    Red Line Gauge works

    Used them for the rally gauges on my 70 Dart Swinger. Was very impressed with the quality of their work. Called me to go over exactly what I wanted and what it would cost. Got them back and they looked like brand new. And that included the look of the circuit board and the update to the...

    how did you learn to work on cars?

    Back in '61 dad was stocking groceries at a store, got laid off and went to work for a local mechanic shop. It wasn't too long after that, he was laid off again, and while looking for another job, happened into an auto repair shop owned by a fine older gentleman. Dad asked for a job, and in the...

    Jim, so sorry to hear of your loss. I have always appreciated your comments on my build, and those L8R's. Ben.

    how many dart generations are there?

    If your talking about the organization, 'Moral Majority'......it wasn't founded until 1979......long after the Dart was out of production. If you're talking about a bunch of 'preachers' complaining about the 'Demon' moniker, I'll agree with you there! Ben.

    Project "Unicorn" 69 Dart

    that's where the clutch linkage cross shaft is attached to the body with a ball stud. The bracket welded on the body is to reinforce the panel. This would be present on a vehicle that has a standard transmission at some point. Ben.

    Arizona Swinger

    managed to get all of the broadcast sheets put into some plastic covers. Was fortunate to find three of these sheets. Each one of them has its' own problems, but when you take all three together you get a clear picture of all of the options this car came with. While I tried to keep the car...

    Welcome aboard! Great story! Am still looking for my 69 Swinger 340 from the early 70's! Ben.

    thanks for the compliments on the Dart. Tried to talk the wife into a B body like yours, but she is standing firm on wanting a 70 model Roadrunner, even though she had a later body style.......a 72 or 73 Charger, after the RR was traded in! Ben.

    70 Swinger 340

    BEAUTIFUL car you have there. A lot of people are surprised to find out the V02 option came from the factory, as you don't see a lot of two tone cars these days. Everyone assumes it should have a vinyl top! Love your color combination........my two tone green V02 is one of those combinations...

    Arizona Swinger

    looking for a little bit of help in estimating the value of this car. I'm not looking to sell, just need an honest appraisal from those who understand these cars, and have a feeling for the current market. I realize that opinions will vary, according to personal color and drive train...

    Bench or buckets ?

    I might want to take exception to that 'grandma vibe' green seat!! But then again I am married to a grandma! Ben.

    Bench or buckets ?

    Having that bench seat made it a whole lot easier for your date to sit closer to you on a week end! I guess she could sit on the console, which probably explains why a lot of those plastic consoles had big cracks in them???! Ben.

    Bench or buckets ?

    Thanks for the further info, Rani....alas, mine was gold and did not have the fender mounted turn signal indicators. The search continues.......Ben.

    Arizona Swinger

    well the little Dart flew through emissions, even with a high idle, got plated and has insurance at a very reasonable 180.00 bucks a year for full coverage. Only downside is the limit of 2000 miles a year, but we'll have to see about that! Ben.

    Bench or buckets ?

    that fourth picture showing the tan bench seat with the floor shifter looks like the interior of my old 69 Dart Swinger 340 I've been looking for, for almost 35 years! Same color exterior! Could it be?? Ben.

    Pics of your Mopars!

    Still 'breaking' it in! A little over a hundred miles on it, but it flew through emissions and now has current registration and a plate, as well as insurance! Ben.

    New Dart Stripe?

    picked mine up from 'challenger gary' here on FABO. Fast delivery, good price and it went on without too much trouble. Believe he has an ad in the 'Mopar exterior parts for sale' section of the forum. Ben

    PayPal safe?

    Jim: Had the same 'scheme' thrown at me a few months ago. Contact Paypal.....they have a separate department that handles this very scenario. It's part of the 'nigerian scam'. If I remember right they wanted the Western Union amount sent first to a location in Maryland, and then Paypal was...

    getting ready to head out to the local 'burger stand' car show this afternoon......got the clutch replaced and the shifter adjusted properly.....man what a difference! Also got the power steering gear adjusted properly.....steering feels so much better! The more I stand back and look at the...

    that black out hood treatment has crossed my mind! Really do like the look of the hood treatment on the 71 Demon! (I swore I wasn't going to 'clutter' this car up!). Ben.

    what's there to get mad about Terry?!? lol. The colors look so much better in person! Any way the only green we could come up with was only going to be 'close', and I already have enough shades of green on this car, especially in the interior! At the very least, I appreciate your honesty! Ben.

    Thanks Ken! Purchased the stripe from ChallengerGary. Very quick delivery, and installation was pretty straight forward. The biggest challenge for me was choosing a color! Black? White? or green? Ben.
