Thoughts on this car for a project with my pops

Hey thanks a ton for the insight. It comes down to a fun thing to do with pops, so no matter what I am sure it will be successful. The one he got is going to be a ton of fun. 66 4 sp previously swapped to a 318. Now I want to find one too!

Tad those pictures are pretty neat, and I appreciate you taking the time to share.

And thanks Barbee for your two cents too.

Darn rust. Doing mechanical is way more fun as you both mentioned, but the allure of getting a body for cheap is of course tempting since it saves more money for the fun parts.

Is the fact that it is body/engine vin matching anything special?
