For sale is my 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger that was born with a 340 and a 3 speed manual transmission on the floor. The vin, fender tag, door tag, the number stamped on the trunk lip under the weatherstripping all match. I also have the build sheet, so this is the real deal. The Dart is also a California car.

The engine and transmission......The 340 engine and the four speed manual transmission that are in the Dart right now came out of a 1969 Cuda. The Cuda engine had a high quality rebuild about 8 years ago and that's when the Cuda engine was put in for the original 340. The Cuda engine starts right up and runs strong. The transmission also runs strong and shifts with no problems. I still have the original numbers matching 340 that the Dart was born with but I do not have the original 3 speed transmission that it was born with. The Cuda engine doesn't have a bunch of miles on it since the rebuild,  the Dart was sitting for a while and only driven from time to time.

Interior......The interior is all black and could use a new headliner, new carpet, new door panels, new dash pad and rear seat reupholstered. I do not have the original front split bench seat anymore, the front seats in it now are just some bucket seats out of a old charger. I took the carpet and seats out so that you can see the floor pans in the photo, there is no rust at all. The gauges, heater, speedometer and lights all work but I don't have the original tachometer anymore, it has an aftermarket tachometer now. I don't have the original am radio either, it now has a cd player.

Exterior......The body and trunk are rust free except for a small area on the lower driver's side rear quarter panel, see photo. The rust has only affected the outside metal and not the interior metal of the quarter panel, it looks like to be an easy fix. I do not have the original hood and hood scoops anymore, the hood was damaged years ago when a box fell on it. It didn't damage anything else but the hood and slightly bent the hood hinge, that's why the hood on it now doesn't line up that well. The hood now is just a stock hood from a 1970 dart. The Dart was born with Hemi Orange paint and a black stripe on the trunk. The Dart has been sitting out in the sun for years and the paint shows it. The black stripe has also been taken off. The body is very straight but has a few minor dents/blemishes, nothing that can't easily be fixed. All the glass looks good but the windshield will need to be replaced due to a long crack. All the lights and blinkers work.

You can view the photo of the vin and fender tag printout to see what the Dart was originally born with.

I'm sure there are many things that I forgot to mention but just send me an email and I'll get back to you.

This is a very solid car. The Dart is fast, loud and a lot of fun to drive.

12 new cars that will never go out of style

Tue, Nov 23 2021

Some cars never go out of style. It’s rare, but it happens. They get old. They get depreciated. But they never stop looking cool.  Some might call them modern or instant classics. Within a few years theyÂ’re no longer the latest and greatest, no longer the flavor of the month, but they remain special. Eternally special. Timeless.  These cars arenÂ’t necessarily going to be worth a fortune someday. However, some may not depreciate as rapidly or as far as other models. But thatÂ’s not what weÂ’re talking about here. These are the cars that enthusiasts will always find desirable from the curbside. TheyÂ’re the cars you end up shopping on eBay late at night 10 years later because you canÂ’t get them out of your head. TheyÂ’re the cars that will forever excite you when you spot a clean one in traffic or in a parking lot.  There are plenty of recent examples over the past couple of decades that could count as instant design classics. But then we got to thinking, what 2021 models will be forever cool to stare at? Which new cars and trucks on sale today will we be shopping on eBay late at night in the 2030s? We kept supercars and other ultra-expensive cars off the list to keep things within the realm of attainability, and ended up with 12 total cars. Lexus LC WeÂ’re not applying a numerical ranking to any of the cars on this list, but if we were, the Lexus LC would be No. 1. There isnÂ’t another car design out there that can stir our emotions the way an LC can when itÂ’s just standing still. This car is a concept design come true in the most beautiful of ways, and itÂ’s a shoo-in winner for Concours events decades into the future. All of this heaping praise, and we havenÂ’t even gotten to the LC 500Â’s intoxicating 5.0-liter V8. It doesnÂ’t win drag races. It wonÂ’t be the fastest around the track against any similarly-priced competition. But none of that matters. ItÂ’s quite possibly the best car you can buy new, and that says it all when it comes to the LC. Chevrolet Corvette It might not be the stunner that the Lexus LC is, but the new C8 Corvette is and will always be a special vehicle. ItÂ’s the first mid-engine Corvette, which instantly cements it into an automotive hall of fame section of sorts. All of the performance stats and specs are there to back up its supercar-like looks, and it remains the best performance bargain on sale today.

Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.
