yes 72 fenders will fit.. but the entire front clip will have to be changer to a 72 set up..

worth fixing the 318.. thats personal preference... personally i think i would build a 360.. but thats only if the 318 isn't an easy fix

is it hard to replace the fron clip from 73 to a 72 ? i like the front of a 72 and would not mind switching it

 

[abodyjoe]

no . its not hard... you just make sure you have everything..

one more question any good canadian places that sell fiberglass fenders?

 

[dartboy73]

ok well i took a look at the car and it is way past my skills to restore so im going to sell it what is a 74 dodger dart swinger that runs good worth

Ok I have a comment. You are saying the fenders off of a 72 will only fit a 73 if u change the whole front clip? What the heck they are more or less the same dang car except the front end is pointed on the 73.
