1963 Dodge Dart. Runs, drives, complete (mostly)

1963 Dodge Dart

This car is complete, never wrecked. All chrome trim pieces are there except four letters that are part of "DODGE" (think the G is the only letter there). Rust is minimal for a 54 year old car. Engine is a 225 slant six, tranny is a three speed column shift. Runs and drives, clean title. But don't think you can just hop in and enjoy mile after mile of trouble-free driving. The most serious issue is the shift linkage-only has 2nd and 3rd currently). Seriously, this is a pain. Advise dropping in a floor-mount shift kit, maybe swap out the 3 speed for a 4 speed or an automatic if so inclined. Interior is bad, driver side floorpan is rusted and should be replaced. Driver door needs to be adjusted so it closes easily. Windshield cracked (new windshield approx. $200) No parking brake, but have all the hardware. Steering components have had all the original rubber crack and dry over the years, will need to rebuild that. Engine needs a tuneup. DOES NOT SMOKE! Headlight dimmer switch needs to be replaced (around $5). I do have a reprint of the factory shop manual.

Dashboard was butchered, so I added a steel lunchbox and made it a second glove box. Headlineris missing, but all hardware is there. When thiswas on the Detroit assembly line, a worker painted "Gary" on theinterior roof using the same cooler blue paint as the original interior. I have two replacement door panels for the front doors.

The excellent British rockabilly band The Polecats signed the glove box door.

This car can be driven short distances. I regularly drive it towork and back (18 miles round trip). Caris currently registered.
It's solid, it's straight, it's mostly all there, it's rare. It is a great foundation for a starter project-but it is a project.
I can take specific photos if you want. Except nude images. Trust me, you don't want that.

Her name is Betty. She'd appreciate it if you could keep it, but that is up to you.

If the winner lives in Las Vegas, I'll driveBetty to you. If you need to have it shipped, the cost and hassle is yours. Overseas buyers are welcome, but again, your responsibility getting her home. I can still drive it to a Vegas shipping point, though.$750 of selling price due within48 hours of auction end; remainder within two weeks or when car is shipped or picked up.
