Thread: 33 Dodge coupe

Thanks for the comments.
The firewall is polished aluminum and not very polished.
Do you have any pictures of your 33? what are you using for a motor and front end?I really like the lines on the mopar coupes.

To be totally honest, I'm not sure exactly what front end is under the car, other than it has Mustang II rack and pinion. The Front end set up was installed years ago when I was just a child, and the car still belonged to my uncle. I recently traded a '70 Chevy SWB pickup for the coupe. The coupe has a 350/th350 in it at the moment. The truck I gave up had a 327/th400 that I'd love to have back for the '33, but don't see that trade likely to happen.
I'm an admitted novice when it comes to many things hot rod related. I generally learn as I go when I get a project and begin working on it. This coupe represents the first time I'll be doing any significant labor on a car of this vintage, so I have much research and learning to do with regards to suspension set ups and things like that. Any work I've done on street rods before has been limited to some body work, and of course a LOT of polishing!

Very nice!. You're lucky to have what looks like a solid body to start with. You could throw a cat through the cab of mine when I started. The full fendered look is nice. I never had the fenders for mine. The rear fenders are glass.

The coupe now has black paint and the wiring is done. A lot of small changes and a few big ones.

Coupe is looking great Marcia.

Nice coupe!

Great job on the car, I am on the final long rebuild of my 34 Plymouth I'll post some pics if I can figure it out
