Spirit of 76 Dodge Dart
1976 Dodge Dart
I am selling my 1976 Dodge Dart Lite "Spirit of 76" and 100% of the proceeds will go between Christian Charities and the Wounded Warriors Project. God has blessed my life and it is time for me to give back (although nothing is really enough).There were only 1000 Dodge Dart Lites produced in 1976 and it appears only 100 "Spirit of 76" special editions came off the assembly line.
This particular Spirit of 76 was very solid but the paint was worn and the decals were faded/peeling. I am a military veteran who was an active duty. I am still currently working for the Air Reserves. When I saw this vehicle, I knew it had to be restored.
The engine is a 225 slant six, 100HP, manual torqueflite transmission.
The exterior was repainted in the original color code and the decals were meticulously duplicated by an enthusiast (thanks Tony Short) and recreated by a professional decal shop.
The interior is immaculate with the original seats, the carpet was replaced and so were many of the interior pieces (which were really hard to track down).
All the lights and electronics work.
There is no rust.
This beauty has 100HP so it will not leave rubber, it is more of a cruiser that commands attention. It drives straight, power steering, power brakes.
I was told it has 29K miles, but there is no documentation and I am going to sell it as 129K to be safe and not misrepresent.
This vehicle is being "sold as is".
I only will accept cash or a wire transfer (which can be made directly to the charity).
Transportation is the responsibility of the buyer.
This is truly for a good cause and is a great way to collect a very rare special edition. We are not a perfect country, but we still are the best. Show your patriotism by owning the one thing that can't be confused.
Good luck bidding and God bless!!!

A few other notes I forgot to mention (you can't alter the original post once someone has made a bid):
The Spirit of 76 has a fender tag (located under the hood on the driver's side) and I can send you the picture with the appropriate codes upon request.
I spent almost $1K having the vehicle professionally buffed and covered in ceramic coating, thus the mirror paint and shine will last for years. Ceramic coating does a better job of protecting the exterior of the car from contaminents and scratches, which makes it easier to clean and is far superior to wax (in my humble opinion).
One clarification: This is an automatic transmission and not a manual. I got in a hurry to post this and had a senior moment.
Please contact me if you have any questions or need any clarifications...this is an amazing vehicle that will help support a good cause. God bless!

This is an exercise in humility. I shouldn’t have rushed to post. To clarify: This is a Dodge Dart Sport with the Special Edition option “Spirit of 76”. Thanks for the bidder who pointed this out. I always use integrity and hope this doesn’t negatively impact the bidding as all of the proceeds go to great charities. Sorry again. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for your understanding.
