I don't post on here much, but do lurk around quite a bit. In addition to my Demon (which is a major project awaiting it's turn), I just picked up a 72 Swinger. Didn't need another project, but it was local and truly rust free. Car was brought from AZ to PA, so I really lucked out. Was a 318/auto, green on green with a vinyl roof and AC. Motor is out, but at least it came with the orignal drivetrain. Odometer reads in the 39K range, but I have no idea if it's correct. Based on the condition, it very well could be, but who knows. I have a 360 I'll be building and putting in, along with keeping it an automatic. It came with a set of A body buckets, but not sure what from. I may put these in my Demon and take the bench with armrest from it for the Dart. This car is truly as rust free as it gets. It will need not one panel replaced. Fenders, aprons, doors, floors, quarters, trunk..all of it is clean with not one hole in any of them. Framerails are perfect. Sadly, there was at some point a dent in the passenger quarter in front of the wheel, and someone did the drill and pull method to fix it. I'll have to weld all the holes shut and smooth it, but it beats replacing a rusty quarter. Still undecided on what color I'll paint it, but was leaning toward Sublime..maybe yellow or B5..can't decide. I have to finish painting my Conquest, then I'll start the teardown on this one. Hopefully not too long from now. The good thing is all the parts off the car came with it, along with a new in the box set of Hedman headers and a repop Hemi scoop. I know folks love pics, so here they are..
