A 1969 Dodge Dart GTS 340 4 speed!If you are in the market for a GTS that stands head and shoulders above the rest you’d be hard pressed to find a better example than this one and it’s the bucket seat, console version everyone wants!Per Galen Govier white book Chrysler only built 1022 total 340 4 spd coupes in 1969. Total GTS coupe production was only 6285 and of that total only 3645 were 340 cars. How many of the 1022 4 spd cars that are left is anybody’s guess but the common belief is a 70% attrition rate which would leave about 30% (or 306 cars) left in the 340 4 spd combo.This is a nicely optioned example restored back faithfully to its original as sold condition per the fender tag.
