A Dart Sport Convertriple?

 

[mopar_man]

Convertriple? I don't think so. I'm sure I saw a picture of a convertible once though

 

[Da-ho]

Triple what? six pak motor? [smilie=e: [smilie=b:

Yeah I've heard of them, but off the top of my head I can't remember what it means. Something about 3 different cars in one, normal, sun roof, fold down rear seat maybe?

 

[dodgechargerfan]

That's it!

I have some ads but the pictures (too big to post I'm working on 'em.) don't really do anything to indicate what the three cars are...

One is obviously the sun-roof and they call that the convertible.
They call it a family wagoon, although I don't really see it - I guess that's the fold down seat part.
The third? Just a car. maybe....

At first I thought it was a hatch back - but it's not...

So, I guess this is just an option package and marketing rather than an actual model or trim kit or the like....

third part is a security panel between trunk and rear seat same as the Space Duster package! [smilie=e:

Yeah, the "convertriple" was the combination of both the sunroof and the fold-down seat. I looked at one when I was in high school; it was a '75 or '76 with a 360-4v and a 4-speed, though I'm pretty sure both were transplanted into it. Sure was fast, though.

The Hang 10 guys all want the 360-4v convertriple as it's the rarest Hang 10 version.

I know it's supposed to be a clever marketing term, but it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, does it?

Well its a good day-all us smart farts learned something. [smilie=e: Thanks DAVE! [smilie=2:

'twas your request for Space Duster pics that got me looking through my old pics and I came across the ads for the Darts....
