New Mopar guy.
Been a member just reading post for a while now, but thought I might introduce myself finally. My name is Chris, and I have a 1973 Dodge Dart Swinger with a slant six I purchased for $1500.00 a while back. Runs and drives. Pretty much rust free. The car came from arizona. Right now it is ripped apart as I am trying to get it ready for a fresh paint job. I am a painter at a body shop, so I have the know how, it's just trying to go work on it after a full days work is sometimes hard.
I'm hoping to have it on the road this summer though. It will look alot meaner than it is, but that slant six will do me good till I can decide what to drop in its place. Well, thats about it. Here is a pic of the car before tear down.

I have actually thought about that. Got a friend with a turbo sitting in his garage that he is not going to use. It would be pretty crazy

Looks like it'll be fun!
I think Mopar Muscle mag. did a slant six buildup and got 320Hp NA. So with the turbo would be even cooler! And not something you see all the time either.Benjamin
