Oh my - you lucky devil. Might try YearOne. The 340 is a great engine. Has lots of potential. You don't find many 340 powered Darts around so hold onto it. Don't let anyone talk you into putting in a big block. A smaller car like the Dart with a built up 340 is plenty quick and has more value with the original engine under the hood. I run a speed shop built 340 in my '74 Charger. Am fond of the small blocks myself. Good luck and please post some pics. We would love to see it (even needing body work).

Swinger's don't have a dart embem on the front fender and you're missing your Bumble Bee stripe. Of course the car may have been altered. It looks like you have the 340 4 barrel hood.

Paddockparts.com is similar to Year One. I've used both. A 69 Dart is easier to find body parts for than a 68 Charger. Good luck.
