Your Dart was built 5 days after mine ( my Dart's sequence number was 307811 , with a build date of "204" ) !!

Mine was optioned almost exactly like yours , except that mine was EV2 Hemi Orange , with E2XW interior ( white bench seat with black accents ) and a V1W ( white vinyl top ).

"N95" = Calif Emissions Pkg

"Y84" = Sold Car

I'd be interested in knowing your car's plate number ( mine was 337 GBL ) and where it was sold new ( mine was sold via East Los Angeles Dodge , 357 S. Atlantic , E.Los Angeles ) .
 
ask and ye shall receive...

plate number is 778FOS , thats pretty cool that the builds were so close together . I just picked mine up recently and im trying to get all the info i can. Is there a way to tell if its a true swinger? sorry for the ignorance here, im usually a mustang guy.
 
Nice to see that it's got its original-issue plates ! Please , don't replace them with those yucky new ones :stop: .

All Darts from 1970 - 1976 are "Swinger" models , albeit with different trim levels and options :

LL23 = Swinger "Special" ( and the rare Canadian-only '71 & '72 Swinger Special 340 )

LH23 = Swinger

LM23 = 1970 Swinger 340

The Swinger line started in 1969 ( LL23 & LM23 ) , and that was the first year for a bargain-model 340-powered Dart , as the 340 could only be had in the GTS ( LS23 ) in 1968 .

There's more to the story , but this is the basic gist of it .

Welcome ! 8)

The dates are the scheduled production dates, not the actual build day. For very late 1972 cars you can check the new style door sticker for the MDH (Month - Day- Hour) of final assembly. More info on that at http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=A12&Number=5776089&page=0&fpart=1

Y84 is actually New Car Service - Dealership Pre-Service.

Sold car is Y14.

Thanks much , T/A :happy10: .

My Dart's build sheets ( 3 ) all stated a build date of "204" , with one of the sheets showing a time ( print time ? ) of 02:07 ; and the door v.i.n. also showed Feb 1972 .

I forgot that "Y84" means "New car Service" ... well , at least I had "Y" and "4" correct :-D .
