Joes69Runner Intro

[Joes69Runner]

I just got mine back after being at a buddy's shop for over a year getting the body ready for paint. I was getting pretty discouraged, but the drive home made it wrth the wait.Now for Springtime and the paint.

I wish it would be ready by spring. I need to weld in the rest of the inner fenders. I need a driver side fender, door hinges, 2 factory cut quarters annd floor boards. Looks like a pretty big list.

Welcome from Ct Joe. That looks like a great project and it's great that you want to finish something that your dad had started to do.

go grab a six pack of your favorite beverage, and I'll tell you the tale of this little project.
as far as door hinges, A Body hingers are the same, as are 4 door B Bodies. And since the doors are smaller, the hinges are usually in GC.Used to be $5 in the boneyards. Check FBBO (for b bodies only) moparts, usually fenders for sale on those sites, and usualy at good prices, but the shipping can get pricey. I've gotten fenders thru FedX under $50 each, and have shipped fenders thru the post office for the same. and Greyhound ships too. Or buzz down to the Mopar Nats, plenty of parts and a variety of prices.

nice paint is over rated. no worries on scratches or chips, just fun.

Welcome from Alberta, Canada. The engine looks just right, what parts do you need? You never know what is available unless you ask...
