So, why did I buy this old car? Well, if you have followed my blog for awhile, you know I have a thing for high power cars. That is something you don’t hear everyday – a classic muscle car traded in for a new SUV. Believe it or not, the previous owner had traded his 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger in for a new Dodge Durango SUV. It was located at the Afton Dodge Chrysler Jeep dealer. The 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger as she looks today. That was the longest drive I have ever made in the Dart. Afton lies just south of the Teton Mountains in southwestern Wyoming.
After 6 years the Dart is finally actually usable! I purchased the car in October of 2014 about 230 miles north of my home in a little town called Afton, Wyoming.
