    My 1972 F7 Dart Swinger

    I got mine from Phoenix Graphics. They sent me all the metallic gray/silver materials they had (6 or 7 samples?), I picked one out and they made them using the factory stripe template on hand.

    I see your 318 engine call outs in place! I can't tell you how many double takes that mine got at Carlisle, the Mopar Nats and MoparFest over the summer! Thanks again for making that happen!

    Swinging for Divorce…

    Bad News - I went to buy new fluorescent tubes for my 8 foot shop lights this month and was informed that you can no longer legally buy them here or buy them on line and have them shipped here. I ended up buying a kit to install LEDs in the 8 foot fixtures. The "kit" was new bulbs and...

    don't get too ready to hang all your lights on the ceiling. I put lights up on the side of my garage at the level of side windows in the car for better illumination inside the car, and even lower to give me light when working under the car

    1970 Swinger 340 resto

    WOO HOO!!! Congratulations! I find it useful to make a "punch list" of things that need to be done. It keeps you on track and you get the satisfaction of crossing stuff off as you get to it. If you can just do a little bit on a regular basis, you'll make great progress.

    Just as slow as before mods..

    SOMEBODY BUY THIS CAR!!! IMHO - The OP shouldn't fix anything. Someone with the skills to make this a truly great car should make the OP a good offer and drop a really potent small block in it.

    1970 Duster project in Sweden

    if you look up Torqueflite 904 pan gasket up on the Summit Racing web site they offer a pan gasket with a silicone bead around it. I tried one because of a persistant leak and it sealed right up - had to take the pan off again and reused the gasket and it sealed right up again! You use no...

    Just as slow as before mods..

    WOW My best advice to the OP is to find an excellent old school mechanical shop. Even if you have to pay to haul it to them on a flat bed, it's WAY better than casting around here with the depth of the mismatch in parts.. They can go through the car, make the best of what you have and then...

    I have a suggestion for you when you go to install the console carpet. I got the idea from somebody here. I got a bunch of industrial quality velcro at the hardware store and installed the console carpet with that. If you ever need to work with the console wiring or the linkage, you just...

    suggest that you get a thermostat gasket from Real Gaskets in Tennessee. I've tried other gaskets of theirs and was underwhelmed but that thermostat gasket is great. If you get one FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. I have one that I have used in a motor for 3 years and I needed to remove the housing...

    I used a similar kit from them - imagine my surprise when it was shipped to me from Brussels Belgium! Great system - I used a compatible battery that came from WalMart.

    My 1972 F7 Dart Swinger

    Yes, I don't know when it started but I would bet at least as far back as 67 and on into the mid 70s. You could order your car with any combination of colors that were offered on the car. Use your imagination... plum crazy with a F4 green top??? I'm not a big expert on fender tags, but I...

    under the vinyl top trim. I always liked the way that older cars in the 50s and 60s had stainless trim that sectioned off portions of the body so that it was easy to have 2 tone or even three tone paint jobs from the factory. They probably used the clip holes and knobs to mask off the sections...

    My 1972 F7 Dart Swinger

    So I have 3 1970 Darts. All came originally with vinyl tops (Dodge had packages and deals that included vinyl roofs that year). I have removed the vinyl roof on 2 of the cars and the third one still has its original factory vinyl on it. I left the vinyl trim on the purple car because one day...
