    I haven't been here for sometime. But life takes many turns and I am back. I have finally gotten my 50 Plymouth wagon on the road this past mid July.It is chopped 4 inches and hood is louvered. Also had a good friend who has a auto glass shop here in town do my widows in a smoke.
    It has and Heidts independent rear, Fatman front end with MS2 suspension. A small block Mopar with 727 auto. I built the dash and console and am still in the middle of doing the interior. But the main thing is it is insured and tagged and has been to a few shows.

    You're excused. Looks like you've really been busy and the wagon looks great. As I often repeat, my first car was a 1949 Dodge Coronet coupe. As much as I dream about it I can't believe I never bought another and built a custom. I'll just dream about yours. Nice!(y)

    Absolutely awesome wagon. I looked at a '51 Plymouth years ago. I've always loved that body style. It looks right with the chopped top.
    Is that a Jag rear end with the inboard disc brakes?
