Trying to help my son find a father/son project car. His budget is very low and he realizes it will be a long term project. Only criteria I have been made aware of is that he would really prefer a 4 speed car. This is going to be one of those situations where someone has an old car in a barn that will probably never be restored by the owner, but would like to see it back on the road eventually, while helping to get another young person interested in the hobby. This would not be a project to flip. If you know of a car that fits this description and the owner wants a little jingle in their pocket, please let me know. Thank you!
 
Would he be interested in a 66 Plymouth Belvedere 2dr hard top? The floors, rails and most of the car is pretty solid. I have the quarter patches that it needs and lots of parts. I do not have the engine or transmission. It was a column shift auto. For a low budget project car it would be a good car. I just want to get out of it what I have invested. $2000.00 had to sell my 440/727 I was going to put in it so I have lost interest. I have all of the chrome needs to be redone but I have it. I would love to see this car get finished. This is a 383 car and has a 3:23 open 8.75 in it.

I have 20 or so project cars to choose from that are A and B bodys. also a 73 imperial 2 door that would be easy to get back on the road and was on the road 2 years ago. also have a 69 power wagon truck project.
 
I have a 73 Roadrunner with a 340 and a 4 speed. It is rough but I was going to save it. You can't get quarter panels for this body style yet, only patch panels. Come to think of it I don't remember seeing any repo fenders either. That means you have to bend your own pieces parts or find good used. Not sure you and your son would want to take this on. I had to drive to MO just to get a bench seat that wasn't trashed. Side note, as you know very low budget and Mopar don't often appear in the same sentence.
 
I have a Big Bad Blue Javelin 4sp with a parts car. The BBB doesn’t have a motor but the other car has a 343
 
Got a 72 charger 318/auto/ac... I needs motor and trans etc. However No Rust -
All metal work already done. Solid as a rock southern car. Blank slate to make it what you want!

I don't have a body, but have a spare 383 with '69 date if interested.
 
I don't know of a car for sale, but if you find one and need an engine to rebuild I have 383 and 440 blocks, cranks, heads and misc. parts for a engine build.
