    [WANTED] 9" rear drum parking brake strut and lever

    Hi all, rebuilding my 1970 Dart Swinger 9" rear drum brakes (drums all the way around). I can't find the parking brake strut or lever, for 9" brakes, anywhere. No idea where the parts that were supposed to be in the car went (first time the drums were touched since I bought the car). I've tried...

    Original rear drum rebuild kits/source?

    Hi all, in my never ending quest to get all 198CI of Detroit muscle back on the mean streets of St. Paul, MN I'm trying to finish the brake overhaul on my 70 Dart. The fronts are being converted to discs and I'm running new brake lines (and a new M/C) but also realized that the rear drums (10")...

    Twin Cities area cry for help (slant six/carb)

    Hi all, I'd posted on here previously about my problems with getting a carb (holley 1920 single barrel, just rebuilt by a local carb shop) to work on my 70 Dart Swinger 198 Slant Six. I also posted a video on a FB Slant Six group to see if there was anything obvious we were missing (have decent...

    70 198, Holley 1920 Singlebrl connections

    Hi all, I recently had my Holley 1920 single carb rebuilt and while I took some pics of the original set up, I somehow missed the angles that would have been more helpful. Does anybody have pics of a similar set up (70 Dart Swinger, 198 slant - Holley 1920 single barrel) for reference...

    Disc brake conversion (70 Dart)

    Hi all, I'm looking to upgrade from my stock 9" drum brakes to disc. I got the brake related parts shown in the pics below (including the four wider rims) from the Dart's previous owner. Not sure if these are worth saving and reusing or just as cores etc but would love any input or advice on...

    Mopar "Crate Hemi Engine Kit"

    I was curious if anyone has experience with the Hemi engine management kit (P/N177072455AB) straight from Dodge? The obvious surface appeal is that it's straight from the same people who made the motor, assuming you're doing a new hemi swap of course, it's made for dropping into a 70s Mopar, and...

    727 beginner question/verification

    Hi all, as part of my Dart purchase I got a spare tranny thrown in, a 727 from a Fury (as per previous owner). I was planning an engine swap and am thinking of going to a 5.7 and I know some 727's bolt up but this appears to be the "big block" variation that I'm not sure bolts up the 5.7. I'm...

    Sanity check re engine swap options/planning

    Hi all, very recent owner of a 70 Dart Swinger with a stock slant six/auto tranny (has issues but does crank) and looking to take the opportunity to upgrade to a V8 so I'm doing some research and planning. I'll also be looking to upgrade the brakes (disc up front at a minimum) and suspension...

    Minnesota new member (70 Swinger)

    Hi all! I've been lurking/reading this site for a little while now while doing research to figure out what I wanted to do for my first "real" project car. Yesterday I took the plunge and bought a 1970 Dart Swinger. Slant six, 65k miles, three owner, avocado green inside (partially green outside...
