Very Nice car, I just picked up a 71 California 318 car, My 65 was lonley. Welcome to the site hope to see you at Moparfest in August. :toothy6:
 
Welcome! Cool Dart. Was it originally black, then painted orange? The fender tag will tell for sure. Real black 340 Darts are pretty rare!! Have you pulled the back seat to see if the broadcast sheet is there? Great to see a relatively unrestored Dart!!!

How do i pull the seat? I am thinking it will be there as the seat has never bin recovered its still from factory. also i think its a original purple car, the fender tag is hard to read its bin painted over.. but the guy i bought it from wrote down what he could read ill post it tomorrow and hopefully someone cal help me decode it.

Use that, or list the tag on here. Take the tag off and try reading it from the back side, should be easier that way. Do not lose the tag, pr put it someplace where it lost!!!
The rear seat bottom needs to be pushed in/back, then lift it up and it should come out.

The paint code is 2nd code up on the left hand side of the fender tag...TX9 would be black, FC7 purple. The code above it will be the roof color.

Very nice score BTW. Does it run as good as it looks?

Help me decode it please :p
 
Use the link that is posted in Post# 19 Looks easy to do.
 
its a real 340 4 speed.
the c7 ???????? could be fc7.
maybe its orig purple then black then orange.
that should be tx9 if its orig black
 
Wow Too cool!!! The car was FC7 Plum Crazy purple with no vinyl top and it was coded for the V21 Hood blackout and the J45 hood pins and the C55 front bucket seats. Awesome find. Keep the pictures coming.Love the 70 340 Swingers:notworth: The V8N might be a W or an X instead of the N which is the bumble bee stripe color which the W would be for white and the X would be for black. Thanks again for posting.
