Vehicle Description
This very nicely restored Dart Swinger cuts a sharp looking image
with its aggressive stance and correct Hemi Orange paint. It is
spotlessly clean and detailed out from top to bottom and end to
end. If you have never had the opportunity to check out one of
these lightweight cars with the hi-po small block 340, well then
here's your chance. Come on down and check out this sweet ride.
Dodge did a great job updating the Darts from the previous
generation. A more rectangular look was created with crisp clean
lines that would define the cars looks well into the '70s. This one
received the attentions of some skilled body and paint specialists
that prepped the panels and adjusted them properly before they
sprayed it with a single drop of that bold Hemi Orange paint which
is also the original color for this car. A performance hood has
die-cast louvers announcing the 340 Four Barrel resting underneath
it and a Black Bumblebee stripe encircling the back of the car
announces it as a Dart Swinger. Up front, the grill is simple with
a single headlight on each side and is underlined by a shiny new
chrome bumper. Out back, the look is simple and clean with
rectangular taillights over another fresh bumper that has a couple
oval exhaust tips peeking out from under it. Black steel wheels
with polished trim rings compliment the stripe and the chrome
nicely.
Open the door and you will find a Back interior that is as fresh
and spotless as the outside. The door panel starts out smooth at
the top underlined by a slash of chrome with a series of vertically
embossed horizontal panel sections underneath it. The upholstery on
both the front and rear seats has been replaced and looks as tight
and right as a brand-new car. A three spoke steering wheel sits in
front of a dash with a long rectangular speedometer flanked by
factory gauges for fuel and water temp on the left with voltage and
oil pressure on the right. There is also a trio of Equus gauges
under the center of the dash to keep more accurate track of the
oil, water and battery. A shifter for the automatic transmission
rises high out of the floor in the center and behind it there is a
Pioneer stereo that is AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth and iPod compatible for
your listening pleasure.
Open the hood and you will find that high performance 340 cubic
inch motor nestled down in a neat and clean engine bay. The chrome
air topper announces it as a 340 Four Barrel and feeds the air to
an Edelbrock carburetor and intake manifold. Chrome Moroso valve
covers add their splash of flash while an aluminum radiator and
electric fan keeps things running cool while looking good too with
its polished upper mount. Hoses are protected by brushed metal
coverings and the new wiring harness is nicely loomed and protected
too. Stock exhaust manifolds lead out through dual free flow
mufflers to the chrome exhaust tips at the rear. Power front disc
brakes assure that you can haul this car back down from speed if
you decide to let the horses run and fresh sway bar bushings help
the car handle well. The rubber meets the road through BFGoodrich
225/70R14 tires.
Neat, clean, nicely restored and ready to roll. Come on down and
check this Swinger out.
