My first car was a 70 340 Dart Swinger . Darts have always been my favorite mopar model and this one is one of the finest examples I've seen . Super nice badass ride . Thanks Shawn - love it !

[@AutotopiaLA]

Really incredible build. Definitely a no expense spared approach but tastefully done in all respects

[@hockeymann88]

3:09 "You may have heard of the name" That is funny right there. Yea, I think it rings a bell. This car is a very sweet build.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Loved that part lol!! Boyd who? 😂😂 Great build and both father and son are really cool people

[@666Winterdemon666]

Theres nothing better than an american v8 engine. Sounds perfect.

Especially with the whine of the supercharger

As a mexican american I can tell you its my favorite part of being born here baby!!!!!! MERICA~!@#$%

[@gusalvarez4297]

V12 sound better

[@hagestad]

that's a bag of nails sound. Jap V8 usually sound better. Not to mention their v12 and r6. and lets not forget that some of merc v12 specially older ones sound like f1 cars when straight piped.

That is a sick build. It could have 5-600 HP and I'd still love it. The looks are immaculate.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Agreed. Having that 1000 hp makes it better but on all levels this build is exceptional

Dude arguably the cleanest Mopar you’ve had on your channel. I mean that’s basically in my opinion everybody’s wet dream. Bitchen ass car bruh

[@AutotopiaLA]

Definitely one of the finest builds we’ve ever shot. I wish everyone could’ve felt how soft the leather was and how it pointed straight when you got in it. Very impressive build

[@1982MCI]

@@AutotopiaLA this one will be extremely difficult and extremely expensive to out-do!! Good luck to the builder that feels up to the challenge to out build it, I hope you have some deep pockets! Lol 😂 Finding the builder isn’t the issue cause we’ve really got some phenomenal builders out there today but the budget is gonna be the issue. That’s the most beautiful engine bay and interior I’ve EVER seen on one of these and who ever designed the grill needs a raise and a bonus!! Well done gentlemen!! You have something to be extremely proud of here!

They nailed it on this build. At every look, sound and certainly the drive

[@mgbchuck6527]

What a nice Dart! Was at a all/Ferrari Show in Blackhawk, Ca. (with my MGBV8) this car showed up, parked just outside the show, drew as many people as anything inside the show. Did a walk around it, the video doesn't do it justice for how bad ass it is, great choice for your channel.

[@AutotopiaLA]

I wish we could’ve made it even longer. So many details and all done with taste and class

[@slackjaw703]

Joey & his dad drove down from northern Cali. Hell, if I owned that absolute beauty, I’d drive it down from the North Pole. Love the red on black! Love that it’s a rag top. Just completely in love. Yet another quality cat from a quality channel. Love ya bro! Keep it up! Take care.

[@danburch8880]

I had this car in black. 1st car. Mine wasn’t a gt convertible just a slant 6 hard top. Loved it.

sick ride. I'm not sure about the red halos in front. Red is on the back for me.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Since I’m a fan of red I love all the red accents even the halo’s. Regardless it’s a killer build

Yeah. those really don't need to be there. This this is unique and custom built. makes no sense to give it the generic hellcat logos.

[@jonmeyers523]

My first car was a red 67 Dart with a 225 slant 6 motor and automatic transmission. Your video brought back a lot of pleasant memories I sure wish I had that car today.

[@mikepoint4983]

What a incredible build and tastefully done . I just love the Darts . Thanks for sharing

[@ncsteeltoe]

One of my favorite body styles of all musclecars. This and the early Chevy II. Small, lightweight box car with a big engine.

[@arthursmith5409]

My most favorite Dodge, is this car! I'm a florida trucker, once out in california at a junk yard, a guy brought in one of these as I was going out, he would of sold it to me right there for $200. But I had no money to store and then transport it back to FL. It went to the crushers. Perfect car no drivetrain.

[@s7v7nfiv5]

Sickest dart I have ever seen in my life

[@billyrayvalentine7972]

I have loved the dodge dart since the early 1970s when they were running around brand new. This one is sick.

[@MrWoodMan23]

I would choose this Dart over a Hellcat any time. 👍

[@leehouston5436]

And over 1,000 lbs lighter

[@jethrox827]

Every car on the channel is like a piece of art

[@AutotopiaLA]

We try but this is one of the top builds we’ve shot to date. Everything is done with taste and done right

[@540chevhell9]

Gonna get it in the neck for saying this but the Californians seem to build some super slick cars a notch above most. Hot rodding seems almost like a religion there.

[@ronalbanesi1594]

Hands down that one bad ass dart sinister they did a good job God bless everyone have a good one

[@alanrlocklear]

Damn, badass build. Dont hate but I'd make several changes: #1: get rid of the red halos on the headlights #2: find a hardtop and build it on that body style

All good but personally the only thing I’d change is the name on the title to read Shawn Davis😂😂
