That thing looks more like a parts car than a project too me :rotfl: :rockon:

Poor ol Mopar :cry:


Wait whats that red one behind the junk pile parts car?

Looks like a prize some one once bought long ago and stuck away, and almost forgot about. Now there's the car too build, No rust and very little body work needed plus rumor has it its a matching numbers Big block car!
Plus I heard it had buckets and console interior with the Rally dash thats a sweet car!
Someone once told me that Big block Mopars were some of the most powerful cars ever built and the coolest.

Not bagging your white one (Yes I am!!!!!!!!!) but its the Red one you aught to build :drink:
Boy I bet if you took the two of them and built one you'd have a sweet ride in no time.....
