And, I'd like to keep it from becoming a part time job where I spend my time dismantling it and shipping parts. I've got enough to do on my 85 and I'm dying to get into a 67 project (old Pontiac). I should gets some photos and post a "come-get-it-all" ad and see if someone needs some parts and that part time job to liquefy what they don't need.

I think it'd be cool if you did. There are guys in the 67 to 72 world who literally catalog every nut and bolt and describe it. The initials, markings, and other stampings. Square bodies haven't reached that level of intensity yet, but at some point they probably will. Not that you can hold on to it until then, haha.
