I consider fourth-gen Dodge Darts (’67-’76), like this 1970 example, to be unsung heroes. While I prefer the ’67-’69 version, there’s nothing wrong with a ’70 – they were lightweight, inexpensive powerhouse cars. Today’s find, a resident of Clarksville,… more»

Rebuilt 383: 1970 Plymouth Road Runner
This 1970 Plymouth Road Runner looks more like a Road Runover, it’s in shaky, but not surprising condition. Unfortunately, rust was the bane of this generation of ChryCo’s B-body and that malady has befallen this example. There was a… more»
