NEAT PROJECT
-- Welcome -- Cool project - not many of these around. -- I've had a few 60s Mopars - see my albums. - I'm not a engine builder or a body man, (just a Mopar guy) but possibly I can help here and there. -- Good luck with the project.

Looks cool,
I've got a friend with a 62, it's a E/SA car and has run a legal 10.60. What are your plans for the car?

fix all the rust, freshen up the 383 and maybe street/strip. and if the body work is good enough take it to some car shows. even if body work isn't that great, may still take it to car shows. white hides alot of flaws. i want to sell the 383 and put in a 440, but one of my sons wants to keep the motor. my cousin told me it's a numbers matching 383 for a 68 roadrunner.

You could stay with the 383 but add a stoker kit. I like father son projects, how old are your boys?

If timing isn't a problem, then wait and go to "Spring Carlisle" in Carlisle, Pa. 4/20 thru 4/24/2016. -- And/Or -- "Chryslers At Carlisle" 7/15 thru 7/17/2016.. -- The July event is probably your best chance to find something. -- There's also a big events in Charlotte N.C. (Charlotte Auto Fair) 4/7 thru 4/10/2016, and "The Mopar Nationals" in Columbus 8/12 thru 8/14/16 -- You should find something at one of these events. -- Sound like you guys are in Ohio, if so then all of these places are reasonably within your reach.
