Father-son project. Driver restoration. Having a lot of fun:

BTW did not pay nearly that for it

Amazing what people will ask for at a show and what they'll
take when they have to drag it home...........

More updates soon!

I don't see the rust, seems like a decent, solid car. Why did you leave the engine bay black? You had the engine out, the perfect time to paint is with everything cleared out!
These are great cars and it looks like a father/son project. I like to see that! Good luck with the car.

It's in the normal spots. Quarters, rear window. Just covered with bondo by the PO, haha. Not to bad. Bones are solid. He'll be learning about body work later. Definitely father/son. See that smile in the second picture? Thanks!

Motor never came out. In car cam and head swap. Not gonna lie. Took the easy way out. Gotta balance teaching patience with common sense and actually enjoying these cars.

That is an uncommon style, too. Far more 73-76 Dodge Dart 2 doors are out there compared to the Scamp. It is cool sometimes to have a car that isn't as common as a Camaro or Rustang.
