    Hey. Here is my latest project, a 1955 Plymouth Plaza, flathead 6 with 3-speed. I am the second owner, and I have big plans. First thing I have to do is rebuild the flathead. It started smoking bad around Christmas. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am in Hillsboro, TX, so hopefully I will see ya’ll in Austin for the Round Up.

    Looks like a clean '55. Have a look at my '50 Plymouth at www.50plymouth.com for some ideas for your 230 six. I rebuilt mine with a bunch of hop up stuff, and love it.

    Does your car have an overdrive? Makes all the difference...

    Blueskies,
    I have been to your website before. Your engine is awesome! It has definitely given me ideas and information. Thanks!
    My 55 does not have overdrive. I wish that it did.
