1969 Dodge Dart Custom 273 2BBL

Summary:

Good reliable transportation

Starter blew twice.

Alternator quit.

I replaced all rubber hoses/belts and seals.

This car is great because the parts are still easily found and fairly cheap. It is also very easy to work on.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

A "grocery getter" which will surprise the best of them

The original Slant Six decided to throw a rod.

Have replaced numerous parts (precautionary).

I decided to upgrade into a 360/727 combo after the original motor went out.

This is the second A-Body Mopar I have owned- with many more as parts cars. They cannot be beat.
