Help with 1970 Dart restoration please.

No 340 Dart GTs in 1970. All 1970-71 GTs were made from a 1970 Dart Custom 2 door (LH - high level trim). These are all, to my knowledge, bucket seat/console cars whether standard or automatic. On the fender tag it is the A65 option. Because of that, about 50% of the ones that I come across have had a 340 or 360 installed - what would you have done with a 2 door hardtop, bucket seat /console Dart in 1980 when the 318 wore out? 1970 Swinger 340s are LM (medium trim cars) to start, where the rest of the Swingers are LL (low trim) cars. The car in my avatar is a 1970 Dart Custom that I put a 340 in in 1978. It was way easy to go from 318 to 340! The most obvious give away on the out side are the Dart GT badges on the quarters where yours says Dart Swinger. Just like one of the give aways to a real Swinger 340 is the Dart Swinger badge on the trunk lid (ALL the rest of the Darts had Dodge script like is on the hood)
