Buck Tag? must mean fender tag...and another mopar with a POSI. why would you paint the engine bay.....and not paint the hood? Doesn't look too bad...but I'd want to see it in person.

Really like the blue one with the white top. Sharp car. Too bad these are out of my price range.

Just wondering as I am learning on the restoration side of things, what would be the reasoning for painting the car, but not the underside of the hood, trunk lid, or inside the trunk? This doesn't make sense to me. It makes me think that someone slapped a quick paint job on it to try to get more $ out of it (along with the fact that there is not vin or fender tag) and the actually quality of the car is suspect, or is there any legitimate reasons I might not be thinking of? Also, I don't get how some of the underside is solid black and then other parts are completely rusted out. It looks like they are trying to cover up under body rust issues, would I be correct in my thinking? If that is correct why would you ever leave all the other rusty parts, like exhaust and leaf springs?

yes...quick flip, lipstick on a pig...also some GM guys don't know that Mopars had the engine bay/trunk painted body color

all of your reasons could be the answer.
or maybe lost interest in finishing, lack of money,or other personal reasons. my car has been in primer for four years now because the friend doing the work was diagnoised with COPD and couldn't finish it. Then my youngest started college,my work schedule changed, and car got bumped down on the priority list.
this may be a good car, but I would definitely want to see it in person, check with the local DMV and mine before I would even consider laying any money down.
