'69 Swinger 340

Whatta neat car...

I like it. Doesn't seem to be too high asking price ? Wrong color on the engine, missing the dodge emblem on the trunk, jack instuctions
decal in trunk wrong location. Still I have a soft spot for 69 swingers so I like it. Did I already say that already ? Lol.

Would like to see a pic of the fender tag, very late build. Second orange engine I have seen, but obviously is has been repainted at some point, even 3K mile engines don't look that good, I have documented a couple low mile A-Body's. Like Noel said, some things not quite right... It makes me cringe the way this stealer molests the car in the video, it's not a woman!

One other thing that I don't recall is the rubber floor mat didn't have a heel pad on both drivers and passengers foot/floor area ??

Without seeing it in person I think it is a 113,000 mile restored car...

There are a few things that differ in condition from my 17,000-mile '69 RR:
Dart's engine & compartment are a lot nicer - no chips, stains, mostly nicer-than-factory finishes.
Steering wheel woodgrain much more worn than mine is.
Yes, the "DODGE" trunk lid nameplate is missing, but not necessarily definitive of mileage.
The silver being rubbed - or polished - off the headlamp bezels where they meet the grille.
Could be my monitor, but that color seems brighter and a bit darker than the Y2 on my car.
I can't recall - 45 years later - if my '69 Swinger (318 WSS car) had rubber or carpet - but haven't heard of it being reproduced.

It could well be an older restoration with careful care but added mileage...and now with dealership pricing.

Here is a 16,000 mile unrestored engine and interior/dash

My Swinger is a Sept 69 LA build and the rubber floor mat has heel,foot pad on both sides.

And here is a 2900 original mile 340 Demon, although it already had a change to a 72 carb...

KSJ's car, has known history back to 1990-1993 or so. Bought from original owners. IIRC, less that 60K miles then. And not much more now.

OE rubber floor mat. I was there when it was pulled out.

The yellow car looks like that new term for "survivor".. meaning older resto/repaint of a nice car to begin with.

had 64k miles when I bought it. Now has 76k

Nice car.

I just bought a 69 Swinger GTS....The engine is a turquoise...It's a 340 car..

I knew a dude who had a 69 road runner GTX. I believe the engine was orange iirc.
Sorry I couldn't resist.

Ted is an A-Body rookie, but he did good on the GTS. He sent me pics but the fender tag us too blurry, can't wait to see it!

My 11,500 mile 1969 GTS engine.

Too much for an improperly restored car.

Great engine pic! That's a nice engine compartment!

Dang that looks good!!! All Ma Mopar

Funny how the cast-aluminum timing covers shed their paint - usually there's some there, but I guess that top surface is more susceptible to pressure-washing ?
That and the valve covers always seem to give up their paint first.

I looked at the car for sale...Mine says GTS on the door panels...Mine is just driver quality at a lot less than the Hemmings car...

I know what you mean
