Hey everyone my names Carlos, I've been a long time reader and finally have something worthy to post. I picked up a 53 Plymouth from a friend and have some plans for it. I have been working on it for a bit now. And its come a long way, little by little i figure. I have been running into some hold ups and I figured it was time to post up and see if anyone can help point me in the right direction. I know she maybe a little rough around the edges but I'm starting to really dig this car.
Great job so far. I like the idea of a four door custom it's something different. What engine/ transmission combo are you going to run? Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
Thanks 55! I should really get some more recent pics up of the car. I bought this from a friend of mine who had it fro a while before I got my hands on it. I figured a four door so I can stick the whole family in it. However when i got the car it had a Chevy 350 installed. I decided to drop in an LSX with a 700R4 for the time being (planning later to swap a TH400). Eventually I plan on adding a turbo to the setup as well.
Looks good. I got a four door '56 chevy for the same reason. It's more fun when the whole family is involved.
Any pics or info on the suspension? I have a 54 Savoy that I'm hoping to get that low. And where in the bay area are you from?
Jeez, everything looks great slammed. I like four doors as well! And I love your turbo LSX idea. What a sleeper!!
Nice. I have a 54 belvedere in my garage that's just waiting for me to finish other projects. www.yeahmikey.com
