1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340 Hardtop 2-door 5.6l on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:22605

Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States

You are Bidding on a VERY RARE 1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340 that came out of the factory in 69 wrapped in paint code B-5 Blue with a Black Bumble Bee Stripe at the rear. This is the rarest of colors for the Dodge Dart as very few were factory painted this color. To add to the rarity of this car it came off the factory line with Factory Disc Brakes and Factory Posi-Rear! Also there were less Swinger 340’s produced in 69 than any other model of the Dart. This car is a very solid project car and has been stripped all the way down to the suspension and is ready to be restored. All of the disassembly work has been done so that will save you allot of time prepping it for restoration. All parts, nuts, bolts etc… that were removed have been bagged and tagged so that re-assembly will be a snap. This is a complete car with all bumpers, trim and interior. This car is a FACTORY DISC BRAKE CAR It still retains its numbers matching 727 torqueflite transmission and FACTORY INSTALLED POSI-REAR END. The original engine is long gone but a freshly built, never run 360 engine is included in the sale of this car. Also included are a rust free trunk lid, brand new still-in-the-box full rear quarter panels (both sides), two brand new still-in-the-box front fenders and the original rust free 340 hood with the chrome inserts. The floors are very decent and have had some patchwork done in the front drivers and passengers foot area. The trunk is all original and has no through rust, just surface rust. The rockers have been cut out due to rust and the rear quarters were cut at the mid point and some cheap aftermarket quarters were installed some time ago but were never finished.  They are cheap aftermarket reproductions and don’t fit well so it was decided that the cheap knock offs would be removed and tossed and the brand new American made quarters would be installed. All undercarriage frame structures are in good shape. No major rust in any of those structures or in the inner fender wells up front or the rear wheel housings. The inner rockers are in need of replacement and have not yet been cut out.  Unfortunately financial difficulties have brought this project to an end so it has to go. This would be a great Father/Son project car and would make a Fantastic driver or an Outstanding Show Car. It’s a rarity to see a Dodge Dart at a car show much less a Swinger 340 and with all of these factory installed features it will likely be the ONLY ONE. So if you want to be the envy of all of the Mopar Muscle Car Enthusiasts then don’t miss out on this very unique one of very few  classic Dodge Darts, a car that due to its power to weight ratio has been synonymous with NHRA Racing ever since the mid 60’s.

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too

Thu, 22 Nov 2012

The 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.

Dodge Challenger Scat Pack adds power and noise, with a warranty

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If you want to go fast, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Dodge Challenger SRT8. With 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque for 2014, there's certainly not much to complain about. But what if you want something more aftermarket in flavor? There's no shortage of options, but while turning to the tuner world will make your car plenty fast, that extra power won't just shred rear tires, it'll torch your warranty, as well. That's where Dodge's Scat Pack comes in.
With three stages of mods for both the 5.7 and 6.4-liter Hemi V8s Challenger (as well as the 5.7-liter Charger and, soon, the four-pot Dart), the Scat Pack cars give drivers all the power, aggression and noise of a heavily modded aftermarket car while maintaining the piece of mind provided by the Dodge warranty.
Power gets bumped up to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque with the 6.4-liter Scat Pack, while the 5.7-liter can provide up to 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque to add to the stock engine's 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet. It's the latter engine that can really get some work done, with upgrades ranging from the mundane - intake and exhaust - to the racy, like the ported heads and high-flow headers.

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.
