    My Third Times A Charm 69 Dart Swinger

    Would like to do a 6 pack setup but they are so rare. An STR-12 is easier to find. I also won an Outstanding paint award. Thanks

    My Third Times A Charm 69 Dart Swinger

    S Sorry to hear about a 5th shop. So many bad people out there calling themselves professionals. My build was delayed because I have a sick wife, cancer, liver transplant etc so it was hard to spend a lot of time on the car. Then a house build and move. Lets hope its all done, just a few small...

    My Third Times A Charm 69 Dart Swinger

    I used a Vintage Air 69 Chevelle Air box ( not digital) that allowed me to run the lines under the top of the fenders. AC on drivers side and heater on passenger side. I did have to modify the blower switch set up and a few other things. The digital air box would be better if the outlets are the...

    My Third Times A Charm 69 Dart Swinger

    A few final details such as trim, rear side marker reflectors, drivers mirror & final cut and buff. I have driven it about 300 miles, runs and stops great. Changed out rear wheels for a custom set from Stockton so I can run 255/60/15 drag radials. All parts on this car are new or rebuilt.
