When I was young I found a shell of a Coupe sitting in a bush. I was told it was a 1940 or 1941 Plymouth Coupe. I absolutely fell in love with the...
I'm redoing the car, it has a 484ci Hilborn EFI Hemi, the chassis is certified for 8.50s, it is 100% intended for the street.... [IMG] [IMG]
I've owned my 1940 Plymouth P10 since the early 1980s, I drove it with a dual quad 440, 727 auto and 4.10 8 3/4 rear for years and years. Looked...
HEY!!!! I remember that PU on Clist!! I'm in Langley...
I find that to be distasteful to say the LEAST. Wanger and his buddy who bought that blackbird are sure trying to twist history. Disgusting....
I tried a k car seat in mine, didn't like the look and it was a tad too wide. I'll probably end up building a seat frame and making a real "old...
I ran a street car for 9 years with no air filter, I was surprised at the LACK of damage over the years!!?! ;) Judging by the pics, I would...
Gee whiz. Let's see.... I've ran tunnel rammed dual quads on street cars galore, daily drivers, my wife's daily drivers, my WORK TRUCK, you name...
I saw a 1960 MoPar pickup about a dozen years ago at the Portland Swap Meet. It had a Volare clip and a small block, we talked to the owner at...
Nothing beats an AWB Plymouth/Dodge.... killer pics!
I've been into cars my whole life, loved big engines and big back tires, loved then even more because my Dad hated them. He hated domestic cars....
I haven't posted much because I got sidetracked! Did a Cuda, Jensen Interceptor and a Charger.... then I moved. LOL I'll have to get back on my...
Yup, let's get some updates!!!
Yup, beautiful looking car so far.
You guys should Google Daimler Dart V8. Small and lightweight!! It's easier on the eyes than a Camry engine too.....
In case you haven't noticed... there are a ton of "loud and obnoxious" Toyotas and Hondas running around now... with 6" fart tips. I wouldn't...
No. The magical "600hp" 4 banger isn't going to be reliable and or street drivable. It will have very little torque, and the 600 figure for...
My Interceptor is a healthy 440, I run two turbo style mufflers and two Dynomax Bullets out back for resonators, it brings the decibles down to a...
ZERO interest in a SBC here! If I built a Chevy it would be a W block engine.... Ford- SOHC 427 MoPar- 392 style Hemi. I've got a 426 based...
I read your post on your Caprice... my buddy has an ex-cop car that is modded, he was out one night top ending on a deserted road.... that wasn't...
Congrats!!!! We are all waiting to see it too! ;)
Close, it's got a stroked Hemi.... [IMG]
LOL I was just lying, 6mph would be a downhill speed for me!!! I had my 1956 Fargo 3 ton at 60mph, that was IT! I never even thought to top out...
HEY!!!!!!! Not necessarily..... LET'S RACE! [IMG] [IMG]
I agree. I read the thread and think some of the replies are a little optomistic. Old speedos are so inaccurate it isn't funny, and...
You want scary- I've been 95mph in two different motorhomes. I didn't stop at 95mph, they both were completely topped out, and it takes a longggg...
My 1940 Plymouth Coupe and my Jensen Interceptor. Both finished though... ;)
Check the wire as it goes through the housing as someone mentioned above. I had spark at the points of my 56 Fargo, but it would not fire. Noticed...
Danged well said.
Late 50s Canadian Mopars were cool.... My 1959 Dodge Viscount had a 1959 Dodge front end and a 1959 Plymouth rear end!
