Re: 1968 Dodge Darts (Factory SS/EA 440's)
Kyle,
If the car is 'truly' Charlie Allen's Saddleback Dodge car,,,,,,,,
Me personally,,,,,,, I would restore it back to the way Charlie raced it.
But, I would go with a set of 'TTI' or 'Hooker' under-chassis headers, but with the full exhaust and 'chrome tip' extensions.
Clean up the fenderwells,,,,and make it look like it left the factory as
a normal A-Body Big Block.
Remember, this was a 'factory' massaged' 440 Drag Race Car, and
'not' a fully blown all out drag car.
If it is restored 'just like the 1968 photo', I would put a value of $70,000+
on the Dart GTS, possibly more.
The more documentation you get, the higher the value.
