Looking for 340 and/or 4 speed for 70 Dart LM23H0R321233

Looking for the original 340 and the 4 speed trans that was in this car, 1970 Dart Swinger, VIN LM23H0R321233. Car was sold new in eastern PA and probably never left until my son bought it last month and brought it to NJ. It was sold new at Uncle Mitzliff (?) Dodge in or near Tamaqau, PA.

I think it is Milt Ziff motors of tamaqua.

I just bought a motor and trans that came from Jim thorpe Pa. neighbor to Tamaqua. I bought it in Phillipsburg NJ last month on Facebook. He bought it from Tony Petruzzi years back. Its at our shop I can check the block and trans number. The block is already in our machine shop for a stroker build to sell. I have some 340's & transmissions from the area I collected. I sold the crank 2 days ago from that block. I'll check the numbers and let you know. They were definitely taken out of swinger years ago from Tamaqua. I live in Danielsville Pa.

That would be great, you never know, there could be a match.

Steve checked for your vin. no match on blocks or transmissions. I have cases here in the shed I'll check. plus one rebuilt on the shelf. I'll also check Todds Barracuda next time its on the lift. We changed that car to 4 Spd and its a 70 trans.

Thanks a million!

As a point of interest, I bought a slightly used 70 Swinger 340/4speed car, back in 1970, in Winnipeg Manitoba. It was Panther Pink/ or whatever Dodge called it..
The Vin number was
LM23H0R321200

I sold it in 1975 and never ever saw it again.
I thought that was pretty cool.

That’s cool, a few up the line from this one.
