My initial thought is to buy as fully restored or complete originals as you can afford. More thoughts and some links to price guides and auction results are on this page: http://1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/whatworth.html so you can see what similar examples were sold or advertised. Other than that, have fun and focus on making new Mopar friends and enjoying the '62 - '65 Mopars. :) Thanks, Gary H. > -------Original Message------- > > Dear Mopar Guys, > I do not have a lot of experience, but thinking about starting a > collection of 62-65 Mopars. > I have seen a lot of great restorations of many of your cars in recent > pictures. > > Below are some pics of another California car I can buy, a 63 plymouth., > 440 auto. pics below. > Is is a solid car with surface rust only.
