        Hi all. I just joined a couple weeks ago. I've had a few mopars over the years but this is my first e-body. It is a lot rougher than I thought it was when I bought it.Of course 10 years under a plastic tarp in S.E. Tx. didn't help it any. I got it in a deal with a 340 engine for my swinger. Paid $1000 for them both so I think I can put a few bucks in it now. Currently have all the floors and wheel wells out getting ready to weld the new metal in. I just bought a 440 six pack motor for it.Lots of plans and limited time to work on it so it'll be a few yrs till I get it done. Hoping to get lots of info from y'all.Thanks,Ron

    sounds like a great project and the price sounds like a steal, especially getting the 340 with it. you are in the right place, tons of knowledge here and several e-body experts that are more than willing to help. don't be shy about asking for advice

Should I keep it black? Was thinking plum crazy.

[Cuda Cody]

Do you think it was an original TX9 black car?  If you're not sure, paint it anything you want....   Plum crazy is a great color! 

[truckinman466]

If I'm reading the fender tag right,it is all original color and trim Originally a 318 car

Oh!  Black is a pretty rare and highly desirable color!     But it's your car, so make it any color you like.  And enjoy it!
