1958 Dodge
It's been over a year and this car is still kicking around in my brain.
It might just be the thought of dragging another odd ball car home.
I know he recently sold a few more cars, one in particular that someone is trying unsuccessfully to flip, a testament to his knowledge on the true value of Mopars.
It could be gone as I write this.
Funny, I decided not to get it, convinced myself, because it was beyond my skillset. Then I took the 62 I bought from him and replaced not only the floor, trunk to firewall, but the crossmember, part of the frame, the cowl, and the firewall.
The friggin firewall, the whole thing, never thought it possible.
I have no desire to do that again, the 62 isn't done, and I definitely need the $ to finish it.
I took these pics while I was there, $1,500 each, two with 2 barrels, two with a single 4 barrel.
He said, iirc, they made 4 barrel truck engines that are not desirable, and you don't know until you see the top of the cylinders.
So, to recap, I'm an idiot.
