This is my 33 Plymouth I found in a shop it had been in since 1970-71. I have been working on it off and on for about a year, I was shooting for the look of the Bad A#% Street racer from 1968-70 you would have avoided at all cost while cruising the local drive in.. Any Opinions on anything I should change will be great... Thanks it has the paint from the 60s and the bondo and sanding was done in 71 or so, I think I am going to leave it for a little while..
The only thing you should change is to pencil in my name on the title, LOL. That coupe has the "badass look" covered. Is that a 440 peekin' out of the engine bay? When ya do refinish it you gotta paint it Plum Crazy again.
Pretend to be badass ?...........already too many folks pretending.......make it BadAss........for real.....lots-o-possibilities..........Littleman
You asked... that was once someones pride and joy....it deserves paint in my opinion...when you get around to it. I like the overall look of the mods, even the fenders, fronts & rears. I'd lose those frame horns in the back or at least connect them with a pushbar or nerf. 34/4 mopar coupes are tough looking no matter what.
I'm for driving the hell out of it. If it' got seat belts take the neighbor's kids for a ride, one at a time, with parental apporval of course. Take a dog or too along for the ride too!
I like the fenders! Can't wait till I can say my 33 coupe is almost done! Mine is just a rather attractive pile of parts right now!!!
There is no way I would ever paint it. I like it as is. It needs the sound of high comp and a bumpy cam and solid 12 sec times.
It should be pretty BAD ASS it has a 1964 dated 426 wedge with 10.5 to 1 compression a .525 lift Hydraulic cam, some nice headers, decent stock heads, M1 intake and 750 holley a 3200 converter, 4.30 GEARS, spool and 35 spline axles. The engine went 11.50s in my 66 coronet at 3615 pounds with a 4 speed and I figure I am losing at least 900 pounds between the cars,so mid to high 10s shouldnt be any problem, plus I have a little NOS kit laying around if needed....This car was built into a Hot ROD IN 1963 and I have not changed anything on the body..... I had just pushed the car out is why it is short a few lug nuts..
Damn, that's bad-ass! I like painted cars so I'd honor the car w/ a nice paint job= even in satin would be killer. Oh and I'd wack off the frame ends & add some nice period nerf bars.
Don't forget about a rollbar of some sorts and some of the other saftey gear......then your all set for much fun !.........Littleman
