Hello All,

This is a very cool and active forum from what I can tell so far. Hope to gain knowledge and enjoy the company of others and their mopars!

So last year I was bored with no new projects or hobbies to entertain myself. I decided to be impulsive and bought this 64 belvedere about 85 miles from my house.

Used my neighbor's truck and his flat bed and hauled it back.

Once I got it back into my drive way, I was just saying to myself, what did I just get myself into! Haha!

Now I am deciding on what to do to make it fun. It has a poly 318 with push start automatic. Minimal rust. Has that nice stance. Old primer paint. Everything is pretty much unmolested besides the upholstery.

I really want to cruise in it and take it out often to grocery store, weekends, days off, etc. Then there is me saying that I should put a big engine in it and burn some rubber.

Just wanted to share my project to you guys and bounce some ideas off as well. I am happy to hear some suggestions!
Thanks for looking!

Nice car! Welcome from central Illinois.
Could drop a 408" stroker 360 in it and have plenty of power to tool around town in!

Nice Car!

Since it has a small block in it - could put a 408" bored and stroked 360 in it without too much headache - plenty of power to get around in!
