Nice! Looks good, sure is clean. Everything I get is rusty!

Sweet! pic#2.... Is that a "Jenga" Two-step" lol love them early darts and Valiants. Looking good and not a pOs in my opinion.

WOW, that's a clean looking car and as Woodie said, I don't see a pos there either.

For a POS it's not bad looking and no rust..

That is one big can of beer in the second pic.

Cool little POS !

Early As are an acquired taste. If it was a 68-72 Dart/ 70-72 Duster it would have sold immediately.

Very nice little car, I am starting to get attracted to the 65 -66 Dart and Cuda. That will be my next purchase. Build a nice healthy small block for it and go enjoy it on the street.

Most of the Mopars from the early 60s, are an acquired taste. Just look at the first generation Charger. But like all nice cars there is a good following of the early A's. I for one think the early Valliant's and Darts are nice looking cars, with so much potential.

Thanks guy's,This is the first early A i have owned i've had a couple 70 Darts and a 70 Duster, then mostly B bodies,I bought a SB out of a 69 Dart Was suppose to be a 340 but it's a 318 30 over trw's, 340 steel crank, 273rods, 340 main caps,I have a RPM intake, 650 Holley double pumper,915's 202's ported,Dougs headers, 904,
using the /6 verter should flash around 2800, 8 3/4 323 sure grip,I'm on the hunt for 391's or 355's right now to finish of the parts i need.
Ed.

355s? me too. I thought I was going to bite the bullet and go the Moser/Mancini route but with the US dollar?????????

I did find a soft spot in the L F pan so i fixed it.

Here's some pic's of the int it's all how it came from the factory i only dyed the carpet black again.

I like that. It looks nice, the white gives it class.

Damn thats such a cool little car.

I agree. White on Black just pops.
Looking Good. That little 318 should rev like an empty blender in that car.

Love underdash AC. Will you keep the system?

Thanks guy's, Jeepster i'm keeping the air unit but not going to use it.

Too bad we have to choose between performance and comfort!!

Nice car you got, and nice AC unit.

I will have to disagree with you on this. There are a couple in craigslist and cannot sell and have been for sale for quite some time, with one being on the Island and for sale for over two years.

I know its from an old post but the 8 3/4 that you put in was it a standard size or did you have it shortened. 8" steels rims, did you by them that wide or have them made, what is the back space if you remember.
Thanks

Yep Abody 83/4 rims were made and have a 47/8 ths back space, Need any more info just ask and i'll try to help ya out.
