Thread: 1937 Plymouth 5 Window Coupe

Tweet

I was finally able to spend a weekend working on my project. I decided to spend a little time on the frame. I am in the process of rebuilding the front suspension (new ball joints, bushings, brakes, etc.) I also got the front half of the frame prepped and painted. I still need to mount the ladder bars so I didn't get to the back half yet.








I also have most of the fuel and brake lines are now run.





Currently the tranny is sitting on the shop floor and the plan is to take it to the builders this week (I hope) to get "beefed up" and rebuilt. A small hitch in that plan is that I need to I get my truck back from the body shop first, since somebody was kind enough to hit it in the parking lot and wipe out the rear quarter, tailgate, and bumper (no note or I'm sorry either.....Jerks....). Although I have to admit that I might have already gotten my tape measure out and measured the backseat of the loaner car to see if I can wrestle the tranny in the back seat for a quick trip (Anybody know how leather seats hold up to tranny fluid???? Just curious......


Anyways my next step is to finishing putting the front suspension together and get the motor sitting in the frame so I can get the drive shaft ordered and the exhaust routed.
