That would make a fun project car.  And with the limited rust you would be $$$ ahead.

Sorry for hijacking the thread, just mainly curious if you lived in my area. It's always nice to meet more local Mopar people.

Cudabob,

Yup I live in Spokane, and I agree they are nice cars and very expensive too, lol. Which is why I'm building my own and not buying one built (plus it's more fun).

I know there is more as well, but that's what I can think of right now. Plus this website keeps intermittently freezing on me when I try to reply, lol. Is there a way to turn off the moving icons, if so that would be awesome, lol
