I had a '71 318 Dart and a '67 383 Monaco. Practically everyone in my family had a Dart of some year. I had near 300,000 on the original Dart motor before the frame rusted through. The motor was still strong but the trans and rear end were ready to fall out. Wished I could have kept it longer.

My older brother had the cousin to that, a 1970 AAR Cuda. I've wanted one since I was 14 years old. You're a lucky guy!

I see you're in Pa. Let me know when that Cuda is there and I'll drive down to see it in person. I can see from your website that you're my kind of people :)

I had a 69 GTX 440 with the slap stick auto. Rust bucket but boy did it ever smoke the tires...
