breathtaking gold metallic-one of the finest builds we've ever
showcased at The Throttlestop. Built by Platinum Custom Cars of
Manteno, Illinois, this Dart is a true masterpiece of performance

double adjustable coil-overs, rack and pinion steering, and a
narrowed Ford 9" rear end with 3.73 gears, all set in place by a
Reilly 4-link coil-over setup. Braking is handled by 14" Wilwood
6-piston disc brakes on all four corners, paired with a Power
E-Stop emergency brake system for unmatched stopping power.
Inside, the Dart boasts a completely custom interior by The
Carriage House in New Lenox, Illinois. Custom-covered Corbeau
seats, a bespoke Dakota Digital dash, and Vintage Air Conditioning
