Hi guys. I'm new to Mopar and old cars, but definitely not new to working on my toys. I picked this up to be a project for the wife and I, as well as it being a daily driver for me for a while. She's in decent shape overall. the body needs paint, but it is straight with a bit of surface rust. The interior needs quite a bit of TLC, but this IS a project.

The motor is a Slant 225 that the PO did a half-assed Super Six swap. Most everything is there, but it's not quite right.

I did a photo session for a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago. She wanted a sort of Rockabilly style so I suggested we use my car as a prop. I think it went pretty well. What do you guys think?

I look forward to learning as I go and getting this girl (the car) back to the shape she deserves to be in!

Looks like a solid project!

The first photo demonstrates great composition. Too many primer patches though. They draw the eye away from your subject. That photo could be excellent once the car doesn't have quite as many contrasting irregularities.

Looks like very good work to me. :D Of course my Dad's the Pro-Photographer of the family. I take snap shots. :roll: Drives him crazy when I take a snap shot that works. I've taken three decent photos in forty years. It may be that drives him crazier than my incidental successes.

Welcome here! :D
