Glad to find a forum dedicated to this era of dodge!! Quote
randroid Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Jason, Any car with a chicken-looking-thingy in the back window is a car that belongs on this forum, lol. It's a real beauty (the car, not the chicken-looking-thingy) and thanks for the pics. Are the flames yours or did the car get to you like that? -Randy Quote
Greenbomb Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 My '50 plymouth CC will look alot like that, except for shiny paint. Welcome-You'll fit right in. Quote
58prostreet Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Jason Welcome to the forum. I'm south of you a bit in Va. Beach. I have a '52 dodge wayfarer. I've still got original 230 in it, but have switched to 5 speed, Explorer rear, rack and pinion, disk brakes etc. I have a lot parts left over . PM me if u are in need of anything. Bob Quote
JASON WHARTON Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Posted July 4, 2011 Thanks lol the chicken in the back window is a old garfield that sticks in the window. Far as paint I sprayed it black and did the flames and striping. here is a picture of the day I brought it home its a very solid car for our area. http://www.jasonwhartonart.com Quote
