You got to work them every once in a while to keep the fluids flowing. Is that about a 52 Dodge or plymonth in your drive? Thanks for the pictures>

2-Ton It is a 50 Dodge Coronet. Probably not going to get to fixing it till spring. It does run and drive but it needs some TLC (don't they all  ). Very Cool Pics! Thanks for sharing!

So now I must ask, is that a 51 Ford parked behind the Dodge? | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 38 New Guy | New Guy Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 38 | Those are great pictures and that is a very cool truck. So now I must ask, is that a 51 Ford parked behind the Dodge? Nope, it's a 53 Willys Aero. I have been trying to sell it but no one wants a rusted out unibody car even if its 300 bucks. So I've been slowly patching it up. | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,112 'Bolter | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,112 | Wow, that is a rare one. Is it a real unit body? | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 719 'Bolter | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 719 | Missed the chance to play in the snow with 'Tater, she's still sick with a bad regulator & fried jenny.  But I have chains waitin for her if we have a mess like we did when it dumped on us!  1956 GMC 370 dump " 'Tater "1970 VW Volksrod "the Black Bomber" 2007 Chevy Avalanche 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, 2005 Harley Davidson FLHTCUI I dig all cars, old and new, whether they were hammered out of American iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things. But thats just MY opinion! :P

Stumbled on this scan of a 1954 Popular Science . They even mention the Willys Aero model. Kinda cool! My '70 Firebird has the 'subframe' up front...so even 15yrs later they couldn't shake the whole 'frame' idea. Is that because the V8 is so heavy? Seems cars now-a-days have this down, though. | | |
