I have a 63 Dart 2 door post, and for a long time I never saw another one like it, but eventually i saw a few. Anyway, about a week ago, I saw a 63 Dart GT convertable at my work. It was in pretty bad shape, but it was kind of neat to see another one close up. And then today, i saw a 64 Dart 170 at my work. It was also pretty messed up. but I am amazed that I saw two within a week of each other, in the same place.

It is getting kind of rare to see them these days. I am sure there are more of them out on the West Coast, but here in the East, you don;t see them much any more.

I love driving old cars but it comes with a price... I can't hide!
My friends say: "hey, I saw you driving here, or there or... how come you did not wave at me as you sped by..."

A bigger concern, I drive-up, park, get out of the car and some stranger says: "Oh... you're the one that drives that car...."
Like, what's that suppost to mean?? :?
Hey, If you don't like seeing an old car on your tail, just pull to the right and it will be gone soon enough. :wink:

I know the feeling. Of course the usual "slant six, eh? bullet proof motors... I had one... tried to kill it and couldn't..." Not that I don't love to talk it up, but I've noticed I've had the same conversation with the same strangers before.

Since I've had my 63 Dart, I think I have probably seen 5 or 6 others (63-64) in person.
