Chris picked up this 1968 Dodge Dart, Slant 6, column shifter tonight.

8,300 original miles. Starts and runs.

You guys think there is any hope for it?

I had a friend that had one with a 440-6 on it. It could get out of its' own way...when the wheels stopped spinning.

He is learning to balance his time Ron, if that is what you are thinking about. I heard him tell the guy yesterday that he couldn't pick it up for two weeks if he couldn't get it last night. He knows this will be a long term unwinding project.

No had nothing to do with relaxing, thats a great idea. We all have to recharge, I'm not a DART fan
 
Cool he'll have fun doing that up.
 
He got it for $300 plus taking the time to haul a hopeless old oldsmobile to the scrapyard. This guyshas about ten old cars like tbis stored at his cabin on the mountain. He starts them once a month but doesn't drive them. This one has been sitting in tbe same spot for 22 years. Prior to that it had been stored an unknown number of years in town.

Tonight will be the first night night Chris will send hisguy out to work by himself all night without following him around to check on him. So he is working on this thing so he can sleep without tossing and turning with worry!

He is flushing out the fuel system and cleaning out the tank. carb looks good. He needs brake hardware for one wheel befor he can drive it though.
 
Enter it into a Derby, have fun for 300 with it.

I had a buddy who spent 40,000 on a gremlin once, I think it's still worth 300.00 to this day.

I mean if you hurry and throw it on the corner you might get 250 call the 50 dollar loss a win.

These other guys can encourage you I'm your real friend. Find another project, 68 firebird convert able
