Perfect Daily Driver 360 Swinger Revisited -The Good The Bad And What We Would Do Differently

Three years ago we did the body, paint and engine in our 72 Dart Swinger with the goal of using well chosen old school parts to create a car perfectly suitable for daily driver service in the modern world. It's met the goals, but there are a few things that need to be redone and some changes to be made in order for the old Dodge to back up it's classic Musclecar looks with some real Musclecar performance.

[@allurared9029]

Tony will never do this, he's explained again and again that part of how he does so much is by sticking to one brand. UTG would spend more money and time on that 5.0 as he would on the entirety of a lot of his cars. Plus, yes, he was a legend in the 5.0 days, but that was over 30 years ago and since then the performance landscape for the 5.0 has changed. But, if he ever wants to step out of his mopar sanctuary... i'd love to see what UTG would do with a SBF.

[@HarleyHawk1]

Brought back memories when I first started watching. That car is my favorite type. A daily driver that's spirited. I have no desire for purpose built race cars. It has to be usable for daily use. Nice ride Tony and Kathy

[@rcnelson]

Absolutely right on. A solid, untemperamental, simple driver is just what everyone needs.

[@captainjohnh9405]

Seeing that Swinger in front of the old shop brought a tear to my eye. In that old shop, you taught me how to seat valves, gasket match, rebuild a head, and a slew of other things. But most of all, watching those poorly acted, poorly edited, humorous, and carb abusing clips gave me (a guy who had never worked on anything bigger than a lawn mower) the inspiration and confidence to turn an old, beat up, farm pick up into a solid daily driver that still turns a few heads. Thank you, Tony.

[@yurimodin7333]

what kind of truck did you build?

[@captainjohnh9405]

@@yurimodin7333 Not a build,; just a clean up and refresh (can't do much more working on the street). A 1983 F150 with the 300 I6 and the AOD. Other than the transmission, the only option was factory A/C. Absolutely nothing fancy about her. But, she gets 21 mpg at 70mph and can easily tow 4500 lbs. All this, and she has 320,000 miles.

I remember when you painted that car there, then you swapped the motor to the 360, that's a nice car.

[@jimkalfakis9893]

This channel has become more than a wealth of knowledge. It’s also therapeutic. Thanks Tone

[@Impactjunky]

Not gonna lie I was pretty disappointed with where we left off with this car. Uncle Tony told us it was gonna be a torque monster that could turn the tires over naturally and do 14s on a budget while getting good mileage. He even told me/us in one live stream that it was gonna have enough torque to pull a house down. At least I ended up getting the low end torque results I thought we were gonna get with this car on my friends 76 D100 when I put the same SP2P and a Qjet on the trucks 318. Honestly I was expecting a lot more from the 360 in this little car though, especially since Tony and I both thought that the 318 heads were gonna jive perfectly with the SP2P. The way its sitting now my stock 305 Trans Am would probably eat this thing.

[@UncleTonysGarage]

Hey, it was one of those things that looked a lot better on paper than it does in real life.

[@Impactjunky]

@@UncleTonysGarage Yeah just to be clear I'm not putting you down, when you announced the plans I was sure that this gonna be a shockingly effective combo that would really impress people. I still think it has that potential.

[@bcbloc02]

Well it was supposed to knock down mid 20s mpg too. But as a former 360 owner I kind of never thought it was ever going to be able to do that under standard daily driving conditions. Plans don’t always go like we hope. Lol I have been playing with turbos on my truck trying to find a combo to get me 1mpg better and still haven’t got it nailed only way I can do it is drive slower. lol I will get a parts combo someday to do it though I am sure!!!

[@Impactjunky]

@@bcbloc02 My 68 Satellite used to get over 20 MPG highway with a 273 and 2.76 gear. I swapped to a 3.55 gear and mileage got a bit worse but not anywhere near as bad as I expected. Especially if I stayed off the highway. Later I swapped to a Magnum 360 and kept the same carb and fuel pump from the 273. For a couple weeks I drove the 360/3.55 combo with the exact same tune and fuel system as the 273 and it got almost the same mileage as the 273/3.55 combo. I would like to test it now because I feel like its still getting high teens at 40-45 MPH.

[@jeepsblackpowderandlights4305]

I said years ago itll never get h Good gas mileage. The 360 magnum in my Jeep can only hope to get maybe 18 if im light on the throttle at 55mph.. and thats with an automatic 4 speed with lockup. But averages about 16.. yes im heavier and a brick but still.. any faster than 55 which most interstates are ill average about 16 I bet my stock 360 has more torque than this thing does as well. It sucks you neglected the paint job. I did that to my wagoneer.. and black mold got on it and even with deep poliahing it never fully came off.. mold sucks. If it really is getting mid 15s then its no faster than my Jeep and weighs probly 1000 lbs less

[@deniseb3897]

I got SO EXCITED when I saw this car. Back in 1976 when I was 16 years old a 1970 340 Dart Swinger was my very first car. It only had 42,000 original miles on it and it was a screamer. It only had the 3.23 gears in the rear end but it was a Sure Grip 8 3/4". 340 motors just LOVE to rev I treated most every stop sign like the start of a quarter mile. Tough, tough motor. I beat a lot of small block Camaros and Mustangs back in the day. I had so much fun in that car. I watched this episode so I was at first disappointed by the drivetrain. But I got over it and just enjoyed looking at your car. Actually I would love to have one like this today. At 62 I have a little more maturity than I had at 16, But if I had one of those again with a 340, I might just get in trouble again. A tame small block would still be a lot more fun to drive around than the cookie cutter cars I drive now. Thanks for showing this one Uncle Tony.

[@ninjajunpei1984]

I'm 38 now and still have my first daily driver. I have my 68 Dart 270 since I was 19. The little 2bbl 318 has some pep to it for what it is. I still have the car, but it needs some love. After watching Tony's video, I have more motivation to get it done by the end of this summer. A buddy of mine wants to help me get running alongside his Mk 3 Supra. Hopefully you can find another Swinger, I know that there are several places out west that rust free ones, though the interiors are a bit shot from the dry desert heat, but it makes for a great starting point.

[@geraldscott4302]

@@ninjajunpei1984 My first car was a '70 base model Challenger 318/2barrel, column shifted automatic, single exhaust. I was 16 when I got it in 1975. It had just over 50,000 miles when I got it. I had put about 30,000 more miles on it when all the teeth sheared off the PLASTIC cam sprocket and destroyed the engine. If only I had known it had that PLASTIC cam sprocket I could have replaced it with a steel sprocket and saved the engine. I sold the car with the blown engine and bought a '72 Nova 350, and pretty much became a Chevy guy. Only later did I wish I had used the money to replace the engine in the Challenger. But I needed a car in a hurry. Oh well. It wasn't the last car mistake I made. I've had so many $5000 cars that are now selling for $25,000.

[@1HeavyHitr]

Ya know what’s funny? Hearin about the mundane dart daily driver turns my crank more than the big projects on this channel. Go figure.

[@chumleye1112]

Agreed, it's probably because this car is something a lot more people can relate to as far as a low cash investment practical daily driver instead of a high priced one and done race vehicle.

[@agentorange2554]

Watched tons of UTG videos during the government induced panic session.

[@oikkuoek]

It needs a bigger air filter box and cold air ducts. That tiny hot air intake restrictor robs you both performance and mileage.

[@SweatyFatGuy]

My 65 GTO was built as a daily driver too, except it has a 455 with lots of compression running on vodka, and two stage pearl paint. I want to put a 4 speed back in it, thats what it had when it was new... and the 455 keeps breaking overdrive transmissions. I have a Tremec 5 speed for it, but that might end up in the 69 or the 70 GTO. Might do a LeMans as a daily with spare parts I have around here, might do the 72 Ventura as a very low buck fun toy with a ring/bearing/oil pump 400 and 2004R... for science. I suppose I could daily driver the 32 Pontiac two door sedan too, be a bit more work than the others, but man it would be cool doing grocery runs in that thing. The 68 LeMans (going to the NNN) and my 79 Formula are the only cars that aren't really intended for daily driver duties around here... they are street/strip with mostly strip intentions. Something about low buck extra parts built cars speaks to me.. probably because that is what I have been driving my entire life. The newest car I ever bought was a 1998 Formula in 2004 with 84k on it. Everything else has been at least ten years old when I got them.

Replacing that intake manifold is a good thing. Put the 360 heads back on along with the 340 intake, will let that 360 breathe. I have one of those sure grip 7.25 diffs in my 65 barracuda. I had a 71 swinger and loved that car.

That is a really cool car. I grew up in a Portuguese neighborhood, where you could see a lot of those. Mostly 4 doors. As I got older, I realized that they could be an awesome street machine. Nowadays you don’t see them anymore. That’s why I think it’s a classic, that should be restored. Hey man, they’re fading away

My brother sold a 72 for me that looked exactly just like this without the hood scopes and with a 318 4-barrel for $600 In 2008-09 when I lived in another state. It had a bad transmission and by today's standards it was cherry but needed alot of TLC. I would me more than willing to pay full price to undo that mistake but I want that exact car back. Car was sold in Keowee Key in Salem, SC 2008 or 2009.

Such a great car. I got a 1970 dodge dart custom when I was 19 with a done up 318. I loved that car, and to this day, I miss it was my first muscle car. My first car was a 76 Robin egg blue 4 door for Maverick with a 302. So needless to say, the dart was a very good-looking upgrade.

[@muckle8]

The 318 was the best drivetrain ever imho

The bubbling on the C pillars is something I look for when buying an old car. The bubbling is from the original lead they used to attach the quarters at the factory. If you see this, it means the car has original quarters on it. That doesn't mean there isn't a gallon of filler in them, it just means they have never been replaced.

The Edelbrock SP2P is speed equipment history like those camshafts that let you use low octane in high compression muscle engines and Mile-A-More cams from Isky. The gas rationing and cost had these effects on the speed industry.

[@brandoncook3772]

I would like to know what the gas mileage is right now and the gas mileage after the intake manifold swap and of course to know how the power feels after the new intake manifold. Also why the 318 heads instead of the 360 heads ?

Car makes mostly very short local trips, so mileage has been in the high teens. On the road, it 'll do 20 if driven easily.

try to find an edelbrock LD-340 manifold 1/3rd the weight and better perfomance all around as it is a dual plane high rise as was the original 340 intake.

[@geraldscott4302]

You did have to park right in the middle of a mud puddle. I'm assuming it does not have carpet? Does that thing actually have A/C in it? The first time I saw that car I really liked it. Always liked that body style. But my first thought was, that would never work as a daily driver in Phoenix, AZ where it can hit 120 degrees quite often during the long hot summer. I didn't realize it had A/C in it. I'm mostly a Chevy guy, but I have a 1972 Ford Pinto woodgrain wagon that I put a 289/4 speed in out of a 1967 Ford Falcon. I had it repainted by Maaco, and had the woodgrain vinyl replaced by a sign shop that does full body wraps for commercial vehicles (I'm just not a body and paint guy) It turned out nice, and it's a blast to drive. It has a real dual exhaust with glasspacks, and even with a stock cam it sounds great. I love the 4 speed. It gets a lot of looks and compliments. But. It has no A/C. Or heat either for that matter. But here we don't need heat. But because it has no A/C, it is basically undriveable for almost half the year. I've been thinking about rigging up an A/C system in it. There is plenty of room under the dash for an evaporator/fan unit, I should be able to fit a condenser in it, I just need to figure out a way to mount and drive a compressor. The Falcon the engine came out of did not have A/C, or power steering. It has one belt, crank/water pump/alternator. One of the few times I've used an engine out of another car without rebuilding it. Over 6 years and it still runs fine.

Been a fan of the channel since it started. Honestly I completely forgot about this car. Im on project Parts Runner right now. I saved a 83 El Camino last November from the crusher. It is a factory Buick V6 car with an automatic. Been reading and going off of a lot of 80s articles to build that Y6 and I think I got a winner. I put the engine together with the 83 Block and crank with a set of NOS Eagle Rods from the 90s, and Forged Pistons(8.8 to 1 compression) if I did the math right. I then used a set of late 70s 231 reman cylinder heads from Oreilys of all places 😂🤣. because they flowed better than the 80s ones. Topped it off with the 83 Intake all gasket matched with a 280 CFM Holley. Ignition is a GM HEI unit for Marine use. I will experiment with that and the original OEM unit that came with the car. I left the factory Exhaust manifolds on it and just matched them to the gaskets. Im into this engine just under 1k. With the 260 gear and the little 14s on it it should do well as a daily, parts runner, or Jefferson swap meet runner.

I miss driving my first daily driver. Mine is a 68 Dart 270 4DR. It has the 318 with the 2bbl Carter on it with true dual exhaust, with Cherry Bomb glass packs singing out of 3 in stainless tips. The 727 in it works well, and the 8 3/4 works good for an open diff. I have had the car since I was 19. That car has seen some miles. Sadly though, it needs some work now. But, the plan is this year is to take it to a friend's place and us tear into it and get it back on the road. And after seeing this video, I have a lot more motivation to get it done by at least the end of summer.

Ya it sounds like it has decent bottom end. And you can hear it run out of intake at about 4500+. Still a cool daily driver! Mine is an 86 ram 318 with just an Edelbrock intake and 600 4 barrel. Good vid UT

[@clembob8004]

I think the best daily driver would be a 318 with mildly ported heads, 4bbl and mild cam. I have never been able to get very good mpg out of a 360, but 318s are good especially in an A body, and the performance isn't bad either.

[@brokentoolgarage8609]

Always enjoy your channel. I do have one simple question about a daily driver. I have an original 80 Dodge Mirada with a 318. I also picked up a 80 360 4bbl factory intake with the TQ carb , rebuilt the carb. It has been sitting for a couple of years. Do you think I should install it? I have the car since brand new. Definitely not a zippy car but I do drive it once in awhile. Sits in storage most of the time.

[@UncleTonysGarage]

If it was me, personally and the Mirada was all factory original stock, I would probably leave it alone. That said, the factory 360 manifold and TQ would be a sensible addition. It's essentially the same as the police package 318 from the 85ish era.

[@joemiller2629]

@@UncleTonysGarage wow thank for the response ! That is what I really kind of thought, but I grabbed those parts anyway since they were cheap.

[@Terminxman]

I've got an sp2p on a 390 FE in a truck, works perfect for it. But it definitely isn't for high RPM or HP. That combined with what is generally called an "RV" grind cam is a pretty good combo for it.
