  1. Thanks. I will look into them. What size of belts is everyone running? 60" 75"? Oh also is there anyplace to buy some original or reproduction fabric? Doesn't have to be the full covers. Could just be pieces. I know of a few upholstery shops in the area.
  2. Wow thank you all for the warm welcome!!! I am super excited to get this car. Can't believe the deal I got. The color is cool. It does look like milk chocolate. The previous owner said it was called tabaco brown. I wonder if that is correct... I need to have some foam put in the drivers side front seat, its a bit warn, but after 65 years I guess that is expected. I will then have an apholstry shop fix up the other parts. Other then the seams it is in great shape. I need to have the drivers front arm rest repaired as well as its shot. Some of the other things that need addressed is to adjust the brakes, the pedal is to low for my taste, I like it high and tight. I would also like to drain and fill the auto trans oil. I have a shop manual for the car and it calls for 10w oil if I remember correctly. I am sure I will have many more questions. I have already driven it about 40 miles. It is a blast. The most urgent thing right now is to get 5 seat belts installed, so I can take my whole family out for a drive. Any suggestions on this? I just want the lap belts. Oh and the silly "cold" air intake. The factory oil bath is in the trunk. I will be putting that back on very soon. Thanks for the link to the plymouth club as well. If you are in the KC area let me know!
  3. All, I am excited to find this place. I am new to Chrysler but not to 50's vehicles. I am reluctantly selling my 52 GMC truck. But with my growing family we can no longer all fit into the truck. 1st son is 4, 2nd is about 2, and now the 3rd a little girl will be here in about 6 months. Here is one of my threads for my GMC truck. Enjoy. http://talk.classicparts.com/showthread.php?t=12386 I found this awesome example of a 1950 Chrysler Windsor. It is supposed to have only 38k miles. From what I see I would say it is accurate. It sat in a garage from 1971 until 2014. A guy bought it from the grandson and went through the car, got it running and driving safe. His wife wanted a little sports car so he sold it to me. He lowered the front a bit. I am sure I will have a lot of questions coming up about different things, but so far so good. Car runs and drives great. So now on to some pics. I will get some more up soon! My youngest son saying cheese
