Welcome to the group. That Plymouth is actually pretty sweet, the chop looks great on it. Kinda looks like a '56 Ford at a quick glance, but definitely nice.
What are your plans for it?

Social welcome in , and realy great find . Roof fits great for the look . There is a member here with i think the same Plymouth . I did read a great tech article on cutting and welding the stainless to fit chops . It was on early 50 Chevy but still a great article . I'll look for it and link it in a pm tonight.

Welcome to CHR! Your Plymouth is nice looking with a tremendous amount of potential. It could definitely be one very fine kustom.
Don't forget to post a lot of pictures as you complete your build. We really love pictures.Bob

thanks all, the car has the original 270. been rebuilt with a mild cam, hi-rise weiand intake and 4bbl.. push button auto. pretty much i'm going to put it together as it is and make sure the drivetrain is good. i kinda want to keep it like how they were done in the '60's i guess. i don't really want to cut the frame. there are custom interior panels made never been installed. i guess i just want to make it a nice hot rod to cruise around, nothing to fancy. here is a picture of the back window. the frame and glass is from a 1950 ford and it has been laided down. it is a really nice job who ever did it.

Welcome - that looks like a sweet Plymouth. Chopped just right.
Really looks good from the back!
I need to spend some time at ClubChopper.
Got a '94 Ultra Classic I want to get 'down'.
That high center of gravity is killing me.
It always feels like it wants to tip over - and it has, a few times trying to push it around!!! Had to leave it laying down till I got some help to lift it.
My '77 FLH is stripped of faring, bags and crash bar, and with a replacement seat, sits pretty good. And I can pick it up if I need to!!!!There is no limit to what a man can do . . . if he doesn't mind who gets the credit. (Ronald Reagan)
