Notable Features
Push-button TorqueFlite automatic (if equipped), wrap-around rear window, and 'DODGE' block lettering on the rear fascia.
Production Numbers
Approximately 193,000 Darts were produced in 1964 across all body styles; the 270 sedan was a volume leader.
Valuation
Estimated Market Value: $500 - $1,200 (Scrap or parts donor value)
Auction Estimate: $200 - $800 (Purely as a chassis or parts lot)
Maintenance Recommendations
Complete frame-off restoration required or, more realistically, use as a donor for trim and structural panels for a better-preserved example.
Fun Facts
The 1964 model was the last year for the famous push-button transmission controls on the dash. The 'Slant-6' engine was tilted at a 30-degree angle to allow for a lower hood line. This generation of Dart was actually a senior compact, larger than the previous Lancer it replaced.
