OOOHHH, Cat gonna be okay???

Taz or Keni, I did inquire about the template for my Swinger. I seem to remember there was only a limited amount of templates back then. Tazz, if you have some PM me some info, Keni, if you are done with yours and want to sell PM me too. Whichever way works best. I kind of like the 'honor'...

It is ALMOST B5. Just a 1/2 shade lighter!!

I have never seen gas eat away paint like that. At best maybe a little fade in the gloss was about all. Did someone maybe put something in your tank or tamper with the car. About the only chemical without a noxious odor that does damage like that would be brake fluid. Never seen anything like...

Casey, got a 70 Swinger too. If you get an itch to sell the trim let me know (as long as I dont have to re-fi the house to do so), thanks. Chas.

Hey 6pak, I think these could be found on most a body cars from 68 to 72. I am sure there are other Mopars with them as well. Pretty popular pieces!! Chas.

This may or may not help? There is a difference out back on 74 up models. There is an area of metal that is gone after 73. It is just on the back of each quarter where the bumper goes around the side. It goes under the sides of the bumper ends where the quarter panel meets the bumper. The edges...

I dont have a pic of the underside of the hood to show you but there should be two round holes towards the back and they are about 2 1/2 to 3 inches apart and they are 4 inches round with a foam type ring around each hole. The holes sit side by side a few inches forward of the back mounting...

Watch out!! By I think it was 74 the SWINGER emblem changed a bit. The little yellow flower above the 'I' was taken off the die so no more little flower!! Chas.

Myself I would get the estimate on having the job fixed by a pro. Get three in fact. That is a very repairable dent. Once that main damaged area is pulled the rest for the most part will kind of repair themselves as the larger dents around the main one are being held in place by the main dent. A...

This is not with black accents but its nice in my opinion. Since this car was original from the factory with a black top, blue interior, and beige paint it needed something. Wel, it got it. Chas.

Inside the trunk on the rear panel is the bolts you are looking for. Just stand right under the lid and look down and you will see the bolts on both sides. You can remove them without any help. Remove all of them on each side but leave one top one on each side threaded in just enough to hold the...

Take a look at the pic of my engine compartment. It aint much but it IS nice. Imagine if I painted it black or something like that prior to installing the motor and then painted the car B5 like it is. Kind of crappy. I think the best thing to do is to determine the final color, paint and detail...

I had some on my 70 Swinger back in the day. It was a second owner car and was not altered. They were at the back corner of the glass. Mine were different though. They had the bee on them but were about 4 inches round, white/off white and said Scat Pack Club on them around the top half outside...

Man, you look like the cat waiting outside the mouses hole with baited breath, gongrats. Looks good. Guess its peanut butter and jelly time, WOOOOO HOOOOOOO!

Hey Bud, You have what I have. Its not a 70 Swinger 340, just a 70 Swinger. There are a total of 7 emblems on these cars. On the lower dog leg of the right front fender is where the pentastar emblem goes. On each side of the quarter panels below the rear side windows are Swinger emblems with the...

A buddy of mine told me nobody makes these gaskets. Thats the bad news. The good news is you can find some good used stuff on 68 to 73. This would mean drilling the holes and mounting the clips for 68 up trim. Valiants like yours as you know in two door form ran 67 to 69. They did also run in 4...

Overdone?????

not trying to steal the thread but I got a pm about it and could not post pics on the PM. This is what the right paint, a little creativity, and a touch of detail can do to an old car. Amazing to me has been the people crawling around in this car at shows wanting to know about the interior and...

Check out these pics. I bought a pint of a Dupont flexible ready to paint dye for the blue. I used it on the armrests, dash, dash pad, and a pillar trim. I used a Dupont bahama blue paint that needed mixing to paint all the other blue on this interior. This was done because I wanted a lighter...

no they did not. The factory did not put them on Swingers but they will fit and the vent windows will open too. Chas

As far as I know the color would be the difference. I think that is it!! Chas

Hey Flat, drop that tire to a 60 series and all issues are gone with no alterations to the car. Cheaper to cut but like a tatoo its permanent and the tire will just wear away. I run 215X60X14 on my swinger now with no issues. Your car, your choice but I would just be dropping the tire size if it...

Flatlander, I am not sure what you mean about where the tire catches the fender. I am going to assume you mean the very front bottom corner of the fender hitting the tire when the wheel is turned? Are you running the early A Body in your avitar or a later A Body? I know there is not much of a...

You did not mention where the car is region wise. If its got front fender, rear fender, inner fender rust there is going to be LOTS more in places you might not think. Adam noted the cowl area. This is a biggie. If its rusted it can be fixed but its alot of work. Check the frames real good...

Hey Vic, B5 blue is first. It looks very close to my car and by the way, I am posting a pic so you can see what your car might look like when done if you are going this route. B3 blue is second. It is more of a silver/bllue color. Correct me if I am wrong and someone please chime in but I have...

You are missing one of the guides that holds the window in place. It is a three piece part. There are two white nylon pieces about 2 inches long by about 3/8ths of an inch thick and both pieces are rectangular shaped. there is a small metal 1/8 th of an inch pin that is about 1/2 inch long that...

This is my old Dart Sport. Enjoy!!

Dartnut said it all. Signet was dropped after 69. I have used 68 Valiant fenders on a 76 Duster. Other than the marker lights only two bolts in the front behind the grille didnt line up but that was because of shock bumpers on the 76. I have put 69 Valiant fenders on a 72 duster and everything...

Hey 71Dodge, look like the bottom cut is going to leave you still making patches and ditto on the dutchman panel, you may want to replace the dutchman too as they are not hard to come by and you will only benefit in the end. By the way, I spied something in your interior like mine. Whatch think...
