41' Plymouth 2 door sedan.
90' 12 valve with 100k on it
727 tranny getting a fresh rebuild
Frame is from a 76'd100. Used to be a Navy truck with 32k on it.

In the past 6 months I've done a lot with the car and finally got the motor and tranny mocked up. Also got the motor fired up and it helped with keeping me motivated with the project.
Still need a few things like front springs and a radiator. Hope to have it driving by spring and get to some shows and races.

to be honest I think it looks better with the steel wheels ..however ether way AWESOME job cant wait to see a video of it driving

 

Yea, those wheels just don't do much for me either.

The first impression of that thing I thought Army staff car.......... Paint it OD Green, blackout kit, etc.......

Going to be a fun ride!

 

Very kool project, steel wheels and funky hubcaps for me.

 

Nice, put some springs under it and the steel wheels back on and you will really have something

 

The wheels have been bothering me about a week after I put them on.
I might have to trad for some flat black XD's. kinda took my friends word for it when he ordered them. They do look good in person but ...... I think I need different ones.

I still need to order a rebuild kit for the tranny. Was looking at the PATC kit.
Any thoughts on them .?
Thanks

 

That is a pretty sweet ride!!

I have a 48 Desoto I've bee considering doing something similar with. Do you have a complete build thread on any other board? Would love to see how you've done everything so far.

How similar was the wheel base between the Plymouth and the 2wd ram chassis?
