The cars were refreshed in 1970 to make them look closer in appearance to Dodge’s full-size vehicles. While most Swingers came with a six-cylinder or small V-8, you could get the Swinger 340 with more muscle.
In an effort to make the Dart line-up less pedestrian, Dodge dropped the Dart 2-door sedan in 1969 and rolled out the Swinger 2-door hardtop in its place. (east of Reading) and is available here on eBay for $9,500 using the Buy It Now feature. It can be found in Douglassville, Pennsylvania. This 1970 edition of the Dart Swinger looks like a sweet survivor with several items serviced or replaced recently. From 1969 forward, if a Dodge Dart buyer wanted a two-door hardtop, they ordered the Swinger model (complimented by the Dodge Demon in 1971).
The most successful sales period for the Dodge Dart was the generation made between 1967-76 (which was also it’s last until a brief comeback years later).
