Nice looking collection of Mopar.

I bet Mhuppertz will like the wheelie bars and tire and rim combo on the Dart.

Really? What kind of out of this world coincidence would that be, what a moron. Unfortunately, no build sheet...Mark
Would that have been when the car was new?

Anyway, unless you have pulled out the seats, the carpet, and the fuel tank, don't give up your hopes in finding a build sheet, I have found them in all of those places, sometimes in all 3 on the same car.

No, I don't have the paper with me, but IIRC, it was in 1974. The catlemen's association still exists and they still do charity work. I found some old news paper articles, but none about this car. It is a place to start to find provenance on the car, when I seriously start on it, I'll do a lot more digging. I do know that it was sold in Illinois, apparently was in Florida at one point and ended up in my garage in 1994. I have looked in all those places, no build sheet. My last hope is under the upholstery, I have heard of them being there...Mark
