Rowdy 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger with Built 360 V8

dodge dart swinger 360 magnum

Today we have one very cool Mopar for the A-body fans. What started life as a Hemi Orange 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger powered by a small block 318 has been transformed into one menacing street beast. The build was executed more than 15 years ago, but the ’72 Dart still looks and runs great.

Variety of upgrades have been installed during the build including a well massaged 360 Magnum engine capable of 425hp. The power is sent through 727 Reverse-manual valve body trans and 8.75 differential with Richmond 4.30 gears. The rowdy V8 sound is coming from 2.5” exhaust with Hooker headers.

Check out the video filmed while the A-body Mopar was still for sale at the Chicago Car Club.
