I purchased my Swinger in 11/08, trailered it home, drove it less than two miles, and then started tearing it apart. I replaced the driver's side front apron, both front floor pans, the quarters, and the rear inner fenderwheels. I did the body work but had a friend shoot the Inca Gold Poly. I had a professional do the vinyl top. I did all the interior work except the seat covers. All the mechanicals were rebuilt or replaced by me. Here are a few videos of the '75 Swinger.

The engine just after break in:

The interior/exterior:

Almost done, after three years!

If you would like more pictures, videos, or have questions/comments please let me know.

Thanks,

Chris

Cool. Not a color you see very often.

Wow Looks great! Good job on the restoration. That is a very uncommon color but goes good with the vinyl top.
