one about 12 years ago, but it was beyond my abilities at the time.

and Facebook marketplace for a few weeks and tried to narrow down the list of cars to just a few.

I found a 1964 Dart on Craigslist just a few miles from my house in Fort Worth, TX. The car has a 225 slant six with a
push button 904 and 7.25” rear axle.

suspension bushings and brakes. It appears to have been repainted a few years ago and has a pretty nice interior from
that partial restoration.

broke so it was difficult to get it into Reverse and Neutral. Luckily I’m also working on a 1927 Model T hot rod with a
361 and push button 727 as well and was able to steal the shifter from that for now.

has a few rust holes in the trunk, but it’s a really solid car for its age.
