Ignorant College Student--Need Advice!

you should post a few pis of it as well as what it has for engine, trans, rear diff etc. That will make a huge difference in what its worth. A factory V8 is worth more than a slant 6 due to production numbers. A GT is worth more. Is it rusty anywhere like floor pan, trunk, rear window, frame rails etc? Does it start? Can you drive it? Disk or drum?

If you are a "starving student" then it may not be a great idea as old cars are money pits. Parts are expensive and 64's are not on the super desirable list yet, a nice one might bring $10K but its no 'Cuda. Look on ebay and CL to see what they bring in your area to determine if you can make any $$$. If you paid $600 and its rust free, only needs a carb and muffler, then you might get $4000 and make some cash. If you paid $3500 and floors are toast, trans bad and burns oil then thats a different story.

Share what you have but be prepared for "build it" or go "pro touring" from some people as these are mopar fans here and will encourage you to go for it. Just be realistic and either bail out now or be prepared to spend some cash.

BTW, It is encouraging that you are interested in classic cars, or even cars in general, so many kids these days seem to have no interest in them at all, my 27 year old son could care less about anything that burns fuel but I have a 6 year old Daughter that loves my old Mopars and hangs out in the shop with the guys and wants to know it all. What ever happens with the 64, keep thinking about cars and when the time is right, one will find you.

A bumper should be around $100 for a nice driver quality one. Look on CL and on here, you will find one soon. Post a "wanted" and somebody will have one.
