The antenna mast on my '71 Dart GT was broken during the Woodward Dream Cruise (trying to clear some of that yellow "CAUTION" tape). I have since located and purchased a complete replacement antenna (from FABO member Tony (whitepunkonnitro)). I have also borrowed an antenna nut wrench from...

I'm planning to replace the front windshield glass in my '71 Dart GT (45+ years of road rage has taken its toll). My mechanic/buddy said I might as well replace the back glass gasket at the same time. While perusing SteeleRubber's website I found 1 gasket for the front windshield and 2 gaskets...

Hey all I've had the twin hood scoops on my car for several years. I recently purchased the 4 1/8" hood scoop seals from Detroit Muscle Technology and I'm ready to make the scoops functional. It looks like I'll need to locate and drill a small pilot hole from the underside of the hood. Once...

A buddy of mine (with a '71, '72 and/or '73 Dart Swinger) wants to cut the REVERSE lamp portions of his tail light housings off and weld(?) a second set of BRAKE/TAIL lamp housings in their place. He's already scored a 2nd set of housings and BRAKE/TAIL lamp lenses and housings. Can the...

Saw this car over the week-end. It's a 1969 Dart with modern paint, but the fender tag shows B5 & B7 (top & bottom respectively). I've also seen a 1970 Dart with a black painted top and (I believe Go-Mango) orange body. Coincidentally, the 1970 car is owned by the previous, previous owner...

I just got a $275 quote to have my twin hood scoops painted gloss black. Unfortunately, I can't afford that right now (my daughter is completing her 3rd year at the University of Michigan (then on to graduate school), and my son is finishing his 1st year at Albion College). I'm thinking I...

Can I use the door hinges (driver side upper & lower) from a 4-door car on a 2-door car? Can I use the striker post and retaining plate (behind the jamb) from a 4-door car on a 2-door car? Any input/wisdom is always appreciated! Dan

Lets see them!!

Thinking of (eventually) removing the vinyl top from the old GT. Thought I heard someone say the windshield and back glass moldings are different for a vinyl top vs. non-vinyl top car. Does anyone know for sure? TIA Dan

Just a different idea thought. Has anyone tried a Challenger gas cap (non-flip) on a '71 Swinger? It would be different, but I don't know if it would fit/seal/line up etc... Any thoughts? (See attached picture)

I was out in the garage today and had to slide by the Dart GT. As I brushed up against the passenger front fender the hole in my jeans caught the body side molding and yanked it away from the body (about 6" long). $hit, was my first thought, but then I looked a little closer at it and now I'm...

I like the '70 340 Swinger hood blackout treatment and would like to apply it to my car. Does anyone have dimensions or up close photos of an original hood blackout car? Thanks, Dan

I want to replace the bumpers on my '71 Dart GT (Swinger) with fiberglass pieces from AAR (I want to paint match them with the body & keep originals intact). The front bumper looks like it is a remove & replace operation. However, since the rear bumper also surrounds the tail lamps, is it also...

I have a '71 Dart GT (Swinger). I would like to remove and replace the rear bumper with the bumper used on a '70 Dart. I can get a fiberglass bumper (from AAR) and the appropriate '70 lenses (from Laysons), but will have to find (swap meets) the tail lamp "housings/buckets". Assuming I can...
