Once my 68 Barracuda is done, I'll have my old 318 sitting around without a home. ....

I'm thinking I'll rebuild it myself (instead of sending it out like my 392). Maybe even a stroker kit because they're realitivly cheap considering the gains.....

But, it's still gonna need a home!
Something kinda cheap. .....absolutely a Plymouth (For some reason I like Plymouths over Dodge). Maybe a Scamp? Or...?
I'm on the fence about what model and even what year.

I'd love a B-Body, but the prices are stupid....

Thoughts and suggestions?

This down the road about a year or more because I still need to re-assemble the Barracuda. .....

Snag a Dodge Aries station wagon, stuff it in there. Limo tint, tubbed rear big meats, Pro street look!

I'd think both a Scamp or a truck wouldn't be too hard to find.....
I'm liking the idea of a truck. .....war wagon!

A truck can actually be useful....and be a toy.
 
74-80 Ramcharger or Trailduster. Lots of them out in the Left Coast. There's not much too them, as far as restoration goes, mostly normal rust areas and they make every patch panel you need.

Pop the top off and cruise that 318.

I would recommend a Duster. 72-75. There are rollers out there for decent prices. I believe the Duster is the best bang for the buck in the Mopar world? While still decent looking? My '74. Note bumper painted as body? Takes some of the plain Jane away?
