Were any of the 1968 LO23 Hemi Darts post cars?

I just got a dart in a package deal and it is really clean. I always wanted to do a Hemi Dart tribute car. So were any of them post cars. I kinda doubt it but didn't know for sure.

LO23 is the answer to your question. 23 is for hardtop. Cool car. Would love to see more pictures and some details.

My first love is the 68/69 Darts, and a clean 2 door post like this is a sweet find! I say build it as a HEMI post tribute car. Even though none were made.
 
I could make a cool ride, be the 1st, piss off the rest...LOL :wave:

the orange one with the wheels hangin' in the air, isn't a LO23....
good example of a post car tribute

it's a regular Dart from a guy over on FBBO, screen named Womanator
I'm not sure what OE drivetrain it had, BUT
it does have a pretty wicked pump gas 426ci+ Hemi installed in it thou....

I just rebuilt the carb on the dart, it purrs like a kitten now. The 273 sounds great! The lights, wipers, fan, gauges all work! And the paint is really good. I wish my Road Runner was at this point.
 
Hey Smarty Pants! I never claimed that it was mine...

Just wait until you mention anything about Karmann Ghias... :basketcase:
 
the only claim I have to the little German Go Cart is:
my name is one the title
I do the maintenance
and when anything breaks, whether I am within 3000 miles of it or not it's MY fault.
 
and I've gone from Green Jeans to Smarty Pants....finally a promotion!

Sounds like we have the exact same deal... :basketcase:
