73 Dart Swinger Resto-mod
Hi FABO
So, here is my 1973 Dart Swinger.
I bought it off a local Craigslist ad. It had been sitting for 13 years, but the PO had it listed as a "running and driving" car. Well, it sorta ran when he poured gas down the carb, and it moved all of 50 feet before it stalled out and he could not get it started again. Fine, the car looked ok and the price wasn't bad, so I bought it. I rented a U-Haul trailer and dragged it home the next evening.
Once home, I started going through it. The radiator was toast, the carburetor needed to be rebuilt, and the brakes needed attention.
My garage is pretty decent, but there is a lot of other stuff in it, so I have to keep my mess constrained to one bay.
