Check for rot in the torque boxes and in the front frame rails just under the battery box and window wash bottle. Next check the floor pans. If the interior is black that would be a great start. As for the motor swap you will need a Motor,tranny,engine mounts,tranny mount,frame cross member and many other little things. If you buy it we can talk!

yeah... what jim said. but along the same lines... if it is registered and driving legally... buy it anyhow. 150 bucks for a driver ain't bad at all... if it turns out to be a POS part it out for fun and profit!!!!!!!!------------------ scott todds' dad MCCI nj state rep 1972 4door-250 c4 1970 302,c4, firehawks+ansens.
