Re: 67 dodge & 63 dart wagon

[Bob <64ragtop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Eric, Thanks for the report.  I hate to hear about any early A bodies going to the crusher,  but rust  -  well, Niel Young said it best: "Rust Never Sleeps".   The cowl area is really hard to get at to repair and if the old rust wasn't properly treated it has continued on its merry way.   The silicone tells me that wasn't done.  DANGER, Will Robinson!!!  Sadly, I really think it's a parts car.  If you were to get the car for less than 2 grand, you could part it out.  Early A parts, and especially WAGON parts are pretty hard to find.  I've seen some posts from early A wagon folks in the great Northwest in the past.  The tailgate parts and the glass from the back area have been wanted.  A possibility that occurred to me is these folks:

They're a lot closer to you than I am!

Might be worth a phone call ... Or not??

Report on the 63 dart wagon...

I just left the car its not bad but its not great which I guess is OK. the car has the sheet metal welded into the floors.  it had a really bad old repair of rust on the cowl and then the whole thing with silicone so it won't leak around the windshield. I can't do rust repairs.  also the rear quarter is rusted out I'm assuming from condensation from the gas tank.  

He said he would take a lot less for the car.  but I don't do rust so that's that.  its not a bad car it looks straight its have one door replaced but its 50 years old so what do you expect.  if I could do the cowl to fix the rust and that rear quarter panel it would be a fine car.  He will probably take 2000 maybe even a little less.  He really wants the car to go to a mopar person.  He doesn't want it to fall apart.  I guess I'm the only one to come look at it in 3 weeks.

I didn't investigate very much with the '67, but it looked like a 383.  It ran too, but I didn't hear it, the guys just told me.

NADA is quoting $2,700 for the 1963 so the guy is in OBO range.

The 1967 I don't know.... Not many folks even remember that model. My uncle had one just like that; he bought it new. Is it a big block Mopar?
