...... Good on ya Bill, I'll bet your Firesweep turns heads wherever it goes. .....

.............. I have two spare air cooled cast iron torqueflites that both spent time on damp earth at some stage whilst in previous owner storage and have rusted out both pans. In addition it looks like some huge rat has chewed off the dipstick tubes on both trans as well, along with...

........ Not C body I know but an older brother......... Here's a link to my 59 Dodge , not really a Rat Rod, maybe a Rat Car might suffice ? http://www.forcbodiesonly.com/mopar-forum/showthread.php?11349-Photos-of-my-59-dodge It won't have rat mechanicals, I couldn't drive an unsafe car...

....... We got " Plodges " here in Australia as well. These were converted to our Right Hand Drive roads locally at the time and there is also a South African imported RHD '59 Plodge 2 door here as well that I've personally seen .It was brought here from SA about 18 years ago ........

......... Thanks Tallhair, I found one on Evilbay at a price that was reasonable. An old Weiand from the 60's that has cast into it "Say Why-And " I got for a bit over $120. Looks to be nearly new or had very little use in it's years so I'm pretty happy with it. It probably doesn't flow as...

Would anyone have an aluminum intake to fit a 361 B block for sale ? I have a 361 here from a 59 Desoto but it came intake-less and where I hail from I have no hope in hell finding a replacement here. I'd like to get the 361 running after pulling the heads and a clean up. Was supposed to be...

\ ........... Did CHP Police have heavier butts than general duties CA Police ??:icon_eyes:

You could try John at Big M auto in Williams CA maybe ??

I have a 59 Dodge Coronet, not sure whether it's the same suspension setup as your '61 ?? On it's way to me now is a disc brake setup from a 78 Dodge Aspen that's "supposed " to be a relatively easy conversion ???. Though some do say easy, others say not so easy, so I wont really know until I...

........ Here's a random pic I found.......shows the rear seat back with these dips.

Some ( or most ) 2 doors seem to have seats with a low dip in the middle of the seats at the top.I've bought 3 sets of NOS aftermarket seat covers for my 59 Dodge only to have them arrive and won't fit because of the dips in the top of the seat backs. Mine is just straight along the top. I'll...

.......... If it's of any help my 59 Dodge 4 door has the rounded end seat bases and doesn't have any " dips " in the top of the seat back in the middle either. Seems like the 2 doors have the dips in the seat back in the middle. ................

Thats the word I was trying to think of Bill............ tin canning.................. " fluttery" was all I could think of at the time........ you know what it's like when you get those " memory blanks " !!! Seems to be happening more and more the older I get !!! LOL

Bill, are you going to reproduce the original swage lines and forming lines in the floor ? Just wondering because the floor might be a little " fluttery "and weak without the swage/forming lines and forming put back into it.

......... Yeah, I'm hearin' ya there Dave. Bubble Wrap 2014 legislation has just been introduced into the senate for review !! JK LOL. Some of the rules are common sense but others are just ridiculous. A few months back, maybe a year back ? ( in my state ) we had a gathering of...

.... Yep, same thing here...... there are local production various make rare engines that commanded good prices in the '70's and '80's here that are even rarer now but not pulling the prices of 30 years ago.......... like you said, supply versus demand stuff I guess................

..... Thanks Will, Yep, the bellhousing and converter sealed the deal for me, at the time I was thinking I didn't really need another engine but I''m glad now I bought the lot. Sellers says the 361 looks to have had an early rebuild, has no bore lip in it either. Maybe it's just a low mile...
