I’m not posting this to incite an argument or to have a debate based on stupidity on anyone’s part. This is a newspaper article from a town 20 minutes down the road. I am only posting this to warn all of us out there buying and selling anything to be cautious. I’m not saying this could happen to...

Hey all! Just finished some major interior upgrades on my ‘73 Swinger and I’m looking for a couple missing parts. I need the driver side hinge cover for the split bench seat and the knob for the release lever to access the rear seat. I’ve posted pics of the passenger side which is still...

Hey all. I screwed up and ordered the wrong carpet for my car back in January. I did not open the box until last week when I got the car back from the body shop. I ordered from Rock Auto and have since passed the 30-day return window. I have already reordered the correct carpet as I cannot...

Just wanted to publicly thank Denis (@67/6barracuda) for the recent transaction we made. He was quick and thorough in packaging, insuring, and shipping the long ram intake he sold me. He was a great guy to chat with and showed a lot of integrity selling to me at the original price, when better...

Help! I finally got my car out for the first time this year tonight and my transmission dipstick as I was getting ready. I have a 1973 Swinger with a 318/904 combo. I don’t even need a tube, just the stick itself. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chris

Just saw this deal in my email. Thought I would pass it along to anyone considering this particular upgrade. SD Truck Springs has 10% off of all Hellwig sway bars along with a $35 rebate and free shipping. I bought front and rears from these guys last summer. Best prices I could find at the time.

Hey FABO! I need some help. I have a '73 Dart Swinger with factory a/c. I am in need of both components for the condenser drain. I have the piece from the heater/air box to the firewall but it is in dire straits. I do not have the other part that attaches in the engine compartment. I have...

Hey all, I am looking for some advice as I try to wrap up my suspension/steering update. Everything is new front and rear on my 1973 Swinger. I have Hotchkis leaves in the rear with an additional 1" lowering block. Up front I have PST 1.03" bars. As I adjusted the front ride height and...

I have a '73 Swinger. I have removed the entire front end (steering and suspension) for a long overdue refresh. New bars, bushings, TRE's, Pitman, idler, etc. In disassembling the car, I found that my left lower control arm has the tab for the sway bar. The right side does not. I would like...

Hey FABO. I have seen some threads on this topic and think I have exhausted all of the leads to locate some 318 + 4 Barrel decals for an air cleaner. I was hoping somebody might have a lead on them or even have one squirreled away that they would be willing to part with. Thanks, as always...

Hey FABO friends. I am getting the stuff together for a front end rebuild on my ‘73 Swinger. I am going to swap in a set of 1.03 bars with new adjusters and replace all BJ’s, TRE’s, and bushings. I’m going with polygraphite bushings but stockish pieces for the rest. Planning to do LCA stiffening...

I have acquired a ‘71 383 or 440 dual snorkel air cleaner through some bartering. I was hoping to put it on my 4 bbl swapped 318 but it hits the a/c lines. Therefore I am going to sell it in hopes of purchasing a 340 air cleaner. I have looked around a little and this seems to be reasonable at...

Now that this project is complete and everything works as planned, I thought I’d share briefly. Most of you will probably think I’m insane and you’re welcome to join the club. LOL. I have a ‘73 Swinger that I picked up in November ‘17 from the original owner. I started it and drove it on the...

Hey all. I’m in need of a “Dart” fender emblem for my ‘73 Swinger. Give me a shout if you have one you would be willing to let go of. I prefer PayPal if at all possible just ‘cus it’s easy. Thanks for looking! Chris

Okay, I have looked around and tried to find the definitive answer to my question but do not feel confident yet in my results. I have a '73 Swinger with the original 318. I have another 318 from a '75 D100 truck that is free to me (thanks dad). It is my understanding that these two are...

Ok, I have looked and cannot find any threads related to this issue. I am not saying they are not there, I just can't find them. I have a 1973 Swinger that I just put new wheels and tires on. Upon getting them installed, I have found that the front-end sits off to the left more than the right...
