Ray, TJ, and Chris....went yesterday and looked at the buddies 69 Dodge Dart Swinger Black/Blue an all original car with documented 40K miles, 340 4 speed.
He wants to touch up the engine bay and clean it up.
I told him to keep it in the survivor mode and just clean it up. Told him to run it like that for a couple years, then decide if he wants to repaint it, etc..
It looks really good for a 50 year old car...no rust, solid.
