1968 Dodge Dart by Mr. Norm

[crazyjim]

I might have been blessed with growing up near Chicago because it was a fairly short trip to Mr. Norm's Gran Spaulding Dodge and the only place you could get a 1968 Dodge Dart with a 440 engine.  Here's my version of what you could buy off the showroom floor. I used a set of those AMT red line tires and tied my hand with hypodermic tubing for the antenna.

Very nice ! Nice job on the roof.

[crazyjim]

Thanks Ray.  The kit roof came from the factory with a vinyl top.  I just painted it flat black and rubbed nose oils on it.

Beautiful build of an iconic car. The black paint is really smooth looking.

Thanks David.  There's a coup;e bad spots in the paint.

Those 440 A-bodies could really haul a$$.

A fine piece of work indeed!

(the front plate is a nice touch)

Great looking Dart!

[crazyjim]

Thanks Keith.

Way back when, I went to Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge to get a Hyper-Pak (4 barrel carb, intake manifold, cam)  and wheel well headers for my 1964 Dodge Dart.  Since it was a slant 6, I called Lambcharger.
