Ulu Posted February 9, 2023 Report Posted February 9, 2023 Who here owns the most radical custom P15? Let’s see them, please! Because radical is (still) my plan. I am still planning to bring this one back from the shell that it has been for years now, and it’s going to come back as a radical custom. I’m a customizer at heart, and this car is not good enough to restore. It was a trophy winner when I bought it but Nothing was original. I drove it over 65,000 miles before I parked it, and so even everything I had rebuilt was pretty worn. So I have set my (stripped) Plymouth aside for many years now, knowing that I would eventually get back to it, but having too many other adventures in between. Motorcycles and sport planes and traveling to Mystic places… Of course I had all kinds of P15 adventures back in the 1980s when it was shiny and fast. You could say I’ve already done that once, and I’m not in a hurry for a do-over. I have a couple of much easier cars that I am going to do first, now that I am done piddling around with bicycles and motorcycles for a while. But my plan to have a radical custom P 15 has not changed. Quote
Eneto-55 Posted February 10, 2023 Report Posted February 10, 2023 Not my car, and nor is it "my thing", but this is the most radical P15 I've ever "seen" (just pictures that my brother sent to me back in 2011.) 1 Quote
Los_Control Posted February 10, 2023 Report Posted February 10, 2023 OMG!!! first thing that pops into my mind is birth control. On a side note, I think it is great to do whatever you want .... not what others did. 1 Quote
Ulu Posted February 12, 2023 Author Report Posted February 12, 2023 That one’s got a long ways to go… Quote
Veemoney Posted February 12, 2023 Report Posted February 12, 2023 Will hold my thoughts for the finished project. Quote
Eneto-55 Posted February 12, 2023 Report Posted February 12, 2023 I would suppose it has been finished by now, but we all know how a project can be delayed for many years.... (I'm now at almost 43 years since purchase.) But as I mentioned, my brother sent these photos to me back in 2011. (He didn't tell me where he got the photos - but I assume he saw them on the internet.) Quote
Los_Control Posted February 12, 2023 Report Posted February 12, 2023 Sometimes I wish I kept my keyboard to myself .... or had a rewind button. Honestly I appreciate the skill & effort that went into the car .... way above my skill level today. Some cars simply should not be chopped ... imho. Seriously, just my opinion. The rest of the work is not terrible .... That car needs a new roof line. Anyone been watching this dude build this 35 Dodge? .... He claims it was 35 Dodge parts anyways ... then later he bought a 35 Desoto for parts. He has done the roof maybe 3 times so far to get it where it is? I am not against chopping a roof ... I just think some style needs to go with it. Quote

I dont know where he gets his energy from. Quote
