1970 Dodge Dart Swinger review from North America
"A sleek looking reliable 2-door cruising at 75 mph down the highway!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Really nothing has gone wrong, just routine maintenance items. I have had to replace the radiator, starter, battery, shocks, alternator, tires, but hey, one would have to after 20 or so years!
General comments?
The 225 slant six is an extremely durable engine! So is that smooth-shifting Torqueflite automatic transmission, shifts better and smoother than my 1998 Honda!!!!!
