar up front (will need a front end alignment), All new front disk
brakes with chrome hard lines and steel braided flex lines at each wheel, 11”
performance drums in the back with New shocks both front and rear with the rear
being air shocks, A narrowed Dana 60 with a 4:11 posi rear gear and 35 Spline
Moser billet axles with top links on axle tubes to help prevent axle wrap,
A rebuilt manual reverse pattern valve
body 727 with a deep aluminum racing tranny pan and a new 3500 Boss hog stall
converter with a new B&M pistol grip
ratchet shifter, The battery was moved to the rear of the car but the battery
box was made to look like a piece of luggage and not just a ugly battery box.
Most of the bolts have been replaced with stainless steel or ceramic chromed,
Has frame connecters that are welded in and the whole underbody is undercoated,
The fuel tank is clean and ready for fuel and I has a sump with a Edelbrock
quiet electric fuel pump(relayed switch is under the dash for on or off with
key ignition.
It is also wearing brand new Coker red line tires stretched
over brand new(painted to match) wheels with deep dish on the rear(215 up front
and 255 for the rear and 15x8 front and 15x10 rear ). As for the interior it
has new carpet, new windshield, new wood
grain steering wheel and a hidden master
power switch under the dash with removable key but sorry no radio.
Under the hood has also been prepped for the motor and as
you can see it has a all aluminum
radiator with a stainless steel shroud and electric fan set-up(thermal
activated switch with override under dash)
and a stainless overflow tank. New wiring harness, Now for the motor it
is a early 70s 440 with rebuilt like new 906 six pack heads that have been
ported and have larger manley valves, springs and retainers, The rods are Childs
& Albert billet rods. As for the pistons
they are new 30 over forged trw domed pistons (11:1) with a new hydraulic
purple .531 cam and new comp lifters plus a New double roller timing chain. It
also has a new aluminum water pump, New oil pan with a new high volume oil
pump, New chrome balancer , Chrome one wire alternator with the brackets,
Aluminum pulleys and Mopar aluminum valve covers, msd distributor and all arp
studs (heads and mains), and all the
gaskets needed for assembly of the motor. And to sit on top of this monster is
an aluminum six-pack intake with holley carbs (2-350 cfm and 1- 500 cfm
modified to fit the six pack intake so now all 3 carbs have metering blocks and
power valves for better tuning) . The
block will need machining and the crank will need to be turned(neither have
been turned or bored) So that is what
this car has to offer. Like I said earlier it is not a show car but just a cool
go fast car that is about 90% complete but needs to be put back together by
somebody looking for that cool, cool car.
Please ask any and all questions before bidding on this car as there is
no warranty or guarantees on this car.( after all it is a 45 year old car) Either you can call me at 231-206-5258 my name is Kirk
or email me thru ebay’s ask seller a
question. Well good luck if you bid on my car………………..see-ya

Hidden 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.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is hauling a multitude of modified models to the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas this November, and the company is releasing the first teasing sketches of many of them.
Unfortunately, FCA isn't giving many solid details on any of the concepts other than saying the vehicles from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat all benefit from tuning from its Mopar performance brand. The teaser photos include a sinister-looking Chrysler 200S, Fiat 500 Abarth with two-tone paint and a scorpion on the hood, a red and black 500L, seemingly two different takes on the Jeep Renegade, a green Dodge Challenger wearing the T/A badge, an orange and black Dart, a very neon Charger, just the outline of a red and black Viper, a Ram ProMaster in Mopar livery and a Ram pickup called the Outdoorsman.
Take a look through the gallery to see what you think of the sketches for these concepts, and scroll down for the full announcement from FCA.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles already previewed its 2014 SEMA show lineup with some slick renders. Now, the automaker has finally showed us the actual cars, and among the group there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
Dodge is really showing off its muscle at this year's show with four concepts that all pump up the power of the brand's models. Perhaps most interesting among them is the Challenger T/A Concept (pictured above) in striking Sublime Green and matte black. It's meant to resemble the classic Trans Am racer from the '70s. Under the hood is a 6.4-liter V8, and to fit the vintage style there's a pistol-grip gearshift inside.
The Charger R/T also gets some attention with the Mopar concept that shows off what FCA's aftermarket performance arm can do. Mods include an updated body kit, cold-air intake for the 5.7-liter V8 and a coil-over suspension kit. Beyond that, the Dart R/T Concept looks a lot meaner with a black hood with duct work that leads straight to the air intake. The rest of the compact sedan is dolled up in O-So-Orange paint and is fitted with upgrades to improve handling like a coil-over suspension and big brake kit from the Mopar catalog.
