Building a 71 Swinger 340
I've always loved the 70/71 Swinger body, and specially love the 70 Swinger 340. I like the tail lamps on the 71 better tho. I've been on the lookout for a roller to build for the 340/727 that came out of the Duster I had. I finally found one, and the price was right ( Free ) . It's a 72 body, needing pretty much everything. I'll start with 70/71 Quarters, front fenders, and grill. When I arrived to pick it up, I found out the roof had been used on another project, and the old one was on the car. So, I either need to find a roof. or fix the holes in this one and attach it to the car. I'll use the 318 K-member out of my Demon, and now I'm thinking of the 8.75 now as well, and go Dana 60 ( Free as well ) for the stroked 383 going in the Demon. Interior will match the Demon as I have two complete late model Dart interiors, for free.
What color should I go with? I'm leaning toward Plumb Crazy, and B5 Blue. Not a fan of green, so that is out. Not sure about gold, silver, or copper...
I'll add a poll...
