Hi Guys im active on the for a bodie site , but im about to pick up 3 cars ( mostly only 1 , the best ) for a future cheap project, one of my favorite model always been a 62 to 65 max wedge car , more a plymouth guy but doesnt really matter : i bought 3x 1964 dodge 330s for parts , and i want to make a fun ride , i have a 71 cuda that the body is already done and ive seen that everything can be saved ! But its $$$# when you dont do the work yourself . The bad news is that theyre no much interest for those years : best idea would be to strip the 3 cars and cut the 2 door to one day swap the panels on a solid 4 door car....i have enough parts to make a good one , but need to have a strong and solid fondation.

Welcome from Missouri!!!
 
$$+$$+$=$$,$$$$. If don't do metal big bucks. Good luck. I don't mean it sarcastically.
 
I will have everything...except a solid shell....they are hard to find the 2 doors ( even 4 doors ) and i dont know what metal structure is compatible ( amd etc ) theres not much metal repros for these 62 to 65 mopars....

There is someone that has converted a 4 door to a 2 door and documented the process. It was either on here or on youtube. Search around and welcome to the 64 club.

Edit: here's a detailed thread

My first car was a 4 dr 66 Belvedere and always wanted a 2 dr sedan. For some reason, the hardtops never appealed to me much no matter what year. Without knowing the shape of the 3 cars, can't really make a recommendation on what to do....
 
SOME pieces are being re-popped.But not much.
 
Amd was reproducing some but recently discontinued some items. No full quarters available for dodge unfortunately. I'd love to find a 330 around here. They are scarce.
 
You have far more motivation than me. Good luck with your project !
 
Of course i would love to cut them....to have the most stuff but if someone as a solid donor i would think about it seriously....
