Finalized a deal on trading my land yacht Polara for a 72 Dodge Dart Swinger w/ 318 4spd, .30 over, mild cam, dual side exit cherry bombs. Time to learn how drive manual.

What are your plans for the Swinger??? Are you happy with the trade??? Bill

You've never driven a stick? Only reason I have a TF in my Dart is my legs are getting old and I can't handle heavy clutches anymore. I even considered a boosted clutch.

I'm 20 and figured it would be a more authentic/exciting experience. I either pick up on it quick or I blow through some clutches. https://moparforums.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif

And pro-tech I plan on doing some work on the inside and outside. The factory rallyes will stay for now but once I swap gear ratios (2.70-somethings in there now) I will fix up the bubbling areas and ditch the cheap hemi orange respray for a nice cobalt blue with stripe possibly going to an ice white. It'll be some time but she should turn out nice.

my dad had 2 diff 1977 new yorkers, white in color. one 4 dr one 2dr. 440 of course. he had a front tag made "BIG FOOT". he was very up set at the stop of making 440s. but VERY MAD when he found out that 4 cyl engines was being made in the old 440 plant.

nice! I'm a yacht guy, myself, but i'm more into comfort and low end power than speed.

sweet ride.
