  1. I sell Harleys so I get it. I'm not knocking metrics but they definitely lack a certain something... (balls)

  3. I dig what your putting down. The factory flat is gone... unfortunately... thought about the 318 though. Just trying to see what people have done and which road I want to head down. I like the idea of hot rodding with what they would be doing back in the day but I also am thinking about going modern for fuel injection. Just a thought.
  4. I want to clarify that the Chevy straight 6 is not running and literally in the middle of mock up. So, changing power plants is my main focus... knowing how much the hemi will be to rebuild is definitely leaning me away from that engine. I also want to clear up the fact that just because I said I'm an Oldsmobile guy that doesn't mean that I'm not a car guy in general... we all know what happens when you ASSuME. Here is some back story on the car. A friend I've known for 20 years is the 2nd owner of the car and it was purchased from the original owners family after he passed away by his father as a gift for when he was old enough to work on it. So I've seen this car from the time it was under a tarp to running and back to under a tarp... on a side note my father retired from Chrysler after 32 years of service. So I've had an eye on this car for years... I love cars. All makes and models. It's been 10 years since I've had a ride... hot rodding is about getting a car and making it cool. My wife told me to get this car! She wants to help so right off the bat it has become part of the family! St. Louis. But my wife went to semo so we frequent cape a lot...
  5. Oh and I'm a pinstriper and sign painter so it's going to be my own personal canvas
  6. o8958473Hey all I just wanted to say hello and ask a few Questions. A little about myself. I'm an Oldsmobile guy but I recently (as of yesterday) acquired a 1952 Plymouth cranbrook 4 dr. I'm currently on a strict budget and my oldsmobiles were way out of my price range... buddy is cleaning house due to a divorce (C#@t... but whatever) and I landed a his ride for a steal. I called my guru cousin that owns a performance shop and asked for his advice on the car. It is a PROJECT.... Solid body though. Currently has a chevy 230 inline 6 out of a 62 truck so the fire wall has been altered to fit the long Chevy 6. There's been a lot of other mods and I'll post pics later. now the question... Cousin says he has a 270 hemi that is sitting at his shop and he hinted that I could have it. Needs overhaul... but it's there... will it fit? Is it a pain in the ass? I've also heard that the hemi's EXPENSIVE. Is it worth it? It's not going to be a resto... but I do like the period correct hot rodding aspect of doing a project like this. thoughts ?
