Progress

[MarkAubuchon]

Big Motor Week

1947 P15, finally completed the rear end swap. Found a 1968 Roadrunner, with 355 gears. Rebuilt it, bolted right in, only had to change the rear ujoint. Runs Great. Ready for the Walter P Chrysler show this July in Michigan and the POC Meet in September.

1949 P17 Business Coupe, pulled it out of storeage, added a little gas and fired it right up. Just need to rebuild the front wheel cylinders, clean it up and I am ready for the June Monster Mopar Drag races. Yes I am going to try that again.

1950 Dodge 1/2 Ton. Able to hang all of the front end sheet metal, fenders, inner fenders, radiator core support, etc. amazing what a 12 pack can do to keep you focused. Next step, put the motor in and start painting.

Mark, good to have progress isn't it.

How about some photos of all three vehicles:)

Three cars?! I can barely keep up with one.

Have you added a "meep-meep" horn to compliment the rear on the p15 yet?

[greg g]

you are going to be pulling like 2.25 grearing with the od, is that what you intended??

Hey Mark, sounds like you did good.

The 3.55 does good with my OD. Just can't keep in OD below 40mph. Plus check your speedometer as mine is off 7mph. So when I'm running 50mph on the speedo it is really going 57mph.

I might have to come up to monster mopar weekend this year. I'll be up father's day weekend for a show in Highland, IL. Would be neat to see you car go down the strip.

Greg, good cyphering on the ratio. I have not really had it out on the open highway yet, so not sure how it will run. Also, still considering swapping out the 16's to 15's.
