'71 V8/4-speed Dart, $500 Gas Station Find

Man...it has been years since I've seen a car this old rotting beside a gas station. Looks pretty rough but it's a V8/4-speed car, pretty amazing to find something like this in 2018.

Cool hood scoops - have always liked these boxy little bodies!

That's not a 4 speed..... that's a 3 speed shifter. 4 Speed would be a Hurst, FYI

So, if a "V8" in '71 that would be a 318 cu in and most likely a 2bbl.

Pretty cool..Makes you wonder what the Fathers back story is on that.

Exactly as indicated by the G in the VIN = 318-2Bbl.
