Jumping In With Both Feet

[440Auto-Dart]

Hello from the Pacific Northwest! It looks like I will be picking up a 71 Swinger with a 440 and automatic. Seller needs a truck, I *NEED* another project... ](*,)

The car needs (from what I see in pictures), paint, interior work/restoration, matching wheels. No real rust issues in the quarters, trunk including the spare well, around the windows or doors/rockers. Where else should I be concerned about rust?

Not an original car by any means but likely a serious giggle to drive which is what I wanted.

Welcome from a little further north. 440 in a Dart, sounds like fun.

Welcome from Fredericksburg, VA. I would suggest you get a good look underneath. You should check the floor pans from underneath. You also want to inspect it closely if it has a vinyl top.
