New guy in the garage
Hey there,
My names Mikey and Im from NJ. Thats right, one of the best places to own a classic car or hot rod.
Anyway I have recently purchased a 1953 Plymouth belvedere 2dr hardtop. Im the 2nd owner. It has a bunch of dealer accessories from 53 on it. The dealer was the original owner.
Well I look forward to talking with you all.

Welcome!!! I hope that "NJ being the best place to own a hot rod" was sarcastic... haha I live in PA, and the ice and salt are terrible on the cars.... gotta keep it locked up 5 months out of the year...

Isn't Summer the second Tuesday in July?
Hey welcome. Buddy of mine had a '50 Plymouth. Kept trying to blow it up so his Dad would get him something sportier. He couldn't kill it.

Welcome to CHR. My ideas for it would be dropped, chopped, channeled, stretched rear wheel openings, IFS, 9" rear, and of course a HEMI in the front.....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

I think Im gunna drop it 2 inches and put a Phillips Proformance duel intake and exhaust manifold on the flathead 6 I have. Flatheads forever!! Then Ill run lakepipes instead of out the back. Upgrade the electrical to 12v alternator. The upgrade hoses and other shit. Nice cruiser.
It is a new aftermarket one, new, but not packaged. It came with the dipstick. Chrome, about 7 1/2" long with a bend in it.
