Wow.. I literally got chills and teared up when I saw this car. My Dad loved this car, unfortunately he passed away last year, but I still have the magazine this car was featured in on October 5th 2016. Jeff, you and your friend did an amazing job putting it back together, if I ever get to meet you have to Autograph it for me.
Apparently this car was built in Norfolk here near where i live. It would be cool if you could do a video on the history maybe some info on the previous owner.
I smiled the whole video. Happy for Jeff. Can’t wait to see him lay down a 4 second pass. Wow I’ve raced for 30 years and have never gone 4’s. Congratulations
Don’t go changing your Dart! You are quite an inspiration to a lot of us who enjoy a build exactly like you have! Your father’s Dart is an exceptional car but I wouldn’t change a thing about it!
Oh my god that thing is mean AF! Don’t ever let that vehicle go, it’s a one of a kind street monster. Such a boss ride it’s crazy, it has a one of a kind home now too.
Oh Snap!!! Speed is against the law , but there is no law against ACCELERATION!! THATS THE DRUG !!! Also, Jeffs smile and excitement had me in chills !! Hot roda and race cars make us old men feel like little boys again. This is good stuff !! G2G , SRC and OMG TTF...!! THANKS
When I first saw this car in RPM magazine I was very impressed and also very happy to read that a dart actually ran a 4... Hell yeah Jeff, congratulations!!
Dang, thats' a nice hotrod. I hope you make a lot of content with it before you sell it. Personally, I hope Billy or Tommy ends up buying it or best case you just keep it. You deserve a badass race car. I was hoping Billy would stick to his plan of putting an aluminum big block with a procharger in the Camaro. Maybe this will make him change his mind. So glad this channel is picking up steam. One of my favorites.
I'm ford to the core but that thing fired up and well it made my sticker peck out lmao but seriously GREAT STUFF right there. Tommy you couldn't have picked a better family to go with your SRC family for in laws. You have great family on both sides. Good stuff Jeff-fafafa, can't wait to see it on smalls with Jeff driving lmbo great stuff
I’ve known of this car for years. My dad builds old mopars. We’ve been to the nationals at trails every year for the last 25 years lol I’m the guy with the turbo Honda you raced with the dart at combs last year 🤷😂
Allison please leave the trim silver/chrome or sell/trade that nice trim to somebody that will be proud to have it. Nice trim is so freaking hard to find that somebody hasnt already painted, scuffed or scratched up. It would be badass for you and Tommy to have matching Darts too though lol
That's a badass looking Dart. Sounds pretty good too. Looks like it needs a little carb work for driveability but I'm sure that will be figured out by the next video we see it in.
Jeff Thank you for bringing the Dart Vader back to life it looks awesome I grew up with him n we race together all the time watch that car go thru many different builds till the it become the Vader Thank you for giving some of the history on car and it is one badass ride n fast enjoy it
Allison needs to start now with the sad puppy dog eyes saying but Daddy I really really want that car 😂😂😂😂😂 yall don’t let that car get out the family is still beautiful and badass
Oooooooohhhh man! I knew Ron personally and he followed one of my Dart builds years ago which motivated his Dart Vader build. He was in my town for work or visiting family, and he came over to my house for a few hours to hang out. Great dude.....we lost touch, and I am so bummed to hear of his passing.
Please I would like to hear more about Ron. People are starting to see this car and I owe it to him to learn all about him. he sounds like a great guy and i wish I could've met him
Jeff, very humble comment. You are all great people. Happy to see you care for the car and want to learn more of its builder. It’s really great to see you more involved with this channel. Best of luck with the car!
Thank you both. Cars like that are more than chunks of metal. This car has a soul, an attitude and a great story behind it. It’s a very strange series of coincidences and connections that led to it to my door. Ron will ride forever in Dart Vader.
@@jeffkovalik7395 First off, congrats on such a beautiful car! But if you don't run that car in the low 4's, this summer Ron will be rolling in his grave ;) make him proud!!
I’m hoping they keep it! It would be definitely sad if it got sold off. The whole family deserves it ❤. Allison’s face while sitting in it is priceless. I’d love to see her work her way up to wheeling that badass car down the track!!
One thing's for sure,, Allison's Dart is in it's early stages of construction. Time and CASH,, LOTS of BOTH can get you a Dart like the Dart Vader. You go girl,, you're doing fine!
@@tylerwhite4743 It is true and I'm guessing you don't have a fast car or go to the track. Hell just watch street outlaws and you'll see the Procharger issues. Turbos are on oem vehicles since they are reliable, you ever see a factory Procharger car? 🤣
@mrnastytime420 Procharger is the brand name of a supercharger genius, and if you bothered watching NPK last year the supercharged cars were a lot more successful than the tubo cars
Jeff I swear if you start taking it apart to restore it to stock I'm gonna drive there and shake my finger at you...and from where I'm at its a long long drive for me!
11:02 when he showed Allison how to turn it on, after it lit…the smiles on both their faces tells it allllll. Car goes nowhere without Allison in it next. Rights of progression.
When I first saw it back out I thought it was Allisons dart with some new changes. If Jeff goes on vacation Tommy, I know where you can get a new engine for Allisons car. All kidding aside, I can wait to see Jeff take a pass in it.
I believe there is two super stock hemi cars for sale in Kansas with a stock 440 6pack challenger. Two of the cars where nhra record setting cars back in the day.
Jeff just flexed on everyone hard
Lol yep your move billy❤
FACTS !!!! LMFAO
@@greg4876 Billy has 3 vehicles that run 4's and is building one that should easily run 4.30's
@@richardhintersehr9014Facts!☝🏻
Time will tell about Billy's cars e.t's and longevity.
Wow.. I literally got chills and teared up when I saw this car.

It is sick!!!
Really hope they see this comment and hopefully one day you can come see the car before it's sold.
Allison should race that car you know she would do good
Sell Allison's Dart and keep this one its literly the Dart she wants Jeff! Turn it down until she learns to drive it in all its glory 🤘💪
@@ramberto7785 Man after my own ❤ great idea!
Jeff just put the "MO" in MOPAR.......Yup🤣🤣🤣
I knew it was only a matter of time before Jeff bought something with even more power… such a badass car!!!
There is no way in hell after one full pass in that car that he will get rid of it.
YUUUUPPP
Might be a investment with more then one person but def should keep it
Absolutely not, once that thing is lined put it's going to be a money maker. I won't be surprised if he changes it from dart Vader to retirement plan.
Agreed 💯❤️
100 bucks jeffafa ain't running no 4
Apparently this car was built in Norfolk here near where i live. It would be cool if you could do a video on the history maybe some info on the previous owner.
We will. And we will pay tribute to Ron. He deserves it. RIP.
"Seems like you're always putting gas in this and we haven't done anything" LMAO my favorite statement right there
I smiled the whole video. Happy for Jeff. Can’t wait to see him lay down a 4 second pass. Wow I’ve raced for 30 years and have never gone 4’s. Congratulations
Looked like a damn 1320 thumbnail!!! Jefferson bes keep this thing around.
I never ever thought I would say I'm a Mopar fan but this channel is changing everything !!!
Jeff is getting serious
It's clearly an investment piece. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't understand Jeff.
It's clearly an investment piece. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't understand Jeff.
I don't really care for Mopars, but that car is wicked! Hell yeah Jeff
This is no doubt one of the best videos from gen 2 Jeff looks so happy in the car I think he should definitely keep it. !!
Beautiful looking ride sounds really bad ass. I saw the look on Billy face he wants to buy it.Great job Jeff.

That's gonna cost Billy, a s-10, a 55 chevy,and a shit losd of cash beautiful, ride❤

wow! I know this car it belonged to a friend who passed away. car ran well very nice ride. I think u got a good deal
What a great video Tommy! Wow wow wow .. ❤
Tommy.... please get this car!!! You and Allison with the badass Darts!!!!
Wicked cool car
About time a wedge needs to put it on all those chevys and ford's, looks like Billy might go to the dark side. P.s. love the shirt jeff.. good job.
Wow badass vader I remember this car way to go Jeffrey❤💪🏼🔥 y'all put a 60 in hers Dana 60s are sexiest in the dart
That Dart is so Kool. Thanks for sharing 😊.
Amazing car!!!! Looking forward to seeing it make some hits.

Jeff you can't sell that car.
That car is nothing but BAD ASS! That car has to stay in your family now.
Tommy with the. " we put crack in his cheerios " 😂😂😆😆

It took you guys long enough but I’m so glad your pumping more videos out!
I wouldn't ever get rid of that! Plus there's a ton of content you could make with it.
Tommy & Allison, do not let Jeff ever sell that car! Daaamn son!
Jeff looked like the kid that just got the candy store for free…
That Dart is Redicklus!! Damnnn Jeffafafa!!
Move over Nova there's a new boss in town and it's called, MOPAR!
I had a swinger . 318 cid . Your engine will need help holding the car together
MAN I WANTED A JOHN FORCE BURN OUT ..LOL
Bought it on my birthday. BadAss Car man.
Jefffafa look at the smile on your baby girls face! She needs a spare Dart sir.
I want to see that baby run 🤩
Time for Allison to drive it
Tommy gonna have to teach Jeff how to drive it.
That's a badass looking Dart. Sounds pretty good too. Looks like it needs a little carb work for driveability but I'm sure that will be figured out by the next video we see it in.
That thing is sick! Gonna be sad too see it go!
Shop manager: seems like we’re always putting gas in this an we haven’t done anything!
Jeff fa fa: …….. 0_0
All that hype and not even a smoke show? Well it's a pretty cool for a DODGE LOL
can't wait to see it at the track.
Nice!! Love Billy's reaction, don't see him laugh and smile like that too often.
Tommy, Allison do NOT let this car get away from you. I want to see y'all running both DARTS.
Yeah they need to keep this in the stable.
@14:30,, note the smile on Jeffry's face,, HE'S HOOKED BIG TIME!!! 🙂
Right, once he takes the car to the track and let's go of the button he's going to keep that car.
I love it. Jeff is always so stock and by the book. Glad to see him bust out a little!
Wow ..I've been shocked/ by stuff on the channels before but this is next level..never seen it coming..congratulations...well deserved
Jeff!! Don’t ever get rid of that car!! Keep it forever!! It landed in your hands for a reason!! KEEP IT!!!
Jeff looks like he was made for that car!! Such a beautiful build!
Jeff’s shirt was for @Bill

I love to see the dynamics change as time goes on. Your a great group of people. Thanks for sharing.
Wyatt's grin was spot on... Priceless moment. And yes Miss Vickie the familys didnt fall far from the tree... Good Stuff needed for my monday. WoW!!!
Need to keep this one if possible. Baddass car! Dream car material right there!

Jeff is gangster af
Ikr I’ve really come to like him
I remember seeing the Magazine an all car was an still is bad 🎉❤ azz one of my will say see ya pure monster 👻
Now Allison can run that 600 shot, she has a backup car 😂
She works hard enough I think she deserves it !!! Pass it down daddyooooh lol her face lit up and so many ideas Why not she would totally enjoy it
A 600 shot would blow that 340 apart it's not close to being built for that much nitrous
Dart Vader is so cool
I’m hoping they keep it! It would be definitely sad if it got sold off. The whole family deserves it ❤. Allison’s face while sitting in it is priceless. I’d love to see her work her way up to wheeling that badass car down the track!!
Wow what a insane build!!!! The engine alone cost a insane amount to build!!! Thats got to be the nicest true mopar drag car !!!!
there are plenty of wonderful mopar drag cars all over the country i doubt this is the nicest but she is a sweet little thang
Nothing says true Mopar drag car like a TH400 and a 9" rearend 😂
You know Billy's wheels are turning ... that Dart is baaaaaaadasssssssss!
Dammit jeff you are turning this die hard chevy super stock racer into a mopar fan. That's a cool ass car.
Billy’s laugh @ 1:51 when the Dart comes out is priceless!
Evil villain vibes😂😂
cuz he didnt want anybody hear him pooping his pants, the new boss in town!
One thing's for sure,, Allison's Dart is in it's early stages of construction. Time and CASH,, LOTS of BOTH can get you a Dart like the Dart Vader. You go girl,, you're doing fine!
Congratulations Jeff...that's an iconic car in the mopar world! I always wondered what happened to it since it hasn't been seen in long time.
Bill:
"Whatya do?"
Jeffahfah:
"I DON'T KNOW.." 🤷♂️
Probably making Billy rethink the whole pro charger deal 😂, sweet ride!
I was thinking the same thing and by the look on Billy's face while sitting in the car he was thinking the same!
Unreliable, more expensive and harder to swap parts between vehicles. Billy made the right choice with turbos over a procharger.
@@mrnastytime420

That's a happy man...I'm ready to see him let go of the button...
Coolest Gen 2 Garage video to date! LOVE THAT CAR!!
I'm sold Jeff is in the Cia lol
Never seen billy laugh like that, he seemed so happy for Jeff and Tiffany! Thing sounds nasty as hell!
I’ll be Damn Ron Bookman’s beautiful old car. I was like I’ve seen that car that car used to run at Richmond Dragway and VMP.
Jeff keep that car 1 bad unit!
At least let T2G pilot that monster till miss Allison is ready for it
The family fleet is going by leaps and bounds!😂😂😂😂
Jeff I swear if you start taking it apart to restore it to stock I'm gonna drive there and shake my finger at you...and from where I'm at its a long long drive for me!
Haha. Noooooo
Jeff you just cannot get rid of this car! Its up to you to continue its story! We want to see lots more of this car, its already got Billy thinking!!
Don't kid yourself Jeffafafa!!!! Your hooked like a fish!!!! You love the car and secretly want to keep it!! The smile gave you away!!!!
Wow,what an awesome video, the smiles and comments from both families made my day...badass hotrod!
11:02 when he showed Allison how to turn it on, after it lit…the smiles on both their faces tells it allllll. Car goes nowhere without Allison in it next. Rights of progression.

Who else wants to see Jeff start a RUclips channel??
I do
Wow awesome car ...keep living the dream ✨️
Best use of the term "what is going on?" I have ever seen, hands down.
Awesome!! Don’t put a cowl on your dart the scoop is iconic
I believe there is two super stock hemi cars for sale in Kansas with a stock 440 6pack challenger. Two of the cars where nhra record setting cars back in the day.
