Geo's 1969 Swinger 340 thread

As Tom explained it, "this was my family car, so I never abused it and kept good care of it." He later separated from the AF but stayed in the area. Working at Intel here, a co-worked in an early 70s big block Camaro constantly bugged him to race - he really didn't want to, but.... after much grief, one day the Camaro and the Dart found each other on the freeway. Tom got next to the guy and downshifted that 340 and the green machine with its 3:23 gear buried that Camaro. Dude never bugged Tom to race again. A few clutches, one water pump and typical tune up parts was all the car ever needed. Sometime in the late 80s though, it stopped running. His father in law, a wrench by profession was no longer able to help maintain the car and it sat in his driveway for many years.
