My dad pulled me out of the mud with a chain hooked to the from bumper in 1988 when I was 19. That's what bent the bumper.   I've still got some of the parts for that car.

Yes, Ug was also from a large family.  She had three sisters: Pudge, Man, and one that didn't talk so well, Mumb.  :D

Its a pretty plain 68, it has a 318/904 currently in it, but VIN shows it was a factory 383-2bbl. No a/c, manual brakes, column shift/buddy seat. Body is actually in pretty good shape, found a couple of previous repairs I want to re-do. Tail panel is pretty rough, but got a new AMD tail panel, and new front valance with it. Worst part is the floor pans, It sat outside for a few years with no windshield, so the floor pans are pretty rusty, and the left side of the trunk has some rust, but nothing major. I don't think the car has ever had any collision damage, for a 45 year old car, I'm impressed with all the lines/gaps, and how the doors, trunk, etc. close

It's an XP with no fender tag, so its a blank canvas to do anything. When I start on it, I want to start by repairing the rust, and work on everything mechanical and electrical first. I think I just want to make a nice driver/cruiser out of it. Like I said it currently has a 318, I picked up a low mile factory 4 bbl 360 with a 727 trans out of a '79 Chrysler 300 back a few months ago, thinking about using that engine.

One thing for sure, when it comes time to do the interior, I want it to be white...I love white interiors, and that's what I miss most about the 73 Rallye I had, was the white interior.
