HELP !!!!!! I have owned a 51 Dodge Wayfarer Roadster Convertible for 30 years, of which the last 20 I let it sit due to family, work, far away storage, no good excuses. I promised my daughter that car 30 years ago. Now ready to get it back on the road. Motor bad ( more antifreeze than oil when drained ), leak in transmission seal, fluid drive leaks, broke front spring. Anyway, I know I can fix brakes, exhaust, and basics. What I need is a rebuilt or good used 6 cylinder and transmission that will fit this car. Does not need to be 51, just close to original that will fit the car. Want this to be a cool driver. I even have an Offenhauser dual carb intake manifold to put on car ( maybe? ). Any help in locating drive components is appreciated. I live in Indiana, just outside Cincinnati. If I am unable to locate a motor and transmission, any ideas ????
Thank you all for your help. I have always loved Mopar ( first OLD car was 39 Desoto. Never heard of a Desoto, but it had suicide doors and running boards......)
