welcome to FBBO build it and have fun with it
Coming along nicely, doing everything I can with what I have..Some good 'ol elbow grease goes a long way.. There's easier ways to do than crawling around under it but it's what I gotta do for now. I'm a good painter and I'll refurbish everything that's in good enough shape to. Recently retired and this is just what I wanted to do. Working on getting my shop built on my land, ..then it's really on!Welcome aboard from NJ, where we grow rust, LOL! Thanks for posting the pics; you can post pics of the Scamp also as we like all things Mopar!
Thanks brother...Say, you ain't seen 'Ol Crocodile Dundee runnin round anywhere have ya....lol..jk mateg'day from Australia
Absolutely agree, but I'm gonna dig in and crunch it out, where there's a will there's a way right.. my biggest decision is to make it an "I'm on it" build or stretch it out...I won't know till I actually get under the car and all over it with my own eyes. I hate seeing our classics disappear...Welcome to the "Darkside" to FBBO from NorCal Sierras
Looks like a money pit, no offense intended
it's just an honest observation
I'm sure you 'should' know already too, it will need 'every aspect touched',
rust repairs, stripping, body, paint, glass, interior, trim, lights, wiring, gauges
fuel system, plumbing, brakes, steering/bushings/suspension components
& all of the drivetrain/engine/trans/rear end, wheels & tires etc. etc. etc.

It could make a good racecar candidate or restomod
Low, fat tires tucked, nice radical sounding engine/exhaust note,
ground effects, air dam & spoiler etc.
I 'personally' really like those years as Resto-Mods
probably cheaper/easier (& IMO more fun) to go that route too
but;
I'm a lil' bias
but;
I also voted "Build It"

retirement has it's privileges, you have the time
the $$$ (?),
the knowledge/skills, tools & a place to perform all of it
& a proper budget is all up to & on you
Good Luck, Happy MoParing
