First project buy - can someone help me with some advice and/or opinions?

...I was thinking Canadian ..I was thinking about the salt free roads in Alberta and Sask....Ooops..my bad..

I have been there, don't it and have the pics with the resto gig....I have no desire to be chasing the rust bug in another car..it seems to me that when the car gets the rust bug, it is very hard to get it out.

Rather then starting a really big restore..perhaps you could get a car that you can do a rolling resto on..all work and no play does not go over with a family assuming you have on..this is coming from my expeience with a family. My last car was a turnkey..I just prettied it up but was able to drive it from no salt to salt so to speak. My first was when I was single..I put in a lot of hours..but it did't impact anyone.

The duster, my kid's car is rust free, I wouldn't have bought it if is was..we tinkered with it last year and plan to do a bunch this year..I happen to love doing this...

I know what you say about years..my fav is a 69 charger r/t ..b5 with white vinyl roof ..it was my buds car..he also had a 71 and 73 which I wasn't crazy about..yes the cut off is probably 1970...however, buying one for a resto mod with the kids just isn't in the cards..and it has been noticed that to get in at the groud floor where the values are going up is the a-body..

Regardless of what ever opinion we give to you ..you know it is worth what you paid for it and the bottom line is you will buy a MOPAR in the condition and the price point you are comfortable with..btw, I will be doing powder coating and a very good price..

Can you pm me with your e-mail addy.
