Projects 1950 Plymouth mild custom build

Been wanting to do a mild custom build for a while now, so been looking around for something in my budget and came across this 1950 Plymouth out in Kansas for cheap


After some wheeling and dealing i went down and picked her up .

 

Should be a kewl build ! What's your plans?

 

Got her home and before I even got it off the trailer decided to try to start her up , good battery and some old lawnmower gass and it limped to life..

 

Decided to clr and scotch bright her down and clean the chrome up to see what i had to start with..

 

I have a 26,000 mile 6 cylinder and 3 speed trans( and other parts ) out of a 53 Plymouth that could be bought pretty cheap. Hasn't run for a few years but it spins free and is complete...

 

Lowering, wide white tires, flipper hubcaps, dummy spot lights, side pipes, satin black paint with pinstriping, custom interior. Nose and deck hood , French headlights.

 

have fun

 

Here's a "Satin Doll" that's a cutie!

 

Hey you said I was getting that !

 

Great starting point you have grabbed there, can't wait to see it progress.

 

Can't decide what hubcaps to get , guys on here did a little photo shop of my vision. what's you're all thoughts on the caps ?

 

I really like the wheel covers you have.
I'd detail the centers with paint (Champagne gold?), maybe bronze wheel rims (or vice verse), and something like a '59 Lancer spinner.

 

I like the Lancers...

 

Hey! Those are pictures of my stock 49 plymouth that someone shopped.

 

Took your advice..

 

DAY-yummm! That absolutely slays!
So much like the classic '51 Olds...



...or Hollywood Sombrero.



Keep it up, you'll have a knockout!
