[Cranky]

Underdash for the Dart in 64 but it should have a V2 compressor and a Airtemp unit inside. View attachment 1528697

My bud sent me a pic of the under dash unit but can't find it now.....iirc, it looked like that. I'll find out in a week or so lol

Yeah, the 13's are history but....the caps and rings that are on it look kinda cool

Betting that paint will polish up nice also... kinda jealous

I had caps and rings once upon a time. A nice clean look I always thought.

The 1st gen Darts are all pretty cool imo but I like the later models better but....will accept the early ones too

My very first car was a 65 Dart 270 post with a HP273 and a 3 on the tree. It was a little screamer. When I wanted to get back into the hobby 15+ years ago I was looking for a nice 64. I found this 66 an hour away on E bay. It's a HP 273/833/ 8 3/4 SG. It works for me.

Oh man....all I can say is that's cool!! A 273 with a stick would be fun as can be!

Gonna be over on A-body forum a lot now, huh ?

looks OK in the 1 photo

I'd be tempted to put any Mopar v8 & 4 (or 5) speed in it
narrowed 8-3/4"

It needs wheels & tires
everything needs wheels & tires 1st thing after safety,
15"s & no poverty caps
small 4" bolt pattern will be the biggest deterrent

should be fun,
good luck
