1970 Dart Swinger (340 clone)

Great start HevD -
Keep those posts and pics coming. Not my 1st car, but my 1st performance car was a '69 340 Swinger that was less than 6 months old when I bought it used in very early '70 so I know what you mean. Kept the car and played with it for quite awhile and eventually got stupid and decided to turn it into a racecar (NHRA Super Street on a 10.90 index). Got even stupider later and sold the car instead of turning it back to the street.
Finally regained some smarts a little over a year ago and found a '69 Dart build that had been started in Oregon but the guy lost inspiration and sold the project to me. Came with a 380hp 360 crate motor, solid body, rebuilt 727, b-body 8-3/4, decent interior, NIB B&M shifter, NIB Autometer guages, new 3" exhaust (in the back seat), and a trunk full of misc. parts. Project is finally gaining some steam and I hope to have it on the street later this year.
Great luck with yours, enjoy, and have fun!!!
