by Modernized Dodge Dart Heads to Auction
While the Dodge Charger and Challenger usually attract more attention, this Dart is a reminder that the smaller Dodge models also had significant potential. The car has received modern technologies that make it more powerful and comfortable than the original versions.
Technical Features
Under the hood of this Dart is a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 engine producing 485 horsepower, paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. The car also received an updated suspension, a Wilwood brake system, and electronic control. The wheel arches had to be modified for the 18×10 inch Budnik rear wheels.
This restomod combines classic design with modern technology, making it a unique option for American muscle car enthusiasts.
The car’s interior has also been updated: modern power seats, leather trim, a climate control system, and a premium audio system have been installed. However, the automatic gear selector looks somewhat outdated against the general premium execution.
The Dodge Dart has always been less popular than its larger “brothers,” but that’s precisely what makes it interesting for collectors. Its lightness and compactness combined with a powerful engine make this model attractive to those looking for something unusual.
