@@AtZero138 I had a ‘67 Dart 270 with the slant 6. 2 door black vinyl top, no window post. I loved cruising around with all the windows down. Loved that car. It was also a grandma special…(literally. It was my grandmothers car. She gave it to me when she stopped driving)

My first car was a 49 Merc deluxe coupe. I bought it for $50, replaced a blown head gasket and drove it for many years. In 1984 I sold it because things were tight, and we needed to money not my old car. Fast forward to 1998 and I saw it sitting by the side of the road. It no longer ran and was pretty haggard looking. I bought it off the guy for $200. Spent 1 year rebuilding the flat head V-8, tranny and fixing her up and the old girl now runs and drives better than ever. She sits right next to my 33 Ford Opera Coupe and my 70 Super Cuda.

Great video, love the little trivia questions something you don't see on other car channels. Can't wait to see mom's car being restored.

My BF in high school had a 68 Dart GTS with 383 automatic, 323 posi rear end. Sucker was so cool.

Had a '69 Dart sedan when I was a kid and in college, then sold it in '79 for a Honda Accord hatchback. My Dart (lime green) only had the 273 V8 3 spd auto 2bbl because my Dad was too cheap to get anything more exciting. The car DID handle like crap in its stock configuration, but that was mitigated with an aftermarket rear sway bar from JC Whitney , and in 1972, a set of Michelin steel belted radials which were very expensive and handled WAY better than the 4-ply or 2+2 fiberglass/bias ply available at the time. It was a decent utilitarian daily driver, but didn't inspire any fun that the guys talk about when they restore the cars on the channel. I do remember being able to tell the difference between the '67, 68, 'and 69 Darts by the side marker and tail-lamps, as they were all unique. in '70 and later they used a standardized side marker lamp/reflector, so it was a bit tougher to tell the difference.

I work for a marina in Westchester County, NY. We used to manufacture wooden boats called Tobin Craft back in the early 1960s. Though from a separate family, I grew up restoring cars with my grandfather who won several awards over the years with rather mundane cars that were restored THAT well. This is what led me to the marina and the family that runs it. It also leads me to apply that same motivation to preserve these old things within the recreational marine industry. We happen to be a 60+ year Mercury Marine (Kiekaeffer) dealer. We currently own the last Tobin Craft 24' Skiff made in 1961, powered by a Graymarine/Steudebaker 327 ci. dual side-draft V-8. I'm trying to lead a charge to start restoring these boats from this era at my marina, even if at a slow pace. I did a big engine re-seal and "tidy" on a 1970 Century ski boat last year that ran a Chrysler Marine 318, but it had some work done... it was bored, stroked, and blueprinted to 410 ci., yet held a smooth idle and sounded (as well as looked) bone stock. Cruised at about 40 mph turning 3600 rpm... sounded like a symphony, felt like a time machine... Man, I love this stuff... all of it, whether it rolls or floats...

I had a 1969 Dodge Dart. It had a 273 v8. And I had a 1971 duster with a slant 6 , it was a brown-red color and a reflection stripe on the sides. Loved those old cars, wish I still had them.

I still have my 69 Dart factory 273 with bucket seats ,automatic on floor and factory air. Original paint white with the blue interior has 117,000 on it and will never get rid of it. Bought it 20 years ago from orig owner.

That’s an amazing story on this dart

I lived in Rochester Minnesota 81-95. In the fall of 1994 I had a garage sale and as I was packing up an old lady drove up in a medium green 2 door Plymouth Fury III, vinyl top, 7,000 miles. I’m a Ford nut and yet I found myself literally starting to drool looking at this car. She lived in a high rise condo in downtown Rochester. I have no idea what engine was in it. I’m hoping that it eventually got into the hands of someone who preserved it.

I found my 1964 Nova this morning that I bought in 1967, it was setting in my garage, couldn’t let her go.

Love your work😍😍😍

When will this mom's car ever get finished? I have been waiting for years to see the finished product

As a classic car restorer, you need very deep pockets to have a large professional shop do your restoration.

We still have the 1970 Barracuda that we bought new. 318 automatic lime green, with 98000 miles

37:05 this cuda wold be smoking as a pale lime 70's green with those stripes and lettering on it. Leave every existing chrome piece

I've never bought a vehicle new in a forest, or bought any vehicle in a forest. 🤣 (just funnin with your video title - I can't resist dad jokes as you can see)

back in the late 70's early 80's I had a 68 Barracuda Formula S 340 4 speed convertible that i had bought from the original owner. It had a lot of cool options, except manual drums although eventually I found the 4-piston small diameter disc brakes for it. That car got a lot attention, even before the muscle car thing took off in the 80's. I was in college tho, so ended selling it to a guy in the WPC club...i'm sure its been well taken care of. Somewhere in all my crap i have the build sheet for it...not too long ago I found the original Formula S badges i had replaced with NOS back in the day. Would love to see it again someday...

I have a 1969 Dart Swinger 340 auto that I have own for approx 25 to 30 years.Its currently in restoration mode,which is on hold,in order to build a garage to store it.

My uncle had 1971 Dodge Demon he bought new in 71. It was painted Purple and I have always wanted one just like it. Needless to say it was one of my favorite cars.

great show love the dart

This is the 3rd time I've watched this episode. It would be nice to see the Stanley Dart worked on.

I did a six pack set upon my 71 340 Demon back in 1974. Also did a 2X4 cross ram set up as well later on I went back to the original stock intake and Thermoquad.

i miss my 1970 340 Duster bought new in the Spring of 1970. 4 speed, 3.91 limited slip. Sublime Green or Sassy Grass Green (get the names confused). Buckets, black interior, black vinyl roof. Did a few performance mods but basically stock. Foolishly sold it about 10 years later.

Nothing about a mom who found her dodge dart GTS misleading

My father had a car just like this. not a convertible he bought it when he got back from Vietnam and after he rehabed for losing a leg finger 1 eye

Beautiful car🤠

Riding in my mom's daytona has a very distinct sound i had always accredited to the big wing. I hope all that sound deadening doesn't change it on this one.

I've been trying to find a 1964 Valiant Signet Convertible which had the optional 318 V8 in it that was purchased new for my Grandmother. I have photos and the original order sheet from the dealer for the car which has the VIN number. Was a white color when new but some photos the car looked like a cream color. I believe the car was sold off sometime in 1967 to someone in the Cleveland area.

My 68 Dart GT was stolen back in 95, I had a 65 2 door Belair stolen in the 80s. Florida stll has my Vin #'s listed as stolen, because I keep checking every 5yrs or so....

I have to go down to that junkyard in Texas. To start looking in the old section

This is the same video content of the 68-dart you posted in multiple videos going back a year. So when are you going to post an actual update on this Dart?

I remember Buddy Baker saying the wing does nothing under 150 mph. Because of the wing side supports. It was really hard to spin out.

I found my 1983 Ram truck that I sold 22 years before seen it for sale in a front yard Wasn't even sure it was the same truck because it was a different color but then I recognized the dent on the tailgate and the one by the headlight that I put in in a bad snow storm. Bought it and drove it for a few years and now my son has it.

American Racers 5 slotters with FAT BF Goodrich Radial T/A tyres... yes, this is def the way to go. What I had back in the day, what looks right now. Truly timeless

Hopefully the owners will live to see it done

Shooting at Biscuits? 😂

These shows are great about talking around not talking about how to do the job

I miss my '72 Dart Swinger with a 318. My hope is one day soon, I will find another one as I NOW have the skills to do what I wanted to do then. Now I just need to find the car and the time to do it 🎉🎉

I did some IT Support for a marine engineer's once with original account books from 1760!

This is the 2nd time you premiered the same damn video. Found the same one posted by you April 2022.

Wish I still had my high school car, a 1975 Chrysler Cordoba. It was all black with the 360 and 727 trans. I had sold it to my brother in the mid-1990's and he drove it to Pennsylvania and sold it to another guy, who later wrecked it badly. RIP VIN SS22K5R183971.

Not really a Mopar guy, but being as you're in Springfield and I was born and raised in Cascadia I'll subscribe and watch your videos. (not saying that I wouldn't turn down a 69 Charger)!

1969 Dodge Charger Daytona is in my top 3 favorite cars

I'm mostly watching this for the cool t'shirts...

what season was this in originally?

68 Dart Gonna be an expensive restoration 😮

Do y’all ever show delivery?

How can I find out about my 72 roadrunner it came with A 400 big block and 3 speed stick is it anything odd or what?

It really goes fast if you fast forward through his bs.

These cars aren't for car enthusiasts anymore, they're now investment. That's why the average joe can't have nice things anymore. I was lucky enough to have some of these cars ( 1971 dodge demon ) for under 2k in the early 90s, and a buick GN around 1998. But now, the newer cars outperforms these easily. Even non sport model. They were cool when you could have them for cheap, but when I see someone paying 100k and more for them, I can't help but thinking it's ridiculous.

What Forest did she buy it in?

??????? on the 1968 dart why was the side trim different from the old pictures in the drive way , and then the found pictures in the woods .

Maybe some day you will start on the 68 dart gts.....it's Ben yrs haven't seen anything on it 🤮

So did he find his charger?

So they found the car with the plates still on it did they find out from the second owner why it was there.

Funny how people find there old cars 40 years later and just so happens they can afford a compl restoration

Does Mark ever find his car?

How did She buy it new in a forest?

In my opinion, a car isn’t totally complete, unless there are BOTH side view mirrors are on the car. Just my point of view

Strange place to buy a new car , IN A FOREST

Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the German Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing petrol stations to only one state operated central gas station per city. From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any more...

It's false because I owned a 1973 Dodge Deamon

I still have my 1970 Dart 340 Swinger that I bought from the original owner in 1983. The 340 Dart that is featured in this episode is more interesting to me than even the Hemi Coronet. I do understand that the owner might not have the cash to go full speed on the restoration.

Same crap played again, how bout finishing this damn car ?
