Here she is my new 38 chrysler royal sedan. Just wondering what everyone thinks. This is my first hot rod project and Im not really sure what way im going with it but ill keep you posted.

I like it. Another fine example of Walter P.'s handiwork. Do you have the pieces from the front end?

It is mostly all there including some front end trim on the roof but you may have to suscribe to Hemmings Motor News to find that left front fender. With a modern engine like some big block it could be a luxury cruiser with a lot of nostalgia. Still, you may have to hunt a bit to find that left front fender unless it came with the car and is not in the picture. I am quite familiar with the late '30s Mopars since my grandfather favored Dodge and Plymouths because they had hydraulic brakes at a time when the Ford's were still mechanical, but a Chrysler was top of the line, right up there with Cadillac and Lincoln, a real luxury liner. Providing you can find that left front fender you could end up with a very nice car with lots of room for trips.
