Jarkka : Congratulations on the work on your Swinger 8) .

That fibreglass tilt front must be quite an archaic piece ! Is it from Direct Connection ?

Also , not being familiar with the history of your car , I was wondering if it's an original export to Finland ( "International Order" ) ?

Hi!

That front end is home made, at early 90's we found from western Finland, actually a small city named "Pori" a guy who had made a fibreglass mould/model of his 69 Swinger. We bought that model and made totally 4 front ends to our cars. This one has survived until now. I think I will retire it and get a new one, maybe from UsBody.com.

My car is export version, slant six and automatic, PB, manual steering, 7.25 rear end, sofa seat in front. Decent heater for winter. Speedometer is up to 200km/h. It was built in the Hamtrack plant.
(have a look in the beginning of this page, there is a link.)
