Or is about to. I Know I dont need it, but dang, in a way I really do, with the motor and trans out in my '78 and my Mom hounding me to fix the car up (I'm swapping drivetrains this weekend so its no excuse there), I need a second or third vehicle.

The car is a '71 Dart Custom 4-dr little old lady car. My Cousin bought it originally for $500, they are asking $900. It has 116k on it but thats nothing. Interior is PERFECT! Car is B-5 blue on black, I like that. Paint not the best but the car is SOLID! Its also a 318/auto car with Air and PS, but manual brakes.

So its basically kind of a survivor. BUT thats not really going to stop me from driving it because like I said, I need a good vehicle when my Truck is loaded and I'm working on my other car (I'd rather drive a car anyway because of the gas mileage).

No pics yet, will take some maybe this weekend.
 
you need to do what i did...pick a body style and stick with it..and pick yourself up a 4 banger k-car or mini van for mileage when gas is high...turbos are a BLAST
 
Well, umm, its uhh, umm, OK, its TWENTY-THREE!

Thats also counting ones in the JY or ones that are going:

'74 Dart 4-cr (in yard, parts)
'77 Gran Fury Brougham (ditto)
'78 Aspen SE 4-dr (going to yard ASAP)
'78 Volare Wagon (Ditto)
'78 Fury KHP (in yard, coming home maybe)
'84 Gran Fury (heading to yard)
'88 5th Ave (headed BACK to yard next week/end)

ok that would leave 16 here, the rest will probably be sold till I'm down to these:

'70 Fury Gran Coupe
'70 Sport Fury GT
'71 Dart Custom 4-dr
'74 Monaco 4-dr
'77 Volare 2-dr cpe
'78 Monaco 2-dr HT
'78 Aspen R/T
'89 Ram 100 pick-up.

HOPING to start the removal process in a couple weeks by calling the yard and having them come get three.
 
Jeesely crow! [smilie=2:
My guess time 2!

Honest Jamies car lot....we buy 'em cheap and keep 'em! :D

It's cool Jamie..If I had the room I'd have a shitload of cars also. [smilie=w:
 
Not really other than the front clip thats perfect, but I gotta hang onto that. Unless you need glass but the w-shield is busted. Taillights might also be good as would back bumper.
 
Dr. J has been promising to get me a roof spoiler for a year now. **looking around to see if the Yooper is listening** [smilie=e: [/size]

Well, whuddya think? The Rust you see in one pic is surface only and there is some on the left hood front. Paint is flaking also in places, this color was notorious. Its '71 GB5 blue BTW. I'm thinking SBP (or LBP if I put disks on it) Rallyes would look pretty good along with a better paintjob, though its nice as is.
 
Nice Jamie that'll make a nice car for you! Now you'll be able to fix the one's you want to keep for yourself without having to worry about a driver! [smilie=e: [smilie=e: [smilie=e: [smilie=e: [smilie=e:
