The world is a crazy, ****ed up place. We're going to be end end of ourselves and it'll be back to the dark ages again. Only the strong will survive. With technology on the rise, we're becoming out of touch with our own human nature and instincts. It's sad really.

My wife works at a preschool and she said a lot of parents picked their kids up early. Our 2 year old son goes there and when she found out about it, she brought him to her room.

I didn't know Dodge brought back the Dart. When did this happen? Hah hah, that's cool. I like all the retro models being re-envisioned.

What's the Dart considered anyways? It wasn't a muscle car per se or was it?

Hey do you think Ford will ever bring back the Pinto? Hah hah hah! "Introducing the all new 2014 Ford Pinto..."

Just saying.

Anyways. Your Neon looks cool, DarthRoush... Hope mine gets there someday. It's a 2005 SXT.

Happy Holidays...

Happened after Fiat bought 'em. Ford brought back the Fiesta, though, the Fiesta isn't the Dart's competitor.
Thank you as well

The Dart is competing with the Focus, Civic, Cruze... Etc.

The Dart was a very small car even for the 60s and the 70s.

The late 60s and early 70s is about as "muscle" as they got, too.

That's clearcoat failure. The only fix is a repaint.

I kinda figured as much. Whats strange is it starts out like this

then goes to shizzle 2 years later. Gonna try the do it yourself wrap method since I have all the tools.

Speakin of Fiesta's, there seems to be a lot brought back to life from junk yards over the last few years, the 3 banger models I see one every few days on the hwy's here
