Hot Rods '33 Plymouth mocked up

Lets try this again, in the right forum!


Finally gathered the parts to make my 33 Plymouth into a mocked up roller!!

Set the body on so I could center the axle in the wheelwells. Height wise, with the spring installed the body will be about an inch higher than it sits right now, and about 2 inches forward centering the rear wheels in the arch. Never was too fond of the "squashed" look. Still a bunch more to do, but it's a great feeling when you can finally roll that pile of parts around! Thanks to Royalshifter, and Ladyshifter for everything. None of this would have been possible without your generosity and inspiration. Thanks to HAMB Newbie Rosiegirl (My wife) For helping me set the body up with no sling or cherry picker, just us lifting it in place!! Without her patience, and occasional prodding to get off the couch and into the garage I wouldn't be nearly as far as I am!! And to my Daughter for wanting to hang out in the garage and "ride" in the car as I push it in and out of the garage!

Looks great!!

 

Looks awesome Bro, keep it up.

 

good looking ride!

 

Love it!!
So I won't rag you about running a GM engine in it .....

 

Haha, yeah it's kinda a bastard child but it flows together well!

 

killer start

 

great to see your geting her togeather! cnt wait to see more progress

 

Progress is slow now. Taking inventory of all the little crap I need. Rear U-bolts, shackles, shocks, bear claw latches..... At least I have pretty much all the big stuff!

 

Looks great.......brings back memories.

 

The car is coming along great. Now you should come down here and help me with mine. haha

 

I bet it does bring back memories! Can't wait to throw you and Kelly the keys

Will work for car parts!

 

looking good! Now u just need to find an early Hemi or Poly to make it bad ass! Nailhead would be cool also. BUT, Ive grown to believe mopar 4 a mopar!

 

I agree! But looks great!

 

Looking great! More pics please!!

 

I agree, but I'm using what I have available at the moment. I would like to do a nailhead, and if I happen across one then that's what will go in. I wouldn't argue with a poly though either!

The car is a mix match of parts and I'm running a full hood anyway. The only thing Mopar is the body!

I'll be setting up the rear end soon then the body comes off and I have to finish weld everything. Pics will follow!

Thanks for the kind words everyone, just trying to build the car I love on a modest income.

 

Gorgeous!

 

you just think thats your car the eyes on that little queen says daddy PLEASE and we both know where that leads,Lol

 

Looks good! I agree on the non-squashed look

 

That looks like a great combination of pieces. I'll be waiting for update pics!

 

yep! pretty exciting! you need more father's day and christmases so you can get more parts ; )

 

Looks great, love the Mopars!
