1969 Dodge Dart Gt on 2040-cars
San Jose, California, United States
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.

Mopar highlights wild SEMA creations, AWD Challenger Concept
Tue, Nov 3 2015Thanks to 15,345 square feet of display area, FCA US' Mopar division certainly has ample space to display its parts and accessories at the SEMA Show. To lure attendees to check out all of those cars and components, the company is now revealing ten tuned vehicles for this year's aftermarket event. This isn't even the brand's whole fleet for the show, but it includes some major highlights for Dodge and Ram fans. A lack of traction traditionally makes rear-wheel-drive muscle cars dismal to drive when the weather gets slippery, but the Dodge Challenger GT AWD Concept (above) solves that age-old problem at SEMA. In addition to powering all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic, it boasts an angry-looking, wide-body kit with aggressively flared wheel arches. The asymmetrical stripe with Header Orange accents also adds some extra panache to the Destroyer Grey and Matte Black color scheme. The coupe can back up the macho look thanks to the Scat Pack 3 Performance Kit that adds 75 horsepower and 44 pound-feet of torque to the 5.7-liter V8. However, before you get too excited about driving one this winter, FCA US spokesperson Ariel Gavilan tells Autoblog: "It is only a concept." Mopar isn't done tuning Dodges for SEMA. The Charger Deep Stage 3 shows what's possible with the company's catalog by packing the Scat Pack 3, strut tower braces, coilover suspension kit, and bigger brakes. Meanwhile, the blacked-out Dart GLH Concept tries to harken back to the style of the famous Omni GLH by fitting a red-accented body kit, including a Mopar Performance aluminum hood. If the standard Ram 1500 Rebel is somehow too subdued, check out the Rebel X (right) in a vibrant shade called Copper. To be ready for anything offroad, it wears some muscular flares to fit 17-inch beadlock wheels and 35-inch Toyo tires. A concept, two-piece front skid plate protects the front. Drivers should also be comfortable no matter where they drive thanks to prototype Katzkin leather seats and a concept air-ride suspension. Chrysler enjoys some mods, as well. The 300 Super S has suave style with Matte Cerulean paint, concept 22-inch wheels, and a grille with little Mopar Ms dotted around it. Performance also sees a boost with a tuned engine, bigger brakes, and coilover kit. The gray 200 S Mopar is similarly stylish with a complete body kit, including a conceptual, dual-vented hood. Fiat and Ram's commercial models aren't left out of the SEMA fun, either.
Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.
Stellantis not looking for further mergers, including with Renault
Mon, Feb 5 2024MILAN — Stellantis Chairman John Elkann on Monday denied the carmaker was hatching merger plans, responding to press speculation about a possible French-led tie-up with rival Renault. Elkann said that the Peugeot owner, the world's third largest carmaker by sales, was focused on the execution of its long-term business plan. "There is no plan under consideration regarding merger operations with other manufacturers," said Elkann, who also heads Exor, the Agnelli family holding company that is the largest single shareholder in Stellantis. After abandoning the Russian market, at the time its second largest after France, and reducing the scope of its global cooperation with Nissan, Renault has been seen as a potential M&A target. Speculation intensified after an electric vehicle market slowdown forced it last week to cancel IPO plans for its EV and software unit Ampere. Its market cap remains stubbornly low at little over 10 billion euros ($10.8 billion) despite a financial recovery over the past few years. Stellantis, the product of a 2021 merger between France's PSA and Fiat Chrysler and one of the most profitable groups in the industry, has a market cap of more than 85 billion euros when unlisted shares are factored in. It has a 14 brand portfolio also including Citroen, Jeep, Opel and Alfa Romeo. NEWSPAPER REPORT Italian daily Il Messaggero had said on Sunday that the French government, which is Renault's largest shareholder and also has a stake in Stellantis, was studying plans for a merger between the two groups. A spokeswoman for Renault said on Monday the group did not comment on rumors. France's Finance Ministry had declined to comment on Sunday. Stellantis has crossed swords with the Italian government, which has accused it of acting against the national interest on occasions. Industry Minister Adolfo Urso last week raised the prospect of the Italian government taking a stake in Stellantis to help to balance the French influence. Renault shares pared gains after Elkann's comments to stand 1.2% higher by 1220 GMT, having initially risen more than 4%. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares, a Portuguese-national, last week said in an interview with Bloomberg that the group was "ready for any kind of consolidation" and that its job was to make sure that it would be "one of the winners". Analysts, however, question the rationale of a Stellantis-Renault merger, which would also expand the group's excess capacity in Europe.
