    new guy here

     



    Hello.....found this site and found it interesting cause of being just hot rod oriented. I just sold a 66 pro street Dart and am in the process of doing my present project....a 50 Plymouth 2 dr wagon with a chopped top. Am putting a Fatman MS2 front end and a Heidts IRS on the rear. Will have a 360 Mopar and auto. I am in Pa and I work for a cooling company and would be glad to help anyone who has a cooling problem.

    Would that be this one?


    If so, I've admired it before

    Welcome sunsetdart,

    Back in "the day" you couldn't give those 50s mopars away. I have seen a number of them in the car mags of late and love the ones that have been chopped. This will be a neat project.

    Jack.

    Bill S................yep that's the one.........it's going to AZ.........took me 2 yrs to finally sell it .......kinda hate to see it go, but the new one is going to be everything the Dart was not. New one will have a heater, radio, insulation etc. Am putting the FAST EZ fuel injection on it to so it will get good mileage. The Dart got 4-5 mpg.......it is a 10 sec street car and the guy who bought it is going to race it.

    Is the car at Blast from the Past, or are you doing the work yourself?

    the car is at Tim's Hot Rod shop. He and I have been friends for over 40 yrs. His work and welding skills are far and above what blast can do. Did you hear about the guy who paid over $300,000 to have an Outlaw glass bodied 32 ford built at Blast? It's been the talk of the hot rod community for 2 yrs now. Now I hear the car is for sale.

    Tim is doing the chassis work and I will finish the rest.
    I saw some work Tim did on a 31 Model A pick up a while back.....Clean, slick, and as you stated, far beyond what one would expect.
