Anyone else building old dodge/plymouth other mopars?

Hey I forgot to thank you for the other pictures...Thanksreal nice car.

 

Any of you 35-38 dod/ply folks have a inst cluster? I have a dash in my roadster with a ply speedometer, but need the round inst cluster. Any help would be appreciated. thanks, jim.

 

Desoto getting fresh paint and minor tweaks. This was chopped 25 yrs ago.

 

I can't wait to see it done. Looks like a kool project.

 

Looks a bit like the 1 on Tex Smith's Mopar book.

 

Finally decided on the drivetrain on the '50 Wayfarer Sportabout Roadster.
'55 Dodge Super Red Ram Hemi
4-spd OD out of a Dakota with Wilcap adapter
8 3/4" rear with 3.55s

Mocked it up with a poly this weekend. Think it'll work!

Really digging this blue one for a final look. Minus the visor. Visor on a convertible? Huh?

 

I have a Desoto 1941 coupe



with 354 hemi

Sweet DeSoto, I used to have a 41 5 window coupe.

 

Not really a build but that thing over there under my name

 

1915 to 1964.

 

Sure does look sweet,i love it,got frame?Shameless but asking anyway............YG

 

1950 Chrysler Windsor Coupe. 251 clunk o matic, lowered (not enough), Flat black/plum crazy purple. Was a pile of crap when i started. Almost done

 

For those folks in the Northern states wanting a project, I'll offer a plug for a fella on another forum who is at the point of selling his project due to health issues. It sure looks like a good deal...

What would you do with this thing?

Chop, Drop and Roll!

 

My Dad built this car in 1959 and sold it in 1970 and I bought it in 2009, trying to restore it to the way he had it.

 

just finished putting dual bb's on my '41 power wagon. tomorrow im driving it to the dump with a load of trash. fun.

 

hallrodsThat's pretty awesome that you got it back some 40 years later! Do it some justice for your dad, keep the pics updated as the progress goes foward.

 

36 Ram,Thanks I will try to do it right. My father is helping a little on this car. I will paint it the same color he painted it in 1959 royal metalic blue. This car is the reason I an into hot rods.I hpoe to have it on the road this summer. My father is finishing another car at his house a 1932 ford roadster with a 354 hemi.

 

Cool!
Have you posted any pictures from the way it was originally?

 

Here are some pictures of the car when my Dad first built it.

 

I checked the pics, how cool is that. Who is the little guy in pic 5? I dig the motor and the info board (paper) that will be cool when its done,

 

Thanks I was lucky growing up in this hobby. I didn't talk to my Dad for two weeks after he sold it. He bought a 1965 malibu ss red really a nice car,I hated it.I always told him I was going to buy the old dodge someday and I finally did. That kid was me at least the car still looks cool.

 

I just purchased a 1934 Plymouth Sedan that I am going to fix up. Its running great. Has a Chevy 350, 700R transmission, 9" Rear End, Mustang II front end, Heat, Air Con, Power Windows and runs down the road like a champ!
I need new seats for it but not sure what will fit in it so might be a trial and error thing.

 

First car I remember my Dad having, a '51 Chrysler Saratoga Coupe. This was about 1957. It had the Hemi and Fluid Drive. Car was ahead of it's time, the interior was factory leather, and had a padded dash. Car and interior was dark burgundy.

Here's a picture of my 38' plymouth I'm working on. Trying to get the mustang ii suspension installed.
