1966 Dodge Dart Gt Hardtop 2-door 2.8l on 2040-cars
Delta, Pennsylvania, United States

I have had this car for 32 years now and it breaks my heart to have to get rid of it. I received the car as a gift when I graduated from high school and I drove it hard for about 15 yrs. It's had a few fender benders which were fixed. My father and brother are both mechanics and body and fender men that have taken excellent care of the car. However, after acquiring several other cars, a bike, a house and family I had little time to devote to the car. As a result it landed a happy parking place in the garage; where it sat alone for a number of years. It's been about 20 yrs since I drove it on a daily bases. Occasionally I drove it for a short ride, however, I have not started the car in the past 3 yrs. I can tell you the last time I drove it it started right up after charging the battery and ran great. Could not tell you much else about the slant 6 engine except it is a very easy car to work on and that I rolled the odometer several times. The body of this car is still in good shape considering it is almost 50 yrs old. It is steel and has all it's original chrome although some have been banged up. The rear quarter panels were repaired once however, they need some additional bodywork. This car has power steering and manual brakes. When it was younger it had no problems winning both street races and track races. Being that this car is very basic compared to todays standards it would not take much to restore this car to the dream car it once was. This would be the perfect project for a beginner historian. This car was one of only 5,000 Darts made with the GT chrome package in 1966. This car is a true gem. You would never have to worry about anyone else having a car like yours with this one.

Dodge Durango gets the Blacktop treatment
Sat, 09 Aug 2014The Dodge Durango is getting a meaner, more aggressive look as it becomes the latest model from the brand to wear the Blacktop Appearance Package. The upgrades are strictly cosmetic, but they lend the SUV a more assertive demeanor that some buyers like.
Available on the SXT, Limited and R/T (shown above) models, all Blacktop Durangos get black 20-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bod- color fascia and gloss black trim. The grille surround, air dam, mirrors and headlight surrounds all get the inky treatment, as well. The improvements add $1,590 to the cost of the SXT. They come to $1,990 on the Limited but also include HID headlights with LED running lights and a leather interior. Finally, R/T buyers only need to pay $295 for the upgrades. The Blacktop Durango hits showrooms this October.
If you're already in the market for a Durango but want a dash more style with no added performance, the Blacktop might not be a bad way to go. It certainly gives the SUV a bit more edge than it has in stock form. Scroll down to read the full release.
Mopar '13 Dart priced from $25,485*
Wed, 12 Jun 2013For the past few years, Chrysler's Mopar in-house tuning division has created its own one-off versions of several cars in the automaker's portfolio, including the Mopar '10 Challenger, Mopar '11 Charger and Mopar '12 300. For 2013, the black-and-blue up-do has been given to the new Dart compact, and Chrysler has announced that the limited-edition sedan is now available for order, priced from $25,485, not including *$995 for destination.
Like previous Mopar edition vehicles, the Dart is painted in a signature Pitch Black exterior with an offset blue racing stripe. The sedan sits seven millimeters lower to the ground and gets visual add-ons like a chin spoiler, decklid spoiler and rear diffuser, along with gloss black 18-inch alloy wheels.
Performance wise, the Dart's 1.4-liter MultiAir inline four-cylinder engine remains, producing 160 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The Mopar car gets a sport-tuned exhaust system along with revised power steering calibration and beefier brakes.
2013 Dodge Durango R/T
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.
