The black hood treatment is curious too as a black-out finish is usually applied in satin or flat black, not gloss as is the case here. So many of these vintage Darts have a hood scoop or an air induction setup of some kind but this one seems a bit outsized – and it doesn’t appear to actually function. The exterior condition is fabulous though the hood nostrils are a matter of taste I guess. Right out of the gate, this Dodge got my attention because it’s green! Yeah, I know, sounds silly, but green will catch my eye every time. This Dart is located in Stuart, Virginia and is available, here on eBay for a current bid of $7,000 with four bids tendered so far. No worries, everything can be “massaged” and that’s exactly what has happened with our subject car – stay tuned for more. The 1971 introduced Demon changed things up a bit leaving the Swinger, or the traditional Dart coupe such as this 1972 example, without the bite that it had just two years prior. My favorites are the ’68 and ’69 and some of that is due to their performance configuration. The clean simplicity of their lines, especially the pre-Federal bumper versions made from ’67 to ’72 presented a perfect balance for a budget compact, an everyday family driver, or, in 340 mode, a very stout performer. I have been eyeballin’ fourth-generation Dodge Darts for a while now.
