I figure I'll let the cat out of the bag... this thing should be here within a week...

1972 Dodge Colt. This baby is as original as your going to find one. It still has a set of bias ply tires on it! Which need to be swapped before I drive it... Either way, I plan to eventually upgrade the wheels and do some little things. Other than that, its purely for cruise ins and car shows. It's got some dents and dings here and there, but I'll going to see what can be fixed without paint.

Nice find, I like it! So are you going to go with a Hemi or a 340?

Neither. There are no plans on a swap at this point, and if i ever make any, it probably would be an na mitsu 4 banger with individual carbs or TB's. At this point plans are to just enjoy it and hit the car shows.

If you get any action in that thing you are my new role model. :lol:

J/K Nate, I love the car man. It should look right at home along with the rest of your clean ass Mitsu's.

I saw you were looking at getting one of this body style (this one in particular) and I'm glad the deal finally went through! At first I wondered why you got rid of your white one, but I realized when I saw your WTB ad cause I kinda went through the same thing with my yellow '76. I hope to get one like this in a few years when I finish my new Mirage project.

Long story short, when I was trying to sell the 79, I mentioned wanting a 71 to 73. An old colt owner (who ended up working he deal for me) posted the craigslist link. After months of saving and emails to the owner, it should be here tomorrow!

So when does the RWD 4G63 action go in?

Doubt you'd want to do that with a car so clean and original, but it sounds like fun.

I'm a member there already. I can't see cutting this one up... maybe a slight molestation, but nothing I can't easily reverse!
