    A friend of mine bought a 1950 Chrysler that has been in silent storage for 6 plus years and wanted me and my buddy Billy of Billy's Hot Rod shop to get the car running again and do some minor paint work. I thought I would share the with everyone. Billy and I are die hard Ford guys but this car could turn our eyes. These first pictures are of the car moving and seeing the sun in over 6 years.

    The Chrsyler sees the light of day for the first time in over 6 years. We put a rebuilt carb. on the car and tinkered with it a little bit. and it drove on trailer but itself.

    Good one - and looks like it does not need body work = is it as good as what the photos say it is?

    Yes but the new owner wants the roof to be burgundy to match the interior

    That'll look great - if there's any wheel showing around the caps, Burgundy there would tie it in nicely. Sweet car.
