Did I sell you that Edmunds intake? That looks just like the one I sold last fall.

 

no, i had it for a few years.

 

I posted this on the wrong thread so I have had another go.
It is or was a 52Dodge Coronet X 4door sedan.It came into New Zealand in 61 from American Samoa right hand drive.As far as I know it is the only 52 Coronet in NZ so I chopped it

 

Some bad ass rides popin up I here... off topic.. kinda... my 50 just came up with a timing issue any one know about timing the flat 6 motors? which way to turn the dist. To. Advance it? I think the vacuum advance went bad.. anyone know where I can find a vacuum advance iv tried burnbaums, kanter, & haygen none of em have it... I need to figure somethin out its my only car I own so I need it runnin!! Any ideas please

 

the timing for your motor is 153624 and looking from the front of the car the dissy. turns clockwise.Hope this helps.Ray.

 

I owned this 54 wagon for a time back in the 1970s.....it was a nice
stocker with factory overdrive. A guy bought it from me, parked it
and it sat for 30 years or so deteriorating. Ended up a couple years ago
at this place in Diamond, MO. Someone bought it - maybe from the Kansas
City area.....don't know if they might be a HAMBer. Would be nice to see it
rejuvenated.

Had a 50 Wayfarer convert in the 1960s....finally sold it to a collector in
Penna.

Even had a 51 DeSoto hardtop with factory air back then........drove it
around a while and sold it. They were just nice "old cars" back then.

My current car is in the avatar, and older than the scope of this thread.

 

F*ckin love this thing! Looks good just the way it sits!

 

Dig that new nose job Jay!

 

My 1949 Dodge. It is rather modified.

 

here's my 51 concord business coupe plus some other 50's mopars out in the back 20,weeds took over some,lol

 

fredK that 49 is F$#@! Sick lays super hard what clip did you use in the front?

 

Lots of awesome cars in this thread! Thanks to all for sharing.

Where can one find floorpans for a Mopar of this vintage? I know where there is a Plymouth for sale cheap, but the floors are totally gone.

Thanks!

JK

 

Nice

 

Hi 50Freak,

I cut Freds stock frame up a little bit.......grabed some 2x4 bok tubing and made it the way Mopar should have done it in the old days. Fresno isn't that far away, drop by the shop and we have lots of build pictures you could look at and lots of other cars "in the build" Fred would probably let you take his for a cruise. Has a Jasper 360, Richmond 5spd, Dana 60.....just what you need to have a little fun.

Rock Auto sells them and pricier versions are made by the Plymouth Doctor.

 

The old mans 50 Dodge, daily driver.

 

Thank you Jersey Harold! I'll look into that.
