For the price, I don't think you could've gone wrong!  It looks like a very nice project.

340 would be perfect... :burnout:     We should get together  :naughty:    Can you believe this car was taken off the road 10 yrs. ago because of a butchered brake job? And really just the rears were jagged.  Cost me 200 bucks and took 2 hrs.  Whoever did it could have done it right with a 1/2 hr. more time :screwy:  It's cool to see it drive around after so long. Nobody wanted to play with it ::)

We have decided on silver as the finished color :grinyes:   Re-doing the interior a two-tone grey. Twin hood scoops with black stripes.rallye wheels.  I'll be getting a new manifold/carb setup someday for the E-bod....I wonder what I'll do with the old stuff... :stirpot: some cheaper headrs/dual pipes.   :burnout:

I'm going to pick up some parts...found a deck lid for 25 bucks!!  I took her out for her first spin in almost 10 yrs. today!   She laid rubber too :bigsmile:


Just alittle update...  replied to an old craigslist ad. next thing you know I'm at some old guy's little pink house full of mopar parts!!! :bigsmile:   At first i was almost alittle scared,but when I looked in his eye's,I knew.  I scored some real nice drip rail chrome (10),the deck lid (25),lot's of small stuff (free).He's got all kinds of stuff/stories!  I'll be back,he's parting out a notchback.Got 4-5 darts,.....and his son has a 70 drop top.  his little backyard was stuffed!

Here's the best pic I can find of what she might look like.  but with no vinyl top.  I kinda' like the old 5 spokes.
