I have done so much to this car and now every time I go to work on it, I get bored within minutes and walk away. I have got it sanded and primed, rebuilt the generator, rebuilt the speedometer, rebuilt the starter, new hoses, new belts, tuned the carb, new interior, new battery, new 8 ply...

my friends around here don't know a carb from a throttle body and my wife always says the same thing "do what makes you happy honey". I keep telling her not to say that cause I make dumbass decisions and I need structure! Lol

Man someone offered me a car today that I really have to think hard about! Im wanting to finish this car out but man being offered your favorite car puts you in a bind.

I'm getting ready to start paint this weekend. Got to go out and start sanding and washing tomorrow.

I was trying to figure out a way to rig a light up in the trunk of my Plymouth. I looked at several trunk light kits but they all looked boring, so I started digging through boxes and was hit with inspiration. I took an old marvel inverse oiler added a 18" led light strip and BAM, I have a...

I got it off of a guy in Louisiana. He has a **** load more, I think he bought a ware house cause he has boxes upon boxes of these and several other NOS vintage cars parts and extras. I have his contact info if anyone is interested in buying one from him.

Thank you. The club coupes are awesome! I have everything I need to finish this car out now except for a dang headliner that I can use as a pattern. I wont buy a new one just to cut it up so I need to find a good enough used one to use.

I found that out and decided to go with the industrial paint from John Deere, cause I love that green.

I just got this in the mail for the Plymouth. 1950's Coldmaster under dash cooler. I traded some license plates for it, and I think I got a good deal.

Ok I have spent hours trying to find Tremclad in the States but apparently it can only be purchased in Canada.

Ok I just read the article about the guy that has painted a few cars with a paint roller, and I have to say I'm hooked. I will be trying this out in a few weeks. I just priced everything on lowes.com and it is only going to cost me about $60-$75 to get the paint job done. I will keep you all...

Post some pics of it or email them to me, I would love to see it? I will check that thread out today. Thanks for the lead! If I take the original motor and trans out I will end up replacing it Cummins 4bt. I met a guy at a car show that has a 50 Dodge sedan and he is pumping out a ****...

I haven't purchased the paint yet. That car was really done with a paint roller!?!?!?!? That is freaking crazy.

Thank you for all of the kind words. I will be fixing the minor rust holes next weekend and since I cant afford a paint shop to spray my car Im having a paint supply company make me a 12 pack of custom color spray cans. Wont be perfect but will prevent further rust issues till I can afford a...

I love this car and I drive it daily. The motor is quiet and runs like a sewing machine! This is quite possibly the best car I have purchased in years.

I will brother. Thanks again. Oh I also don't plan to sell it anytime soon but if the right trade came along the wheels might start turning.

The reason why I used the material I did was because the seats were in complete shambles, and I could afford any material at the time so I used the material I found folded up on the trunk. I'm not a fan of it either considering I'm color blind to red. no offense taken by the way I just made due...

I'm going to be redoing the interior with a black embossed vinyl where you see the grey color, and I don't know what else to replace the red areas.

I got me a new project over the tax season. I ended up getting a daily driver 1947 Plymouth Special Deluxe 2 door sedan with 42,000 original miles, and original flathead 6 and 3 on the tree transmission. I have done the interior (but I don't like it and will be changing it soon). I will be...

Anybody know of anybody know of any sites that I can get parts and info for my new car?

I have another member that asked if he could buy it, if he decides to pass on it I will send you a pm.

Everyone says we stole the car when they hear what we paid for it.

I peeled off the stupid bullet hole stickers and I removed the goofy foot shaped gas pedal yesterday. Yes it is the original motor and transmission that came with the car in 47. Right now I'm working on gathering up everything I need to convert it to 12V.

My wife got me a 1947 Plymouth Deluxe for Valentines day. I have been after this car for over 3 years and finally the owner said yes. 90% restored and original, only 38,000 original miles, and runs like a sewing machine.

Seems like every single car I have got in the last 5 years has been some project. I swear I fall for every shade tree mechanics shawty patch work. My most current mistake is a 87 Ramcharger.

I got a 1964 Dodge Dart 270 about a year ago off of a friend that moved from Kansas to California. He said it was in great shape just needed a set of points, that's the last time I do trust a friend. The motor is shot and I was assured the body was in great shape, and it looked that way till I...
