The saga continues...
Adam called me last evening from North GA. He caught the tail end of a storm from here and was determined to be South of the latest storm/freezing line, plus with the I-40 closure in NC, he is looping through Atlanta, then up I-85 and going to hole up at his parents place in NC until the storm passes.

Here are pix of the Dart in Mike's parent's front yard when it was new.

Next up pix from 1970, that's Mike's Dad Earl in the second pic.

Also when it was in the March 1978 issue of Car Craft magazine.
That flamed hood was included in the sale and will make Great Wall art!

Brent asked that I include these pix from the one car garage where the Dart sat for forty years.

When the roof collapsed the flamed hood on edge prevented the rafters from falling on the car. Within four inches.

I'm quite sure that without the roof collapse the Dart would still be parked there as Mike has always firmly stated the he would never sell it.

Side note, that Suzuki snowmobile went to a local snowmobile collector. I could tell you stories...
