beautiful...I love the split bumpers. If it were mine, I would fix all rust and do all body work, put on a full hotchkis TVS suspension, some nice wheels and tires.

The body is straight and rust free.
Suspension work may be in the cards.
Along with performance mods.

However, first I got to fix my truck.
Seems 6' of water reeks havoc on just about everything electronic and mechanical.
Spent the whole day trying to get it road worthy again.

Cecil. Same car I had as my first car. I can assure you high HP cars are not great cars for 16 year olds. I did a lot of stupid stuff in my Camaro but never got caught. My son will be driving he can't get in much trouble with.

Good luck though, Your projects always end up really cool though.

Where are the GOOD pics I took?!

Should be a good project. I did the same with my dad on the 69.

Personally I wouldnt make it a first car for your son, its gonna either get him killed or end up on a wrecker.

Keep it for a while and give it to him when hes older.

on a plus side you'll know what he's up too, my first car was a 69 that my father had driven as a daily driver for many years and he had people all over tampa who could recognize me. shitty thing was someone had a clone of ours and I once got blamed for his hot rodding
