Hello all, I've purchased my 1st Classic Mopar. A 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger Custom. I rescued this gem from being dismantled as the previous owner was unable to provide the TLC needed to put it back on the road. Happy to be a part of this community, Thank you.

Welcome! I hate to break it to you but that ain't midnight blue. Yall sure do get lots of snow in San Diego too.

Welcome from Kansas. I've been to San Diego. It's a beautiful place. Expensive, but beautiful.
Nice car. I like the 72s. Keep us posted. We REALLY like it when new members post their progress.

Shortly after the car was prepped for a cut & buff, the autobody specialist was convicted on federal charges leaving the car unfinished. So I had to take it to another autobody shop to refinish in what they described as "black blue".

Here's the refinish and re-paint in black blue. I originally asked the 1st bodyshop for midnight blue, the 2nd offered a more black option that I really liked.

Post #1 has a pic of the car when I picked it up from the PO. Post #12 shows vinyl stripping and bodywork. Post #14 shows final re-prep and re-paint.
