Engine/Trans-If I get to keeo the 340 Rebuild it and Back it with an A833
Suspension- S/S Springs, Hi-Jackers in the rear. Probably Dillinger Upper Control Arms.
Interior- All Stock may change to a Black and White Houndstooth insert.

Nice project. Whats your plans for the replacement sheet metal?

Whats the rest of the frame rail look like?
 
Local yard has a stash of rust free 73/74 slant 6 Dusters I'll chop up. Bottom is gone so I'll make a cap for it after I kill all the rust in it.
 
ive seen way worse to start turn out show winners and like those body styles
g/l with it looks like you might have made $ already if you parted it out
 
Me personally, I would take off whats good and scrap the rest of it. For what you going to put into it its not worth it. Buy a rust free body and have it shipped to your your door for way less money. Or one in better shape. Just sayin.......
I,m with 4404spd on this,but being 14 yrs old this car will give Kegan many hrs/months of learning how to work on cars.This car is in about the same shape as the first car I bought at the age of 16 (69 Mustang).I replaced almost every peice on the car except front/rear glass.Just the overall experience of that project helped me later in life.JMO Kegan,s time will come when he can purchase an"Already done car".Good luck.:D
 
some of what i got for it and done today. :happy1:
