Just thought I would share with all of you.

BTW used to have a '70 Dodge Dart Custom with the slant six. It was that nice pale yellow in color with black interior, with green cloth inserts on the seats. Someday I will have another Dart, someday...
Well TODAY is SOMEDAY!!! Just picked up an original owner 1975 Dart Swinger with the 225 slant six!!!
I am ecstatic. The paint is old and needs refreshing and the vinyl top needs to be replaced, and there is some surface rust and probably more due to the vinyl top that I will have to take care of, but overall is it straight, solid, and complete. Even have original registration, manuals, window sticker, etc.
So, this will be a great candidate for the roller method. I will be sticking with a gloss white to keep factory look to it.
I think I want to swap in an OD transmission, and will have to search to see if there is any sort of fuel injection I could run with this engine.
I want this to be a dependable cruiser/driver that if I want to drive it to San Francisco (about 5-6 hours) or down to San Diego (three hours) I could with ease, and at modern highway speeds.
Just had to share in my excitement...
