TooOld Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Great looking Hemi Dart ! Like it just came off the truck ! And the trunk looks just fine . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonC Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I got a question about the color of the engine compartment on these. These cars where originally primer with black fenders and hood cause they where glass . So under the hood, would they of been left in primer when Hurst put the Hemi in? Or did Chrysler paint under there black before shipping them out? Or did Hurst paint it black before the Hemi was dropped in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtx6970 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 As far as I know, All hemi A bodies were black underhood, Not 100% positive but I think Hurst painted them . Reason being Hurst had to modify the pass side shock tower to make the engine fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonC Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Well he did say all comments are welcome. From what I see of the pictures, he pretty much built a 1:1 replica of the LO23 Dart. With also saying "Like it came off the truck". So once reading that, one would expect to see a car that looks fully like one would in 68. It was very well done, till I seen the trunk lid and how it opened. So I just pointed it out. Maybe the guy never seen a Dart trunk open? And from others comments, I guess they haven't either. So I guess I just didn't expect to see a customized trunk lid on a otherwise period correct car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
