The 1970 model year was the fourth one for the fourth generation of Dodge's compact Dart. For that year it got a light styling refresh, mostly to bring the front and rear styling closer to the then-current brand look.
The two basic trim levels were the budget Swinger, named to appeal to younger, hepper buyers, and the Custom which came with more standard equipment, like dual horns and deep-pile carpets. The Custom could also be ordered as a GT to get a floor shifter and bucket seats.
The budget performance option, though, was the Swinger 340.
The SubLime paint, blacked-out hood, and hood pins were all extra cost options on this car. When Car and Driver tested a '69 Dart GTS with the 340, a four-speed, and the 3.91:1 rear end, it dashed to sixty in six seconds flat and polished off the quarter in 14.4 at 99 miles per hour.
