Not really the best time for muscle car rebuilding. Barrett Jackson has pretty much ruined the muscle car scene over the last 6-7 years. A shell of anything considered even remotely classic fetches a ridiculous price now.

That said, if I could do any rebuild, a C-Body Chrysler New Yorker would be my top choice right now. Would be a different car next week, though.

That's either a 66 or 67, I don't know the difference, but it is not a 65. I would want to have a 64 conv. with tri-power & 4 speed.

Are you trying to tell us that the "rest of the story" is that Richard Petty is your father?

1971 Plymouth Satellite Sebring. Mine didn't look as good and was powered by a wheezy old 318 with a 2bbl carb, but I loved it and wish I'd been able to put some money into it.

This was my first thought.
