    1970 Swinger cigarette lighter location

    All 1970 Dart and Duster 340 cars came with the bezel mounted lighter, however, I don't think any came with an extra lighter mounted in the ashtray. It's possible a dealer or a PO installed one since there is a hole for one. If a second lighter was an option there would probably be a second plug...

    MP3?

    That's an aux jack. Looks like someone did a nice job wiring it. If your radio works and its wired correctly you should be able to plug an MP3 player, CD player etc., into it.

    Low oil pressure at stop light.

    You didn't mention what type of gauge you have. If it's the factory electric gauge like the one I have on my rallye dash then you could have a bad oil pressure sending unit that's located near the distributor. I had a new Standard PS59 sending unit and the needle on the gauge would go to the...

    ignition and turn signal switches??

    Do your switches still work? Try cleaning and lubricating them before you replace them. They may be in good shape.

    Is this a bumper for a 1972 Scamp? If so I need some bracket to mount it.

    1972 was the first year for the hook type jacks and slotted bumpers. Your bumper has slots so I would say yes it's for your car. Your rear bumper should have slots also and your bumper should be the hook type. If you still have the jack instructions on your trunk lid it should look like this...

    Duster windshield removal/replacement

    I had to remove the trim and seal the windshield myself because the local glass installers I talked to didn't want to risk scratching the paint. It's a very messy job but well worth it. You have to keep checking for leaks and keep filling the openings until the leaks stopped. One installer told...
