1957 Dodge D100

New guy to cars/trucks but not to old stuff. I have a 57' D100 that I've started doing some work to. My plans are to modernize the drive train a little so that I can make it a daily driver if I want but keep it stock looking and retain the straight 6 flathead. I already have a t5, adapter plate w/clutch, 8.8 rear end, front disc conversion, fibergl*** rear fenders and rust free fronts.

Got a lot of work to do on the grill yet and learning as I go. Motor/trans, sheet metal and drive train currently off the truck.

Very, very cool, yes it needs a "modern" engine. I would suggest a early hemi!

 

Welcome, those 57's are neat old trucks. Look up moparjoel here, he's got one that's he's been building for a while.
