I have had a whole string of traditional rods ... Model As, a duece coupe, '40 Ford, '57 Chevys, etc. ... but somehow all of my current projects seem to be '49 through '52 Plymouths. I am quite familiar with the inside of a Ford flathead V8 or a small block Chevy, but 218 flathead sixes have sort of grown on me. I cannot explain it.
Welcome from an ex Kansas boy. The flat 6's have been around a lont time. Cool looking engine with the speed parts installed.
I am looking for 1949-1959 Plymouth Wagon for project car---any information on finding one would be greatly appreciated.
I have three, 47 P15 Sedan, 48 Dodge Truck and a 49P17 Business Coupe. Fun because they are different. Easy to modify the motors dual carbs, exhasuet, port etc OD transmissions. I drive mine everwher. Took the 49 to Detroit last summer. Plannin gon drivign the 47 to Portland OR next June
Welcome to the HAMB... there are plenty o' Plymouth (and overall MOPAR) folks here. I have been receiving excellent advice, encouragement, and fellowship from my fellow HAMBers as I build my beast. Have fun with the flat-6 for a while, and if you out grow it, stuff a hemi/poly motor under the hood and have some more fun!
Welcome from a neighbor in Colorado. One of my club brothers has a bad*** 47 Chrysler. Lonelyknightskustoms.com Big Rich
