1968 Dodge Dart Additional Info:
1968 Dodge Dart GTS 340
Up for auction is this 1 owner local garage find real 340 GTS. It even comes with the original title. The odometer shows 87k which appears to be correct to the best of my knowledge. It is all original with its 100% original drivetrain. It has a 727 torquflite and 3.23 rear w/o sure grip. The motor starts right up and sounds good if you poor gas down the carb without ticking smoking or anything. The original radiator has been redone and oil changed. The gas tank has 30 year old gas still in it so I would clean it or just replace it to be safe. The trans goes into gear but I have not driven it since the brake pedal goes to the floor. So please dont ask if you can drive it home . The answer is no. Being from the midwest it has its share of rust but as ugly as it is is much better than most. Unfortunately the fender tag rusted almost away. I have not pulled seats to see if the broadcast sheet is there so hopefully it is. The floors, rails, and trunk are much better than most and are very solid. The car luckily was undercoated when new which really helped save the under carriage, All of the GTS only badges and emblems are in place except it appears the left front fender was replaced at 1 time. The car is complete with the only things I see missing are the ashtray, half of the exhaust, hub caps, trunk lock, and some of the jack pieces. This car is really worthy of a full restoration being as correct as it is. I hope someone has the time and love for this car it deserves. I have 3 cars ahead of it and I know I wont be able to touch it anytime soon so I am willing to pass it on for a fair price. As you can see in the pictures I have not even washed the car. Im leaving it as I bought it for the person who buys it to do. Im only listing this car once. If it doesnt sell Im putting it away until I have time for it.
