Well, It looks like white wins. I think it looks better as well. That was easy LOL. Still so much work to do! At least I get to look at it with the stripe...
It is my understanding and please correct me if I am wrong on this. I believe that the only 1969 Dart convertibles made were either Dart GT or Dart GTS...
Correct. In 1969 the only convertible Darts offered were GT and GTS. A total of 1,837 Dart GT convertibles were made and 417 GTS convertibles. I am the only...
I uploaded two pictures of the stripe under the folder GTSDave Progress Pics. There is still lots of buffing left to do on the car, the pictures make it look...
There were only GT and GTS convertibles starting in 1967. The last 270 convert was in 66. The six cylinder was available in the GT convertibles through 69. Jim...
Does anyone here have the code for a gold vinyl top for 68? I believe there was only one shade of gold for that year. I think I found someone who can outfit...
Hmmmm....looking on my little white Galen book, there are no codes for a GOLD top. Only silver, black, white, and GREEN. That is an "antique" dark green. Is...
Hey Guys Well I finally found a decent set of emblems for my car after many months of searching. They are still attached to the original door panel, the...
I have removed them before, and it isn't easy. They are "staked" onto the door panel, which means there are two posts that are pushed through the holes in the...
The code for 69-71 gold vinyl top is V1Y, and there is also a champagne (tan) vinyl top that is V1L. As said previously, no gold top in 68 although there is...
Like Jim said on removal and install. There is no paint on them. It just appears black from the shadows they cast. Scott ... Hey Guys Well I finally found a...
Quick question about my tail panel. I used lacquer thinner to strip the black paint off this evening. I figured I would fix a couple of the dings then polish...
Thanks for the info. I'll have to dig out my fender tag and the paperwork from Govier. I believe he decoded my car with a gold vinyl top. Thanks again ... ...
I had my door panels out today. My emblems have no paint and appear to be brushed stainless. Thanks to the other guys for the tip on how to get those off. ...
I tried my hand at posting photos. I posted a couple of GTS reference type photos. They look better in full size. I have some more I may post later. Joe...
All 1969 Bumble-Bee striped cars should have the side marker housing painted to match the stripe color. I used plain old WalMart white paint on my 69 Bee,...
I think the marker light housing looks better painted to match the stripe. But to say that "all" 69 bumble bee stripe cars should have the marker light housing...
Joe I agree totally with you! My car also was original when I purchased it, with rear side-marker housing painted to match the body color. So they "ALL" where...
GTS'ers I have a chance to buy real GT sport interior door emblems for $105, or should I buy the repro set for $75. Anyone use the Ebay guy for the repro's?...
I hear what your saying Gary & Joe. We know that there are a few cars that got the reflector housings painted body color instead of the stripe color,...
I've looked at the ones your talking about on e-bag Scott and I think they look pretty decent. If it was me I think I'd spend the $75 for the repops and save...
I believe Andy said all 69 striped cars had the bezel painted striped color...I'm guessing this would include the swinger as well...I haven't owned that many...
My car has the marker light housing body color. When I get to the stripe replacement in the restoration process I will paint the housing to match the stripe....
For as far as i could tell my markers lights were painted body color. and if you look at the 1969 brochure of the green gts it sure looks like the marker color...
Making some progress at the media blaster. Most of the removeable parts and the top side is done. Car needs to be flipped to continue now. He primed what...
Yes I have both of the 69 Dart brochures, not that you can really go by them as solid evidence for anything. Case in point, if you have the Dart brochure with...
What a vision of beauty. I am jealous. It must be great to get to this point. Hopefully my car will be looking about the same in Oct. Question did you remove...
