question about what project to look for
So buddy of mine has an srt-8 engine/trans/ecu full setup from an srt-8 charger
i want to drop it in an old mopar
got someone with a 68 plymouth vip i could get really easy that already runs and drives with a 360 in it, but idk if its what i want to use
any advise on what cheap mopar rollers are? and where to find them?
i dont even know the lineup for mopar muscle cars in the 60s so any help would be appreciated
thanks

Welcome!
Look around for a Plymouth Valaint. They are the "value line" of the Dodge Dart and can be had for pretty cheap. Usually they came with a slant 6 motor.

Here are some 68's:http://www.allpar.com/history/plymou...uths-1968.html
Like it says highend, I like the Hot Rods but old luxury modernized is the way I would like to cruise and with the SRT power you sure could go around alot of unsuspecting new cars. I love the idea.

Welcome aboard , Get a fun one that you really like and go for the gusto 
Dart,Duster,Demon not all 60ish but wild cars to go with and also the 65 coronet is a awsome body style in my book if you could find one

yea girlfriends dad ownes mopar city up in illinois
hopefully will be a good summer project and will take the 8 hour drive up there to see him in it :P
ive always been a ford guy with a few camaro's here and there, miata, plymouth laser turbo, and might as well try mopar!
well thanks all! think i found a few around here, send 3-4 emails to people on CL
found a 1972 scamp thats in excellent shape for 2000$ and it runs and drives, itll hurt me a lot to pull original motor out...
found 2 late 60 model darts that just needed body work/paint
only duster i found is an old friend of mine use to do a lot of tradin with, he said 400$ come get it, but it needs a LOT of work
ima keep looking till i find a good deal!
also, guy has the full IRS from that SRT cost wise would hurt my wallet a lot!
but that would be a killer ride if its even possible
