Picked up another car!

Spotted a 71 swinger under a carport while at work and had to go ask the guy if he would sell it. He bought it a year ago and lost interest so he said he'd sell it to me. He said 1200 bucks and I shook his hand. /6 car all original I'm excited to tune it up and use it as my daily driver. Maybe do a v8 swap later. It's a little rough but it adds character. He threw in a set of small block hooked headers as well!

is it a dart "special"? many years ago, I had arranged to buy a super clean dart special, which looked very much like that, in Lake Forest Park. Whoever the driver was must have been super short, because it had 4x4 wood blocks on the pedals! Anyway, when I came back the next day to pay for the car and pick it up, it was gone. I can't remember why she sold it to someone else, this was about 35-40 yrs ago.
