  1. Ok I’m in the process of getting a title for the shell of a 48 Dodge business coupe that I purchased before I bought my one that had been hot rodded. It currently has a 270 polyhead motor sitting in it that’s not running. During this time a good running 440 with a 727 transmission kind of fell into my lap. I know it’s not original, but if I plan on putting a nova front clip under it or some other front suspension graph/upgrade would a 440 just be too much mass to try to squeeze under the hood?
  2. I'm redoing the brakes on my 46 Desoto barn find and want to replace the wheel cylinder pins. Bernbaums is out right now. Does anyone know of another source for them?
  3. Can you tell by the pics if it’s a New Yorker or a Windsor, or what model it is?
  4. Oh don’t worry, I wouldn’t scrap it. I was planning on offering parts to anybody here or selling the body to whoever wants it.
  5. I have found a 48 Chrysler club coupe with a fluid drive transmission with overdrive but no title for 800$. Will that transmission and overdrive fit my 47 Desoto club coupe?
  6. I have a 270 poly-head out of a 56 Dodge with a fluid drive transmission. How hard would that be to drop into a 48 Dodge business coupe?
  7. I don’t know if I want to get it or not. I have my plate full with other projects right now. Still have my 46 and 47 Desoto’s and my 2 Dodge business coupes to deal with
  8. Looking through craigslist I saw a guy that had some old mopar parts for sale. In one pic I saw an old Suburban and what looked like another one beside it. I texted him and he said he still had the Suburban and an old Dodge station wagon too. Is this a Dodge or another Suburban?
  9. I know some of you guys may not like it because it’s set up for a small block chevy, but right now it has nothing in it so I can put whatever I want in it. My birthday isn’t til Friday but I got myself an early birthday present!
  10. Who makes a good car cover that fits a 1948 Dodge business coupe?
  11. Where are you located? I’m fixing to get two 48 Dodge sedans for parts cars that may have suitable bumpers you could use.
  12. Did the D-24 sedans, coupes and business coupes all share the same frames?
  13. Which spindle adapters do you need for a 46-48 Desoto?
  14. I know where one is sitting in a junk yard. I believe its mostly complete.
  15. 48 And purchased my first mopar 2 years ago. My 46 Desoto taxi. This was quickly followed by my 47 Desoto coupe and another 46 Desoto I found in a barn. Now I have 2 48 Dodge business coupes and 2 48 Dodge sedan parts cars. My first vehicle was a 54 Willys M-170 front line ambulance. God I miss that old slow thing!
  16. Would a something like a Dewalt 4 inch side grinder with a cutoff wheel work?
  17. What do you guys use to cut away old metal and rot like when you need to replace rockers, etc?
  18. I have a 46 Desoto Custom Sedan and I need a carb kit for it. It’s a Ball&Ball carb made by Carter. It say 6-431 on the throat of the carb. Where would be the best place to get a kit for it and do I need a dash pot plunger for it when I rebuild it
