    I've had a few 49 to 54 Chevys and I love 'em. In my recent search for another one, I stumbled across a 1950 Plymouth. It's kind of a cool looking car and was wondering if anyone has any photos of one done up. Lowered, primed, etc.......:rolleyes:

    this is a 49 but very similar. This body style is not very common but always on of my favorites.

    Here's my '50 coronet. I haven't really done anything except lower it 4" and drive the wheels off of it.

    I've decided to go with a 51 Plymouth Cambridge. It's an original car with only a few rust issues to take care of. Hopefully, I can turn it into bit of a headturner as most of the ones that are posted, are....

    My '49 dodge wayfarer. There are lots of aftermarket suspension pieces for these, you just have to know where to look. It has a fatman mustang II stub, 440/727 engine/tranny and a ford 9".

    I really like that, Tortuga!
    Mine's a 50 mPlymouth woodie, so it won't be getting any body mods.

    Fact is, if you look through the old "little" books, a great many of the cars featured are Mopars. The magazines and writers in those times were not so Ford/Chevy prejudiced as those of the last 3 decades. With the communications of today it amazes me that magazines aren't begging for submissions to be reduced by subscribers and freelancers!!?
