    Any Body know where I can get a new water neck for my 218 flathead?? I have tried everywhere and can't find one. Mine is leaking at the bottom. Thanks!

    Are you a member of the Plymouth Owner's Club? They're mostly a restorers club but dudes like that can really track down the obscure stuff when you need it.

    I was a member back in 1984 when it was the Plymouth 4 & 6 Cylinder Owner's Club. I had a 53 Belvedere hardtop (actually, I think all of the Belvederes were hardtops in 53) it was, and is a pretty rare little car. I wish I had it back....I'd stuff a hemi in the dern thing and make it go fast.

    I can imagine that would be tough to find these days... Not to rub it in, but there was a spare one in my glovebox when I bought my car! Thought it was kind of strange, but when I replaced my upper hose and thermostat, I figured out why! Half of the neck was rusted away! =o
