'70 Dart Swinger, front valance
« on: June 11, 2006, 07:26:54 PM »

Having a hard time finding one around here (N. E. Oklahoma).  Are there any other years of Darts that use this same valance? (Sheet metal under the front bumper...think Im calling it the correct name.)   Still learning about these A-bodies and not sure what bumpers, sheet metal etc. can swap from one to the other. I saw one on E-bay that's a fiberglass copy but wasn't sure if that's the way to go or not.  This is strictly a strip car so I don't really NEED one but it would make it look a lot nicer.  Anybody used the 'glass repro or found a suitable substitute, short of making one from scratch?

Seho, I have a used valance that will need some bodywork.  If you still need it its yours for the cost of shipping.  Bill
