We had a 71 Dart Swinger when I was in high school....way back in the 70's. I learned to drive in that car. It had a 318 and an automatic transmission, but it was fairly light so it didn't need tons of horse power to go pretty good. They were not considered muscle cars back then, but a family coupe. Always thought these were pretty good looking cars, and a nice set of wheels and wider tires would really set them off....even a set of factory Magnum 500's makes them look much more aggressive.

SWEET! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy... No fresh paint necessary.

Fantastic daily driver just the way it is. I wouldn't worry with paint.

Honestly all I'd do is buff it that's all

Glad I ran across this video! I'm sort of digging the fact it's not perfect cosmetically. But the engine compartment is perfect and that's hat counts. Nice example! That color is nice (our '72 Cutlass was close to that color). Brought back memories of being in our '70 Swinger 340 4 spd. (in light blue/blue interior with lighter blue rear deck stripe and flat black double scooped hood, carpet delete) when my Dad bought it new off the showroom floor. Cost new was just over $3K on window sticker. FAST car. Thanks for sharing it.
