60 61 62 mopars wings and fins thred

Dodge, Plymouth and chrysler products with there crazy fins and bird bath trunks. Who's cruzing one?

 

I can tell no one really likes me so i'll go away now.

 

My son is working on a '60 Dodge pioneer hard top (Canadian model). Really a nice car. I love '62 dodge dart but they are veryhard to find.

 

Hey,

I searched for ten years before finding my '62 Dart 330 post two-door sedan. Most of the ones I looked at started at 5K and were '' painted-up shitboxes"! My folks had a '60 Dodge Pioneer fifty years ago.

Ah, the Sixty-Two Model Year, the year that cost Exner his job!

Ours,...currently undergoing a custom inspired transformation......

 

Your dates are a bit off when it comes to cool fins on Mopars...
The fun started in '57.

I've started a general 'fin-topic' sometime ago where all brands were welcome.

But since you do have a '57 Plymouth posted, I post my earlier stuff aswell!

1960 Chrysler NewYorker


1957 Chrysler Windsor


1957 Plymouth Belvedere

 

Boo HOO I can't post to this one - I gotta '63 Dodge - had it for 30 yrs but no fins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't own one, but I want a 59 Coronet SO BAD!

 

Here is a buddy's 60 Polara.




How many of you guys have seen one of these before?

John, I cant wait to see the limo finished. Its nice to see your toys. Dorsey Little Rock, AR

 

I like the '59 with the "Sold no parts" lettering on it. I did the same to my '55 Dodge convertible when I bought it, I couldn't pick it up for a few days but I didn't want anything walking off of it from the junkyard where it was so I wrote all over it. Worked too.

 

This is my 59 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer. Is has a Camaro P.S. sub frame trans-am rearend (3.73 )with disc brakes all around, 4 link suspension with front and rear air bags. Chevy 350/700r . It is a 79 Z28 with a Dodge body! Ya I know all you Mopar purist hate me!! It did have a rare 350 Mopar from the factory, But to keep it on the road when no parts could be found I had to find a ulterantive method. I added a/c,cruise control, tilt wheel, to the already power window swivel bucket seat car.
Update: Car is now under going a Chopped top 3 inches, shaved door handles, new paint job.

 

eh its your car, but i can't say i'd do the same. The chop surprises me though, the 2dr roof line is already so swoopy with the bubble top windshield.

 

I cruising a 61 Dodge Pioneer, just finsihed a 413 ram motor for it.

 

'60 Plym here, no fins on the '61 & up Plyms. Petty Blue with purple roof & scalloped area. Was a farmers car evidently, /6, 3 on the tree, no radio, no carpet, no nothing. Has 331/727 9" & 77 NYer disc spindles now.

 

Ok. So what's a bird bath trunk????....

 

Don't know, some Chryslers had toilet seat trunk covers.

 

I don't have anything '60-62, but I do have a couple of '57s.
