Sorry, the numbers above are 'documented' numbers, and a few have been known to be wrecked, crushed or MIA. Cg

BAM. OK, I've been in conversation with Galen Govier lately, as he's had that old info since the early 2000's, so a lot of rubber has been left on the pavement since then, and he wanted me to send him updated info, we've been in talks and I've fed him the updated '71 #'s. There are 24 known to...

Hey hwd2... here ya go - definitive proof. Do you know where one is? I heard there were 1 or 2 over your way... Cliff

Hey Rocky. Way late response here... when you refer to 'did they modify', you mean the dealership. As far as my research went, old pics, talking with original owners and such - no. They came 'as is' off the dealership lot. I guess they felt the modification was the 'special' order of getting...

Turdkicker. Show us some love, give us a little more info, pics! You have a really neat '71 Canadian Swinger 340 Special there. Cliff

Been over a year since the last post here, would be great to get the conversation going again. Turdkicker, do you have any updates to your very rare Canadian 340 special? Questions? I have a lot of info on these cars so would love to touch base - here, or PM me. Anyone else out there with one...

OK TurdKicker, who gave you that handle? Now that's a Canadian Prairie name if there ever was one!! Yup, you do have one of the Canadian 340 Swinger Specials and as J says, it was G. Millars prior to you getting it. So, it's not a 'new' one, but it was one that was recorded way back before you...

Lol! That's awesome, too bad another didn't surface but make sure you keep Daysland, Stettler, Baulf and that whole area on their toes. Sounds like a sweet ride and hope to see you in Red Deer with it.

MrMopar from Daysland, don't be holdin' out on us, chomping at the bit to find out more, but just to verify, you actually own and run one of these rare little 340 Specials? Post more info my good man, please...

Hey 340duster, nice update and thanks for capturing the 'Canadian Pickers' segment, pretty neat. I talked to 'Scott' from the show and he found that picking session 'very interesting', just the vast amount of auto and petromobilia there, it's amazing). So, yes, was to Dave's out there in Mission...

Sweet. Can add that to the list of oddities with these '71's and '72's.

Canuck, can't remember, but does yours have a cardboard headliner? With the upgrade, not sure if Pembina cars got them - the Crosstown cars were cardboard, so j, wait for Canucks reply. Good on your new baby's in the body shop already.

If you want to take a drive east to Strathmore, Todd over at Muscle Motors does great engine work and he's a Mopar fan. Give them a call, they can be reached at 403.934.6256. They have a great new facility on an acreage just west of the town - tons of machining and engine building stuff along...

From what I understand, and reading in a number of places was that the Canadian arm of Chrysler was pretty much anonymous and kept there own records. With that said, I do have a document that a Don Fox out of Edmonton, who owned a couple of these 340 Specials back in the '90's, had contacted...

Staying with the history of these '71 and '72 Swinger 340 Specials, I'd love to know what kind of history mine had. As you can see from this montage of pics, that it had a tuck-n-roll interior, door panels, seats, front and back and the Hemi Orange was covered by a gun metalish grey. I do...

Let the build begin! Good stuff. So, when does the 72 make it's way home?

Hey 340canuc, good string to start here. Hopefully you and j061093409, aka, Joel, can find out info on both your cars - because these cars warrant it. Just so we know, these are the only 2 known Pembina Dodge '72 Swinger 340 Specials of the possible 10 or 15 built for that Winnipeg dealership...

Hey Alberta, originally from Hylo, N.E. Alberta (find that one on the map!), living in Calgary but with a cabin on Gull Lake - in CENTRAL ALBERTA - so I count, right? Anyway, just wanted to bring to every Albertain's attention, Danny posted that he has a '72 Swinger 340 Special, although his...

Energy companies here in Alberta were hit with a 20% jump in royalties by the Ed Stelmach Government (thought he needed more money) so energy activity has slowed down. The people/places benefiting from it are North Eastern BC and as mentioned, western Saskatchewan. There are still a few pockets...

Chrisf, I already have one (it's a '72 340 Special and I have a 70 340 4sp Swinger) but there are people looking. Is the car intact - what shape is it in? Would you be buying it for parts? What parts are you looking for? I see you're from the Vernon area and there is an EV2 Crosstown car...

Go Canada and it's Canadian Mopar treasures. Along with the early Darts, Valiants and Fargos - keep an eye out for the Swingers! 1971 and 1972 Swinger 340 Specials to be precise – built exclusively for Crosstown Motors, Edmonton (71's & '72's), Crestview Dodge, Regina, SK (71's) and...
