'69 Dart GTS #s 383/4-sp Project, Last Driven in '78

[scuncio]

Neat car still wearing a good portion of its original paint. Evidently one of 784 produced...and bidding is pretty strong so far, with 5 days left to go.

Strong bidding, indeed. That's a good, solid foundation but it's still gonna need a substantial cash infusion to finish it off the right way.

I was wondering where the crank was...

Probably not advisable to leave it there while the car is being transported :smirk:

Maybe Graveyard Carz Mark Worman owner would make a bid. Big Mopar guy and love his show. 69 Dart GT 340 would put away these 383 cubic inch motors. Anyhow solid car and good restoration project.

When I read the description that the 383 engine was legendary, I just rolled my eyes. What they were known for was being on par with an L35 396.


It is a really solid looking project and would be fun to do.

Still, a 383 is cooler in a Dart than a 340, IMO, as is an L35 vs. a 350 in a '67 Camaro.

For appearance sake, yeah, but when either small block will kick butt on their larger brethren, in original form, that's just not cool... https://www.yenko.net/forum/data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhGQAZALMMAAAAAFJSUnNzc5SUlJzO//8xAP97Y/+UhP+llP/Oxv/nhP///wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACH/C05FVFNDQVBFMi4wAwEAAAAh+QQJCgAMACwAAAAAGQAZAAAEtJ BJCWqdOOuKOjLXFk6AZxrgpgBYiSSJiwAoS1o2U8JwCRw1Uu/DcvUAiU7FULAhZxZd55iEMp1KonQKO11vuK3J22wlU7SsF1AG5 9IzT62Jq6xaqBqOPugLBAArOTp5eQVNfXWBAIAtbIeHAAOABJW Vi3+DOnV/gIp/AZobnaSgoRqoFQGrrKGiqZmfp6gknX1+pLO0jAK3t7mvtX++pb qpAaXFxsfIysu7AK2sI7QZioMRAAAh+QQJCgAMACwAAAAAGQAZ AAAEtZBJCWqdOOuKOjKXJjKAZxogZm1dkpQdgAIToNBZ6bolcM wUC47SegESMVmhwvsMYbxj0rCUCmue3YnKQZRSRJMYtSQJn4bY GFQmIcGUtNczq56HcRRIWB34bQACIXl6VEt/FjeBgioABY+PAAOCBJWABIt4ZkICnXeLAZobnaSlAaEjOQCnrK eDqSSedwKosIsCfn6ltKIqnbm5pr01pMC7tSOru8fIyafLrMOq rdHSIp8YEQAAIfkECQoADAAsAAAAABkAGQAABLKQSQlqnTjrij oylyYygGcaIBVuXZKUHYACpEKLpeuWwDFbqwlsB0jEZMXX5yZs vYpHkBGYgSF0J1BsWTV5P4YCMEgybLMAMTRVNSOsM/WYSUH9LOoBwCboB2V2KAViA3p7QH4YFYOMAAMCAASHBJQAiYpj fZBzfQF0OJqhnZ4jVQABqKmenyOWm5mkpSSahYWisa19tbWhuK C6vL2sigGit744qMapwxunqqhksiRzGBEAACH5BAkKAAwALAAA AAAZABkAAASrkEkJap0464o6MpelZYBnGiCgAONUIknyIkAqtm Ucl8AB7B/WprP7dSoJ2o1ElBmVx+BopjtZlpiZyYMygqaG6Ml2wYVpXFBBd S27UN3rmj0Q2AVuRg2OKqwHbG12QhQAfocAdWwEjIwAgySCg22 PAgGEOHeadgGXLZGdoZ15n5WUj56fencDrXWaqZkCrq6wmBust baqAAGbm6Oqep2/obc4vaKjx7yUGBEAACH5BAkKAAwALAAAAAAZABkAAAS3kEkJap 304l2RR4bGAAqwYcCnGuFomWeKJImMACxApy0307XbIZe4WXy/StEY8vBgE9lO58QVXiLKB7gyXKm9qGoM8mJjBuc49y2dKOnbh2 0pHVGs3Os7IAEEgFk4eSwFVwN9fhaBKACGjwADAgAEBJSVloyN L4CTWH8CAVBvI52mgAGipBwAqa6pWaugn3+qq6WAiIintqSgur qmvW+gAsC8ozEBp7zDxKnMrsm+ra+w07e0GBEAACH5BAUKAAwA LAAAAAAZABkAAAS5kEkJap3Y4gyQR8aVKcBGfagRTpbIeknSeY BaAnG3vnGOAAcbA/fTnBA5YtFQqNBApWMyQas1h63o8NNLMaPE3RZFVl2xrqHh6QWc ASRTjQ0KNVskLUVla90HgHAAAmk1fGZNgRZ5AoQcBZCQAAOEBJ YEAJaDjhwtjYRZmwF6JkOfp40Bo6VyAKqvqmmspqBZAquztAKA gKi4rJu8vKe/pZu7w8SkG66ovsXGqs6vy8ausLHVs6F6EQAAOw==

Agree, the 340 GS Dart will beat those 383 ci inch powerplants everytime.
