Project Bulls Eye Sold

When we started this project our goal was to demonstrate that it doesn’t take trunk full of money to have fun with a collector car. Project Bulls Eye our 1963 Dodge Dart GT with slant 6 and push button automatic has been sold for under $2,000. Our intent was to dress the car out a little and get it running. That we did with less than $50 in expenses and sold it to another car guy who is planning to take it to the next level as a fun little run around town classic car. He said that first off he wants to redo the interior and then put a set of tires on it. The final step will be to fix some of the minor rust holes and then put a coat of paint on it.

This is a great example of hunting for a car that is off the radar for most collectors yet is fun to drive, looks good and will get attention at any cruise-in. In addition, it is economical to drive.

I hope the new owner will have as much fun working on this little girl as we did. Now it is off in search of another project car to do the same thing with.

If you have a good example of an inexpensive collector car build send it along and we will share it with our readers. Send to: rfleener@comcast.net.
