Projects Any ideas for my new 1964 Dodge project

i love that car, but i love how 60s mopars look

 

Im not really familiar w/ Chrysler suspension but woldnt "removing" the bars be like running w/out coils or the likes?
In VW talk removing the bars (torsions as well) means just this and its considered pretty much a hack job.
Im not trying to be smart just askin!

 

no idea

 

Quick panel paint idea...
Migth be a bit too "lowrider" for you.

 

i dig it. what about black with gold flake?

 

Mopar torsion-bar suspension is adjustable. You just turn a bolt, you can raise / lower the suspension 3 or 4 inches.

 

Here's some "light" reading...

Just like DonMan posted,Turn the bolt and the Mopar gets "More Low".....

 

Hemi, Hemi, Hemi. Low, low , low....My thoughts....

 

Oh i see, kool sistem, really!
James, as usual, spot on!

 

aww hell just throw on some chrome reverse wheels and baby moon caps shoot it suede . then just have fun with it for the summer . if you like it then spend cash on making it pretty . i did like the panel job that was photo shopped that would be sweet !!

 

Cool 880, not many of them around anymore. Yours in need of some work, but most parts are interchangeable with like-Mopars. Good luck finding trim pieces or specific parts; may need a donor. It's a very special-interest kind of car and if it's what you want then build it up nice.

Here's a pic or my 4dr hardtop with Cragars. I ultimately did away with them because although they looked good, they just weren't right. A 275/60/15 in the rear fits with room to spare. Have black steel wheels now.
