Don't forget to add fuel supplements every time you fill up (that huge tank that was made when gas was under a buck a gallon.) Engines of that time depended on the lead in the fuel, without a decent additive the life of the valve train can be significantly shortened. Sorry I can't recommend one, it's been way too long since I needed anything like that... but here's a clue: if it's legal in Cali, chances are it sucks rocks! :-)

No more then any other car. Doubtful you'll drive it in traffic to work or thru the winter slop to the store, so it will probably sit locked in your garage until it's sunny & warm outside.

Mopars are great cars. They run beautiful if you just do regular maintenance. And no they are just as easy to maintain as any other car on the road.

tuneups are more frequent, if you don't convert to electronic ignition. And carbs need attention, too

nope, its just like any other car. little time and money every now and then. grew up around them when jesus was a baby

thanks
