Hey all you mopar nuts, My name is Andrew and I have a 73 318 .030 over (323cid) Dart Swinger orig triple green california car. I live on the eastcoast of Canada where non rusty cars are hard to come by. I have dreamed of owning one since my cousin took me for rides in his Scamp when I was 12. It didn't need a big motor it was just a cool car to me. Anyway I'm thirty now and couldn't pass up this gem when it came up for sale in my town. Future plans are red line tires and remove the bumperettes. The old swinger is now a part of my family. Glad to see such a following of all those awesome a-bodies, safe motoring to all!!!!!!!!
The last photo is what the car looked like orig, the photo is actually from a clip of Chico and the Man.

MOPAR or no CAR.
 
Hey Tony, my dad sold Dodge cars and trucks for many years while i was growing up and I remember those Daytona's you have. He would drive me to school in them, was so cool. We always got to try out the new demo's from that area. Man those little cars worked well, nice collection.
 
Here's a few more pics and stats on my old Dart. Orig AC car, 323cid, 340 cam, Steele crank, Edlebrock 600 carb, Edlebrock performer intake, 904 torqueflight 3 speed with mild shift kit with 2800 stall torque, open rear axle not sure of the ratio. have some more research to do. Thanks for the welcomes.
 
That's one beautiful car and cool that it's been on TV too!! Welcome to FABO :cheers:
 
The Chico photo is just reference to, I didn't intend to mislead. Although the show would have been taped around the same time the car was sold new, June 14 1973 in Whittier California at David Shenck Dodge. It is possible it could have been the car, i wonder how many triple green dart swingers were sold at that time in Cali, how would one ever begin to research something like that? I do have a small amount of docs with car. Orig owners names, orig warranty docs and policy coverage as well as records of regular scheduled maintenance, salesman's card.
Any thoughts?
 
Lots of nice cars in Charlottetown,looks like yours will be one of the nicest,We're from Trenton N.S. originally,welcome aboard.
