I believe 12-15 k in this market is probably fair. Although I am sure it probably cost you more than that, to build that nice of a clone. Of course the " experts " will require a 100 point inspection from Galen Govier, and will want the Demon for 7k.

I think that 340 Duster would fetch about $3500-4000 up here. We are used to starting with RUSTY project cars. I could imagine guys from the dry Southern States would be scared of it though. $500 is a BONEHEADED, INSULTING, assessment, in the first place. Mind you every car guy I know wants...

" Survivor " is a patented CORVETTE term, or so I have heard. Anyone know ?

Muscle car prices are way down for sure, especially in decline since the muscle car boom from 2005-2008. At BJ in 2006, an Orange 1970 Hemicuda rag, sold for $ 2 million, plus 10% buyers fee. January, 2013, at BJ, a FC7 1971 Hemicuda rag, sold for $1,125,0000. In 2006, the Ray Allen 1970 LS6...

In 2007 I scored a rust free, 1974 Rallye Challenger with a 1970 440 ( six pack block ) for $1800. Kind of funny because I had already shook the guys hand at $1500. His wife walks into the garage, and says, " NO. I think we should have the car appraised ". I said, " Why ?, How much do you think...

The photo to your left is a Dodge Dart. The new one is a piece of ****.

A band called CLUTCH does a song about a 73 Dart.

All due respect, Sister, but why bother ? A-body 8 1/4 or EVEN 8 3/4, are NOT that hard to find. 8 3/4 cost a few bucks, but an 8 1/4 is almost FREE for an A-body. Out here they have very little value. Like maybe $200 for a complete bolt in 8 1/4 set up. Dakota ?, Jeep ? Talk about taking...

Cool Rani. Can't say I have ever seen a 72 340 swinger special clone. I have seen 2 swinger specials for sale in the last couple years. 20k for an orange project car, and 10k for a solid running, driver. I can't remember what Color it was. They were both on Calgary kijiji. Cliff will remember...

Yeah Darren used to be a hardcore street racer in Calgary. He's a character. Centerlines, on his Dart, and a spiked hairdo for the last 25 years !!!! The original 4-speed was stolen years ago.

I love 70 Swingers in F4. My dad had a 70 340 Swinger, F4, F8 interior, bench seat, 3-speed stick, rubber floor, white stripe. That was the car that started it for me. Literally. Apparently, I was CONCIEVED in it !

My neighbour has a factory h-code 72 340 Swinger from Crosstown in Edmonton. It is a FE5 Red car with Black bee stripe, black guts, factory 4-speed, and 72 style scoop. It now runs a 360 auto, but is a very nicely restored car.

I do not build for resale either, ....but....I. Also try not to make unwise Mopar decisions, in the event that I HAVE TO SELL something, or I need to sell to purchase a different car. No panties here either. And that goes for the MISSUS as well !!!!! LOL.

Yeah, to each his own, that's for sure. My buddy had a 71 Charger R/T, u-code, 4-speed, Dana, ram charger car, originally f8 green. He had it BEAUTIFULLY, and CORRECTLY, restored, ( paint dabs, chalk marks,etc) in FM3 Panther Pink !!!!!! A Color that to my knowledge, was not even available in...

I would go with the Petty Blue, especially since it is the original Color. Black looks badass on EVERYTHING, but keeping it looking clean is a P.I.T.A. Just my 2 cents. By the way, my biggest pet peeve, are Mopars painted HI-IMPACT colours, when they were not available color options for the year.

Drove my Dart about 10,000 miles in the last 5 years.

Was wondering if anybody knew what Color the shifter knob was on a 1970 340 Swinger, with a 3-speed manual transmission ? Thanks.

I hate to say it, but MOPARIANS are hard to deal with in general. I have always found GM products to be a MUCH easier sell.

Yeah. That's the ONLY thing I HATE about the "HOBBY", having to fend off "FLIPPERS", every time I take my car out in public.

Good point. Sentimental value comes into play as well. At the same time, I think the fella was enjoying the attention, his primered Dart was getting. Even if a few guys probably pissed him off.

Actually, I did not find him hard to deal with at all. Other guys that I talked to that day were saying he had ROCKS in his head. Those were probably the same guys who offered him 5 k. That's what I meant. I have also been in the owners shoes, ( many times before ), half of Calgary wants MY 70...

So, I attended a major car show the other day. One of the cars that really got my attention was a primered 70 340 Swinger project car. It also had some interesting, ( and lack of ) options. FC7 paint, white vinyl top, white stripe car. Black bench seat, 3-speed stick , hood pins, rallye wheels...

Chrysler parts guys are fairly familiar with muscle car era MOPARTS over here in Calgary.

Numbers matching is definitely a PLUS factor. However, " used to be a 340 car" is kind of a stupid term for anyone to use. If it is a factory h-code 340 car, it will always be just that. ( A factory 340 car ). Numbers matching, NOM, even running a 318 or 360, or no motor at all ! Just my two...

Yeah, the last time I drove my car, some guy in a new Mustang GT ragtop drove beside me for like 5 minutes straight, trying to agitate me. Then he took off like a total idiot, grabbing gears at like 5000 rpm. ( In a 60 kph zone ! ) He DID kind of remind me of NEEDLES !

I drive my nicely restored 70 340 Swinger as much as I can in the summer, ( 10,000 miles in the last 5 years ). Just about every time I am out enjoying my car, some late model Mustang or Transformer Camaro, or even a Dodge diesel truck challenges me. I think it's kind of funny, because I am not...

Only 70 340 Swinger came with a FACTORY RALLYE DASH. 68-69 Swinger, GTS, 340/ 383/ 440 m-code did not. Also 71-72 340 Swinger ( WESTERN SPECIAL), DEALER ORDERED from CROSSTOWN in EDMONTON, OR PEMBINA in SASKATCHEWAN, did not EITHER.

I would leave it the way it is. Thats just me.

Nice GTS, I believe I was looking at it on CARS ON LINE website, a while ago. Congrats, Buddy.

I had a 2002 Camaro SS Ragtop for 4 months and was CONSTANTLY getting tickets and NEGATIVE attention from police. Even doing the speed limit, a cop would be going the opposite way, and EYEBALL ME BIG TIME, and sometimes blow a DOUGHNUT and follow me, or STOP ME. I guess cops seem to notice a...
