    I think it looks great. Would look good lower too.
    Like the old mopars. Had a 37 plymouth coupe for a while. All stock, lowered. Had all the old speed equipment on it too. Flathead 6.

    Wow. I've never seen a 6 wheel Dodge, that's gotta be a pretty rare piece. I don't think I'd touch that one, just drive it as is. They're not bad, you won't set any land speed records with it, but they will roll at highway speeds OK. Maybe a 5spd but that'd be it.

    Very nice; love the six wheels. I would try to find a front bumper for it; I'd hate to see that grille get crunched.:eek:

    Looks great, but I am partial to the early Mopars.

    I really like the mid 30's Mopars too. Here's my college daily driver back in the 80's, Bob

    I like it! But I'm partial to '36 Dodges. Here is my 5 wheel '36 Dodge pickup. I"m almost done switching it over to 331 Chrysler FirePower.

    Wow Man, that car is real pretty. The picture of the front end is pure Beauty!!!

    IF I was going to do anything to it, it would be to drop it 1 to 2 inches to cover the wheel well gap more, but thats a personal preference nit pick.. It is beautiful...

    Nice car. I have a '38 Dodge coupe I'm working on in the garage. Love the 30's MOPARs.

    I like it just the way it is...
    As a former owner of a '35 Dodge, I drove one quite a bit around town and on the highway. Highway speeds are no problem, just be patient getting up to speed. I'd probably add a bumper to protect the grill and pull a leaf or two to get the ride height I wanted.

    Needs a front bumper and ditch those ugly turn signals up front. Some speed parts on the flat 6 would be cool too. I'd skip the engine swap entirely.
