so I really don't like the dart so I may sell it or part it out and sell as a roller the dart has a 8 3/4 rear 3.91 sure grip newly rebuilt should I switch them out and start building a sleeper

so after 2 hrs inspecting the bottom I have examined this car top to bottom and not found a pinhole of rust through a lot of factory paint on the bottom so will try to preserve it does need a tail pipe and maybe a rear end gasket

[booker t jones]

front suspension seems very good drove about 100 miles probably in better condition than

you would of expected of a used 66 coronet in 69 or 70 growing to like the patina of the faded hood and trunk
