That car was way ahead of its time in 56. ;)

That's a 70 or 71 Dart.

I bet there is a 70-71 Dart that looks a lot like a '56 300.

Good call it looks like a '70 http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?tracktype=usedcc&csDlId=&csDgId=&listingId=98707182&listingRecNum=8&criteria=sf1Dir%3DDESC%26mkId%3D20012%26stkTyp%3DU%26mdId%3D20991%26rd%3D100000%26crSrtFlds%3DstkTypId-feedSegId-mkId-mdId-yrId%26zc%3D43140%26rn%3D0%26PMmt%3D1-1-0%26stkTypId%3D28881%26sf2Dir%3DASC%26sf1Nm%3Dprice%26yrId%3D20184%26yrId%3D20128%26yrId%3D20182%26yrId%3D20126%26yrId%3D20125%26yrId%3D20180%26yrId%3D20124%26yrId%3D20122%26sf2Nm%3Dmiles%26isDealerGrouping%3Dfalse%26rpp%3D50%26feedSegId%3D28705&aff=gogsema&listType=1

You been sniffing some fumes.....?

You guys are tough

Here's a 1960 Dart....any similiarlities. It was an instant hit and very popular. They outsold Polara's in 1960.

 

[polara71]

Oh, that one is sweet

 

[1978 NYB]

I like it alot too. I'm not 100% sure it's a factory color. It looks like A1 Raw Sienna on the paint chart.

Looks amateurish with the radiator support not painted correctly. Hate that.

Dunrite:

 

[polara71]

Did they black them out then?


I like it as is

 

[commando1]

Could be another one of those "it depended on the plant" thing.

 

[polara71]

But did they do it back then? When did that practice start

 

[1978 NYB]

Look at the Mopar paint options in 1960............just amazing colors.

[polara71]

Looks like a crayola box

 

[1978 NYB]

I thought it was amazing to order a car 50 plus years ago pretty much any way you wanted it. Sure was a lot more options than available today.

 

[polara71]

Now you get three packages and thats it

 

[1978 NYB]

Most car dealers want you to buy what they have sitting on their lot. If they are desperate for a sale they might hunt around the region for a specific car for you.

 

[polara71]

True, but options are limited to packages so finding one is easy
