'74 Dart Swinger Slant Six - Colorado
I was recently reunited with the '74 Swinger I drove in high school 26 years (yikes!) ago. The car sat at my parents property UNCOVERED for about 24 years. Damn thing still runs!
The plan is to restore this Dart with my 13 year old son and he'll drive it to school I a few years. All the high horse power engine swaps are tempting but for now we'll just get it in safe driving condition and have fun with it.
I'll soon have lots of questions about brakes, electrical, engine, cooling, etc. I've been reading a ton and studying up on procedures, best practices, etc. Some of you may have seen my introduction at slantsix.org a few weeks ago.
Thanks everyone!
The horrible "me circa 1991" and "13 year old son circa 2018" photos are for your eyes.
