Yeah, that's a good start.

I need to check it over but I had forgotten my welding machine works on both 110 and 220 volts- I had just put the 220 outlet in the garage because it draws less current.

I should be able to run the welding machine in the interim.

I did find half of the tool for making the ribs in the trunk floor pan too. I need to look for the rest of it.

Needs floor pans in the front, where water has sat. (Panels available). Could probably get away with being patched.
Trunk floor needs replacing (have panel) and infill sections need fab and welding in.
Tulip panel has a CB antenna hole in and the lip on the left has rusted out (common on these, panels all come together there).
Lower rear quarters need replacement. (Panels available)
Scuttle drain blocked on passenger side and bottom of scuttle is holed.

Sills are solid, pillars are solid, roof is good, doors are good, firewall is good- basically all the structural parts don't need anything, just a few places with mostly big flat panel and easy access need welding.

Engine bay is ok. Scuttle is pinholes in each corner. Hood needs welding at rear hinge points, looks like it sat up with the good open and the water went to the bottom corners.

Front floor pans are unserviceable, normal Mopar rotspot, the water sits in the carpet and rots the low points out. Rear floor is good, as are the rear footwells.

Trunk floor needs new panel putting in and the flitch panels making up (I was in the process of fabbing some up). Rear quarters are gone but panels are available for these (again, common rotspot).

Got a pile of parts, trim, hardware niknaks, shocks, NOS hubcaps and another 318 engine block. New fuel tank. Seats aren't bad. Headliner is gone, dash pad is bad but present.

Overall, for an old Mopar it's not half bad. It's solid where it counts and the bad bits are available, just need cutting out and fresh putting in.
