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 ?
