Hello all,
Well, I've decided to sell my 85 Buick Grand National and am looking into the high possibility of getting a 70 or 71 Dodge Dart. I've seen two in classifieds near me and they are both swingers. What makes the car a "swinger"? One has the slant 6 and the other has the 318. Are the slant six's good engines and what kind of power could I expect from it. What kind of power could I expect from the 318. I'm assuming there are more mods for the 318. Also, out of curiousity, what kind of gas mileage do they both get? What would be a better engine? The six has a 3 speed trans. The 318 has an auto trans, would that have been a 727 or something else? Did these come standard with front disc brakes? What kind of price can I expect to pay for a good driver? Any other info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
