    emblems

    drilling those holes out can be kind of dicey if the previous owner filled them with plastic filler. go slow so you don't blow out the hole and take a big chip out of the paint. another alternative you might consider is leaving the holes filled and attaching the new dart emblem with adhesive...

    1974 dodge dart swinger not grandpa's dart anymore

    I inherited this 1974 dart swinger from my grandfather. He was the original and only owner. He took very good care of it but it was still parked outside since day one and it had been in a couple of fender benders near the end of his driving career. He passed away a couple of years ago and is...
