The wife's 63 Dodge Dart GT convert.
Three on the tree, 225 slant six, and a mighty one barrel carb! I'll see if I can find some pics of my Galaxie to post as well (63.5 fastback, 390). You know, when I bought the Dodge, I figured: "How hard can a Dodge Dart be to restore?" Answer: much harder than I imagined!

I dunno if it qualifies as cool, but my daily-driver is fast and reasonably comfortable. I've been really happy with it, but it's now over 10 years old and may get replaced this year if I decide what to get.

Do the vins from the window and the trunk and the front trunk all match? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Seems really odd to have all of those 75 things as it would cost some to convert to the less desired parts. Sounds interesting. |

These days I want an S4 Avant, now that would be cool. |

Well, at least it is registered. I doubt highly that it is a 73. Sounds like someone did a switcheroo on the vins of a 75.

I don't know about how cool, but we just replaced our '99 Passat with 240K for a 2010 Sportwagen TDI. Spent some extra $$$ on the big a$$ sunroof and loving the decision even during January in Indiana. The diesel is no drag racer, but makes a great DD.
