This is a 1963 Dodge Dart GT Convertible. This maybe the most complete 1963 GT convertible existing today. You can find junk 270s and Frankenstein GTs although a true complete 1963 GT convertible is extremely rare. This is a true California car please see the stack of California registrations, this includes the original 1963 California registration. I have the original vin number matching warranty book signed Christmas 1962 and picked up New Years day 1963. An additional 30+ years of California registrations, the vintage operators manual and Dealer promo hand out. I have owned the car for 6 years and have brought it back its original 1963 standards. It is original paint and it does have chips and scratches. All of stainless trim, mirrors, handles, badges belong to this car right down to the lighter. It has miraculously never been molested.
I have just completed a long block on a true 1963 block and have added hardened valves so will run great on unleaded. The engine was professionally rebuilt and installed and has less than 500 miles on it. It is the Famous 225 Slant Six the largest motor offered this year for the Dart. The 273 did not come into production until 1964 for the Dart. The receipts will be included. The interior and new top was completed by Rocket Restorations of Olympia. Check out their web site, they are a premiere MOPAR restoration shop. It has the original push button transmission. The exhaust is new from the manifold to the Flowmaster muffler all the way to the stainless tip. The points have been replaced with a Pertronix ignition kit. I will include a complete book that includes 50 years of documentation to the current day. This car has a true pedigree.
Still to go, it could use a new sending unit for the gas gauge although averages about 23 mpg. I have the book with every fill up over the last six years. The rag top is counter balanced so manually goes up and down easily by one person. The electric top has a new motor installed although new rams would be required if the next owner wanted to install.
This car is a true pleasure to drive and a fun dependable head turner.

2014 Challenger R/T Shaker, Mopar '14 Challenger bring back iconic hood
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Enamored of the Dodge Challenger but wish you could get one with a shaker hood? We've got good news, because Dodge and Mopar have teamed up to bring it back.
The 2014 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker packs the same 5.7-liter Hemi V8 as the standard Challenger R/T, but upgrades the business end with a through-the-hood exposed cold-air intake system. The retro hood scoop protrudes from the center of the hood in satin black (matching the decklid spoiler) to feed the Hemi and shakes with the engine just like the original from 1970. The Shaker model also comes with a Super Track Pak that adds a new steering rack, brake linings, shocks and 20-inch Goodyear Eagle F1 Super Car rubber. You can also shut off the stability management system completely in this car. A series of interior and exterior trim enhancements round out the look. The whole package adds $2,500 to the price of a Challenger R/T Classic for an all-in MSRP of $36,995.
In case that's not enough, Dodge is also offering a limited-edition Mopar Challenger that follows the 2010 Mopar Challenger, 2011 Mopar Charger, 2012 Mopar 300 and 2013 Mopar Dart. Limited to just 100 examples, the 2014 Mopar Challenger gets the same Shaker hood intake, unique graphics and wheels, an enhanced interior and a long list of optional extras from the Mopar parts catalog. Dodge isn't saying just yet how much the Mopar Challenger will cost, but you can bet it will command a considerable premium for the exclusivity alone.
Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'
Fri, 12 Jul 2013This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
