1972 Dodge Dart Swinger Muscle Car , Mopar Extra Parts, Bonus Engine Radiator on 2040-cars
Boone, Colorado, United States
|
I have decided to let a few project cars go and keep one. This is a 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger. Vin calls for a 318 which is what it has in the car, but not sure if it is matching numbers. Found some numbers behind pump, but not sure if these are supposed to match or the casting numbers. I can do more checking and add to the auction if anyone can give me some direction. The 318 in the car is missing the intake and would likely need a rebuild. It does have some money invested in the pulley system (see photos). I do have another 318, 904 tranny an aluminum radiator that I may let go with the car if final price reaches a certain amount (I will post info towards the bottom). I believe the hood and/or grille was added from an earlier model, but I do not have the history. It has the hood scoops and the 340 emblem. I can add any information someone can give me on these cars over the next week. I know more about Dodge Chargers. The body looks solid on the car except for the small damage to the fender and a little lower quarter rust. The underside and trunk look solid. Has a spare and jack in the trunk. The interior would need some work as per photos ( dash has cracks, front and rear seat has some tears). I do have another top portion of the back seat that will go with the car and can be recovered. Car has no radiator in it now. The car has some nice mags and I have several other parts including shocks, brakes, some lines, mufflers, fan blade, new battery tray ect, per photos. This is a project car that you could do just about anything with at this point. Bonus: If the final price on the car is over $3,800 , I will include another 318 engine but will have to go off what I was told on the engine. I was told it ran good so they decided to add a new Melling mild cam and some new lifters. Was also told that it has a new timing chain and oil pump. As you can see from the photos, It has a newer (not sure if brand new) edelbrock carburetor. The engine itself can use some cleaning ect and was not completely rebuilt. I would also throw in a used 904 tranny(not rebuilt) and a Be cool aluminum radiator (was told it is worth approx. $500-600.) Radiator looks new, but has some storage wear. The last few pictures show the engine and radiator. Buyer to pay $500 deposit with paypal within 24 hours and the balance with cash/cashiers check within 5-7 days. Pick up only or you arrange shipping. The shipper would need to be able to take the extra engine/tranny if price is met. I am selling with no reserve and will list for 10 days to give you plenty of time to ask questions. |

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue.

Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The Aficionauto host Christopher Rutkowski has a real passion for original and replica cars from movies and television, whether they are from James Bond, Jurassic Park, or incredibly obscure Japanese shows. However, he might have outdone himself this time because he hopped into one of the biggest automotive stars of contemporary cinema. This 1970 Dodge Charger appeared in Fast & Furious and came back in Fast Five, where Paul Walker actually drove it. The menacing, black muscle car will make its return to the franchise in the seventh film, too.
The Fast and Furious Charger is a real beast no matter how you look at it. The interior is nothing more than two seats and a roll cage, and as the video shows, this thing vibrates constantly like a coiled mass of muscle ready to strike. The camera can barely stay in place most of the time. Also, Dom's Dodge is more than happy to do a smoky burnout and leave the driver partially deaf afterward from its wonderful, ear-splitting engine roar.
The Aficionauto also interviews the man who controls the keys to this beast. Bob Hartwig was once an F-15 pilot, but he also loved Hollywood vehicles. Now, he's a partner at Picture Car Warehouse, a company with about 850 cars that supplies vehicles to film studios. This Charger definitely seems to be Hartwig's favorite in the collection, as it should be.
