    71 valiant question

    It may well bolt on, it may even latch.. but, "fit"? No. The lines of the two cars are quite different when it comes to the shape of the nose.

    cleaning lenses

    I've also heard oven cleaner recommended for things like plastic lenses, but I've never tried it myself, so.. if these guys say toothpaste, I'd go with toothpaste.

    Color ideas for the wagon

    I like this idea! Gotta fab a big black pull-handle for the front, too. The orange with the strobe stripe isn't bad. I'm not a big fan of the blacked out hood, on any Mopar. Maybe it's just my redneck upbringing, but to me a flat black hood on a car says "I finally replaced my rusty...

    Color ideas for the wagon

    Exactly what I thought when I saw it.. he'd probably have knowitalls coming up to him all the time telling him "You know they never made an SC/Rambler wagon- and the stripes are wrong" et cetera, without ever noticing it was a Dart. :angry7: I can't go along with the high impact color idea...

    Color ideas for the wagon

    Are red and blue our only interior options? Because that does rather limit the choices.. If we're talking blank slate, I'll start with my stock answer: F8 green, white roof, butterscotch interior. Or if you don't like green (:angry7:), same interior color, with a dark metallic red paintjob.

    Down to bare metal

    Should be about 30 bucks at your local hardware store. Buddy and I stripped his '67 Bel Air sedan from the cowl back with it, and that car had 5 or 6 coats of paint, including latex house paint :angry7:. Just dumped it on, spread with cheap paintbrushes, removed with cheap razor scrapers, washed...

    74 Hood on a 73 swinger???

    Whoops- guess I've got egg on my face. Thanks for the info. I wonder why the difference.. seems like a waste, somehow.

    74 Hood on a 73 swinger???

    I'll admit I've never done the swap myself (I prefer the Dart beak in any case), but I'm 99% sure the only difference between the Dart & Valiant fenders in those years is the placement of the blinker lens- Valiants have them below the bodyline. And I don't see why you'd need any special...

    74 Hood on a 73 swinger???

    The '74-'76 Darts also have beaks, though.. But the '74-'76 Valiants don't, which would involve a swap of hood, grille, and bumper, I believe. Or, you could swap on a '70-'72 Dart nose (a popular swap), but for that you need fenders, hood, grille, bumper, and lower valance. For...
