I agree it does sound fishy. I am waiting to hear back from the guy to ask all of these questions. but then again, you never know if you don't check either.

Need some advice from you guys out there. I just came across this ad and wondering if it is worth jumping on and getting. Here is what is being offered at a price of 200.00. I need a motor but I don't want to screw myself either. 318 out of a 71 dart, has a crane cams energizer, Duration...

Well, it has been forever since I posted. I got a little overwhelmed for a while and had gotten frustrated. I pulled the motor and tranny pulled out the interior. I cut out the floor pan sections (new ones get here today), swapped the front ends from my donor, cleaned up the engine bay and...

Pulled the wiring harness from 1974 dodge dart behind dash wiring harness from my donor car. It is complete. I only cut the wires to the ground wire and dimmer switch. Both were cut close to the connection. It appears to be in good shape. Will sale or trade for a set of black door panels for my...

I was looking at purchasing the Por-15 trunk and floor pan kit. Do you have to remove the paint from the pans and trunk before applying the por-15? It states that everything is in the kit that you need but it doesn't list the paint stripper. Any advice would be appreciated.

low kota, where did you purchase your floor pan sections at? I was looking at some from c2fabrication. they have 2 different ones to choose from and there is a difference in price 78 vs. 59.

I think I am going to call Peedins and see if they have floorpan sections for my 74 swinger. once i get those in I will be ready for blasting and paint and then finally assembly!!

the yard was so so. I found a few of the things that I was looking for today. I am adding a link to the photo album that he sent me. I can tell you that there were a lot of valiants out there...

I only live about 20 miles from smithfield. I am over in Angier. Thanks for the info. I will have to check them out.

I happened on an add today on Craigslist. The gentleman whose name is Michael stated that he has over 100 MOPAR's A-bodies, B-bodies, and E-bodies from the early 60's into the 70's. I called him and will be going down in the morning. He is located near Fayetteville, NC. He sent me an email with...

What are the Farmington Dates?

I have a question for you guys. My 74 swinger is a 318(needs a rebuild bad) with a 904 transmission(needs rebuilt as well)and a 8.25 rear end. The donor car I picked up has a strong 318 in it now with a 904(shifts good) hooked up to a 7.25 rear end. Here is my question for you. I am wanting to...

here are the pics of the donor car. Not to bad for 900.00

Well it has been a while. I finally got the front end off of the car to begin cleaning it up. I just went over to Charlotte today and bought a donor car. Turned out to be a pretty good deal. It had new air shocks, new front suspension, new brakes on the front, strong running 318, and smooth...

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this for me. Will 72 swinger body panels, floor pans, and trunk pans fit on a 74 swinger with little to no modifying??? I am needing to replace a quarter panel, trunk pan, and floor pans. I came across a steal of a deal on a 72. If this will work and I...

Well, I finally got it started with the ignition. It was the interlock reset/solenoid. I cut the two yellow wires and spliced them together and fired up like a charm. Thanks to everyone for the help and input. Pulled it out of the garage to do a little work and when I went to back it in figured...

Thank you for the info 67dart. I will trace it all. If it is the interlock, which mine does have, do splice the two yellow wires where it goes into the interlock reset box?

I replaced the starter relay and the ignition ballast today and still got nothing when I turned the key (not even a click). I then jumped the terminal on the starter relay and got it cranked!! Checked the other two connections on the relay and grounded out the one with no power to see if it was...

I work out at Camp Mackall and everytime I can hear the engines running from work and it gets me all fired up!!!! This will be my first time coming to the event. Can't wait!!!

:banghead:So today tried a few simple things to try and get the dart started. Replaced the Ignition Ballast resistor and starter relay. Guess what? Still nothing. I guess now I will try the neutral safety switch and see if that does the trick.

Now that I have the dart in NC, I took some time to expose and see how bad the rust was in places. I also wanted to see how much work was going to be involved in the restoration. I took the pics today to start the documentation process. Here are the pics. Hopefully I will have this done in time...

Near raleigh here

Thank you to everyone for the input.

need some info from everyone. I am going to get the 318 rebuilt in my 74 Dart. It is still an all numbers matching car and I want to keep it that way but I would still like to add a little pep into her step. I know how to fix stuff but when it comes to talking the language, i am lost!! I...

hello everyone, I need some help and advice on finding a good(great) engine machining and rebuild shop near or somewhat near Raleigh, NC. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I need to get the engine back to as pristine condition as I can. 3rd generation owner of a 74 dart swinger.

thanks for the info guys. I will try tomorrow. It does not even click when I turn the key. I am starting a very slow restoration on this dart. I am the 3rd generation owner of it. Owner as of this past Friday. Like I said, it has been sitting. Could be worse, Could be better. I will let you know...

I am trying to get my 74 dart running. I brought it from MS to NC this weekend. It hasn't ran in over a year. I am trying to get it to start. I put a new battery in it and I have electrical power everywhere. When I turn the key to start NOTHING. Trying to narrow it down to a few things. Here is...

Thanks for the info ocdart!!!I was more or less using frame off as a figure of speech. LOL!! I am going to make her roll in her grave probably by the time I get through with it. More because of the paint job I have in mind. I am going to go with the sublime green and black. I would like to know...

I am finally pleased to announce that next weekend I have the joy and privilege and getting to begin the restoration of my 1974 Dodge Dart Swinger. This was my grandmothers car before she passed away in 1995 and it has been sitting at my father's place since (driven up until 2007). I am going to...

As of right now it is an all numbers match and i would like to try and keep it that way as much as possible.
