Hi Robin, long time no habla ! Upholstery looks real nice, I missed my 48 Business Coupe so much I went out and bought a 49 Dodge Bus. Coupe and today a 46 Plymouth Club Coupe ! Since the last time we communicated I semi-retired from my Heating company and opened up a part time American Classic Car Import business which I'm loving more and more each day as you can imagine. Your car is an ambassador for these cars here in the UK, well done mate. Alan

sorry guys, i meant to say is it a 49 ? business coupe MoparAl

Hi guys, long time no habla ! i had to sell my gorgeous 48 & 52 Plymouth Business Coupe to finance my new business venture. Anyway my new venture involves American Classics so its not so bad ! ive just purchased a 49 Dodge Coupe in OK, gonna have it painted etc b4 it arrives here in blighty. Am i right in that this is a Business Coupe ?

Well guys its obvious no one understood my predicament, but it seems to have worked out ok. I fitted the F1 shock mounts and due to the front springs being cut down i was able to re-use the original 5752 shocks ! As i stated b4 i pulled the bolts through from the inside of the frame and secured with large washers either side of the frame with nylon locking nuts and split washers. Took her out for a spin and WOW what a difference it has made and all for such an easy install. Happy New Year folks especially to Tim for his kind pm. Alan (MoparAl)

Hi guys, Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. Ive started the shock relocation at last, im putting the bolts through from inside the frame by welding a length of welding wire onto them and threading them through the drilled holes and using locking nuts to secure. Because the springs have been cut to lower the front i have a bit of a predicament, the road height for the shocks work out at 9.75 in, due to the cut springs the most the arms can travel up from this is 1.75in making a 8in space and when i drop the arms down the extended gap is max 15in. Ive looked at the Monroe chart and the best i can find is the 555002 its 8.625 compressed and 12.75 extended giving 4.125in of travel. What do ya reckon ? Gonna look at other makes in a min in case i can find anything better, any advice would be gratefully appreciated. Alan. ( MoparAl )

Went into London last nite for the Chealsea Cruise. Its on last Sat of every month, you park on and cruise on the bridge in West London ( posh part ) the idea is to cruise around Chelsea and do burnouts on the bridge ! this cruise has been going for i believe 50 years now.

Mufflers ? what are they ? LOL :)

Thanks for the photo's Roger, ive got to also say there were some cars ive never seen before either, great day mate.

Sorry DAN IT IS CLOUD GREY

This a bit of a blow as i bought these from Seaplym on Ebay advertised for 48 to 54 ? i know what ur saying Tim so i will take a careful and thoughtful look at the rims, the caps almost fit, it is so close !

That looks soooo nice !!!!!!!

Well guys, im gonna try and alter the clips somehow, will let you know how it turns out. regarding the colour, i took the car back to my mates yesterday to get it mopped up now the paint had had time to harden, i asked matey what colour did he get to match my Airwing Gray and he gave me the tin............ VOLKSWAGEN GHOST GREY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive just done my front screens with the universal rubber, it's ok but a one piece mould would of been better. Al

That sounds about right, my wheels could be any years ? i will endeavor to make them fit one way or another Lol Been out in car today, there was an advert in our local paper for a new local car meet, todays first meet was at a small local airfield that had a Battle of Britain Day, about 30 cars turned up and scores of spectators, there was three American muscle cars and: THIS BUICK: ME & MY P15: BROTHER-IN-LAW EARLY FORD MISSUS, BROTHER AND SPITFIRE !

Hi guys, picked these nos covers up on USA Ebay a couple of weeks ago, got the delivery tday, fitted ok but my 10" dog caps dont ! i tried adjusting the securing clips on the wheel but didnt feel confident the caps would stay on, have any of you guys had these in the past ?, are there smaller caps for these covers ? thanx Al
