1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

1969 Dodge Dart Description

You're bidding on a solid 1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340. It has the original numbers matching 340 engine, however, the transmission is a built 904 instead of the correct 727 transmission. It has the"489" 8 3/4 rear endwith a 3.23 posi unit.I have foldercontaining the original build sheet and numerous receipts dating back to the 1990's.Based on the records, the car was redoneand painted red around 1990.I believe that the original color scheme was yellow with a tan interior.

I will address the "good andbad" points of the car. Please ask any questions before you place your bid. The vehicle has been sitting for several years and it's being sold in an "as-is" condition.

It's a solid car that drives fairly well considering it hasreproduction bias-ply tires. I replaced the following items on the car:

Dash/temp bezels

Edelbrock650 AVS

KYBgas shocks

Gas tank and sending unit

Distributor, cap, rotor, points, condenser, spark plugs

I haveother parts that will go with the car to include (4) full wheel covers, bumper guards, rear defroster unit, an Edelbrock RPM intake, and a period correct Carter AVS carburetor.

So here's the "bad".......one of theissues I've had with this vehicle is the fluctuating temp and gas gauges.I replaced what I could.....I know that there are some MOPAR guys that could comment on that issue.

The rear end......the rear end appears to be whining and there's a "clunk" when you place it in gear depending on the RPM speed. The posi unit works since it will lay down two lines if you run it hard.....

The driver's side door is not properly aligned as noted in the photograph.

The trunk is solid but there are come areas that have surface corrosion.....no holes or rusted areas.

Ibelieve the engine has a bigger cam than the factory 340.......I replaced the carb but have had limited success in tuning the engine perfectly.

Thelights, turn signals, radioand brakes all work.....butI would recommend replacing the brakes.

Overall,it's a solid vehicle that requires some fine tuning.........there's notmany in this condition. Good luck bidding!!!
