WTB: Mopar project near Newark, DE

[fzmax]

Looking for an interesting project car for my daughter. The Valiant convertible I got for her simply needs too much to be road worthy and we will begin parting it soon.

She likes early A's, but also likes other A and B bodies; E-bodies are out of her price range. No four doors or wagons (kids these days!) Engine and transmission not important, she has to rebuild them anyway. Would rather have a slant or 318 car than an original 340 car due to cost.

She's not afraid to hang quarters, floors or frame repair, but I will steer her away from previously (poorly) repaired cars. No back-halfed race cars.

She's willing to pay around $2500 for a starter, I can help her if the car is right.

I have a 65 Dart Gt original V8 / auto project with very little rust that will be up for sale soon. I'm in California but will be more than happy to assist with shipping

There are 2 65 barracuda project cars for sale 2 miles east of Gap, PA on Rt30 on the left hand side heading eastbound. One is a 273 4 speed car with bucket seats gold on gold. Nice interior. Needs quarters, doors, lower fenders and inner fenders were cut for a header setup. He wanted 500 for it. No engine, think it was A/C. Also has a 65 sitting next to it which is red and in better shape. I can snap a couple pictures if you like.

Thanks Charlie! We'll look at them this weekend.

That would likely be a great car, but shipping would probably kill the deal

what about the thousands potentially saved in bodywork? these cars being unitized, there will always be hidden rot/corrosion in seams of any northeastern car that was driven in winters.
actually hope those in pennsylvania work for you - sound like neat projects.
