1970 Swinger
In 1973 I was working for a company that had it's own credit union. I guy told me a lunch one day that he had won in a silent auction a 1970, 340, 4 speed, Swinger. It had been road hard had wiring burned in the dash and shifter fork broken in the transmission with a lot of rash on the body. The thing was he did not want to go thru with the purchase from the C/U. His winning bid was $272.28. I did not have any money so I applied for a loan with the C/U and they loaned me the money and I bought the car. I already had a 1972 swinger but it was a 318 plain nice car. I could not pass this car up. I fixed the wiring and transmission fork. Would that car run!!!! Had a lot of fun with it. That said I sold it for $400.00 just enough to move into my first apartment.

Right after I posted yesterday it was down again, I don't think it's getting better.
Where is everybody?
