Powertrain / Chassis:

The 340 motor (not numbers matching) is stroked to 416 with head porting - Stage-I. The block has a 1969 date code. The block was checked for cracks... no issues. The engine contains an Eagle rotating assembly withRoss forged pistons.The intake and carburetor are from Edelbrock. Overall, the outside of the engine assemblywas made to appear stock (minus orange paint for 1969, headers and some misc. components). The engine has roughly 800 miles on it, since the restoration. Please note the odometer was not turned back when the new engine was installed.

The transmission (727 - numbers matching) is an automatic on the column. The transmission was rebuilt prior to beinginstalled in the vehicle. The original torque converter was replaced with a 10" Billet (stall 2800 - 3000)that was purchased through A&A transmission.

The vehicle has manual 10" drum brakes all around and manual steering. The front and rear suspension has been restored/rebuiltand parts/hardware werereplaced as required. The steering column was restored (converted from power to manual steering).

The master cylinder is a reproduction with the original/period correct top.

The drive shaft was rebalanced and new u-joints were installed.

The original radiator was re-cored.

Exterior / Interior:

As previously mentioned, the Dart went through a partial restoration before the powertrain was installed. The engine compartment and underside of hood wererepainted.The restoration took place roughly one year ago. The exterior paint on the Dart is not original, it was repainted when a previous owner had it. The fenders, doors, roof, quarters andtrunk pan appear to be original to the vehicle.

A new vinyl top was installed along with polished original stainless trim. The windshield was replaced along with a new seal. The rear window seal was replaced, but the original glass was reinstalled. All the side glass appears to be original. The front and rear chrome bumpers have some pitting, but appear to be original to the vehicle.

The interior was also restored. A new dash pad was installed roughly 6-months ago. The rear bench seat/seat back were restored with reproduction/period correct vinyl from Legendary Interiors. The front bench seat was restored by the previous owner. The vehicle originally came with a vinyl floor, but I decided to install black carpet. The seatbelts were restored with the correct/reproduction tags installed. There factory AM radio was missing when I purchased the vehicle. To date, I have not replaced it.

The Dart does not have the heater box or heater core installed in the vehicle.The wiper system was also removed from the vehicle.Since I've owned the vehicle, the vehicle has not been out when there is a potential for rain.

The vehicle has a fender tag along with the original monroney label. This is a turn key Mopar that you can get in and show up to cruises/car showsor hit the drag strip for a little old time fun. Well over $30K invested.
