I appreciate the video. The term "musclecar" ended with the end of 1971. After that? An economy car with a classic body style, or a "Sport", look.

I love the 70s darts I have a 65 valiant signet only made in Canada, which is a dodge dart GT in the states pay 600 bucks for it. Gonna try to get it running this winter a friend of mine buys one classic car a week for under 1500 bucks and flips it for 1500 profit minimum 3 to 4 days later as there’s a lot of good buys out therein back alleys and yards

In 1960, the Dart was not a mid size car. It was full sized. All Dodges were full sized in 1960. In 1961 they came out with the Lancer, which was a compact car. In 1962, they made smaller Dodges and Plymouths and could be considered mid size - but it was determined to me a marketing error and they restyled again in 1963. If you think $6500 for a 1972 - 76 Dart is cheap, I feel sorry for you. They used to be MUCH cheaper. You could get them for $1000 - $2500 for really decent cars that were all original. e.g. 3:48 - someone replaced the seats in this car, and someone tried to paint over the front and rear bumpers and its flaking off - that's all wrong. I wouldn't pay $6500 for that. At least the one at 3:38 looks like an original car with the original interior. 3:57 - you're going to have to do a lot of work to straighten all that out. I'm not saying they are worthless junk, I am saying that you're spending a lot more today for Darts that need a lot of work than you did 10 or 15 years ago for original cars that didn't need much work at all. Then you show cars for $9000, $13,000, and $15,000 - these are the cars you used to be able to get for $1000 - $2500, and it wasn't all that long ago either.

Seeing Clones "Hemi" Darts.. I live in these engine bays.. always a wow moment seeing the 426.. just setting there..

The term "Muscle Car" gets seriously overused when looking back at most cars of the seventies. The Dodge Dart (and Demon) and it's Plymouth Valiant (and Duster) counterparts were from the beginning not a muscle car. There were high performance versions with very capable V8 engines that qualify as muscle cars, not all of that muscle was a big block V8. The 340 4bbl was an amazing small block and when put in these, as well as Barracuda and Challengers, were muscle cars. Many of the Darts that are reasonably priced will be equipped with the venerable Leaning Tower of Power, aka Slant Six.

The "New" Dart was just a re-skinned FIAT. I got a '69 Swinger out of Central, West Texas in '23- it had been parked in the guy's back 40 for decades...good thing? Never been whacked, very solid, original AC & 340 car.The original owner plopped a '68 Road Runner 383 powertrain in it, complete with manifolds. Bad? Vinyl floor cover & bad wiper pivot seals colluded in destroying the front footwells...so perfect for a restomod,. US Car Tool Level II chassis stiffening? Check. Mini tub? Check. Slightly narrowed rear axle? Check. All- new floors? Check. Bergman Auto Craft steering & suspension pieces? Check. Stroker 400 & a 5-speed conversion? Check. Corbeau buckets & rear seat upholstered to match (even rear headrests)? Check. Updated underhood AC set up & interior pieces factory? Check. 4-wheel, big discs? Check. Retrofit thumbwheel radio that has BlueTooth, USB port, 4-speaker & amplifier outputs? Check. Freedom to use touches that look stock but are actually mild custom touches? Check Cheap? No. Not crazy $$$, but certainly not cheap
