Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 Took the plymouth on a ~250 mile trip today with our region of the plymouth club. The rest of the group is continuing down to Iowa for 2 more days of sight seeing. Our first stop was the Traverse de Sioux History center in St Peter. Didn't take too many shots there just Leo on this tractor. And then a photo of a photo of a dodge truck in a flood. 1 Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Posted July 18, 2015 Next up we toured Teds Tuna Boats in New Ulm. He's a car dealer with mostly mopar project cars. Good thing he wanted a lot for the 55 Dodge royal lancer or I might have a new project. This one is a running driving all original car from TX. It was quite nice. 1 Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Posted July 18, 2015 Then we went to Mankato for a look at Unique Specialty and Classic cars. Lots of neat stuff there. I didn't snap a picture of it but they were just getting a 1915 buick running in their shop. That one wasn't for sale they were just working on it. Here's a few I did snap Look what I spyed out their window Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Posted July 18, 2015 Both of these are low mileage original cars. I believe the charger was 50K and the challenger 21K. and something they were working on in another area Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Posted July 18, 2015 Just a little info on the car. It was about 90 here for the high temp. Car never got above 180° on the gauge even when we spent about 20min in stop and go traffic in afternoon rush hour. The only low of the whole day the "new" speedometer I swapped in reads 70 at 60 and by the end of the trip was getting stuck at about 10 after coming to a stop. Quick tap on the glass would bring it to 0. Quote
pflaming Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 Nothing like taking the old cars on the road. Thanks for the pics. Found a thumper oil can with flex hose, $20.00 too much at antique store. Better price at flea market, got two there last week for $5.00 for two. Quote
blue p15 Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 Sounds like a great day! Thanks for sharing it with us. Quote
61farnham Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 Thanks for posting the photo's, Teds Tuna Boats looks a good a place to have a nose around. Quote
Bingster Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 Those are really great pics! Wish that yard was near me. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 that 55 is a sharp looking profile...but I think my heart string would be at snagging a wagon.. Quote
Young Ed Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Posted July 18, 2015 that 55 is a sharp looking profile...but I think my heart string would be at snagging a wagon.. He certainly had a selection of those. Can't say there were many in the group I'd turn down including the 58 chevy Quote
