Here's we found a coolest race car based on a classic Dodge, it's a second generation of the Dodge Dart 440 released in 1962 has been custom rebuilt and upgraded seem indeed to competitions. Only one year the second generation was made, yes only in 1962 which on that time was offered in two levels the Dart 330, 440 and sold in Canada as the Polara 500.

While no has beauty look as a collectible car, but he get the power as a fighter as is look now. I think he came with a great character also would be great to considered. The photos as confirm, the body frame looks so perfect, no dent and no rust issue, come with patina look. The engine seems has ready to competitions, as can be seen from the fuel system and motorsport tyres usage, it's an unfinished racing car still need some work for safety and more agility, especially at interior side it still complete as the family car not as a race car. Overall it could be a seriously competitive car on the track or just be coolest classic Dodge as is, depending on where to go you want to carry it.
