I found a pretty cherry 1957 dodge pickup locally. It was factory v8 and auto truck but the motor is gone. I have a 360 , would the stock 315ci poly mounts work with my 360ci ? What kind of trans came in that ?
It could have had a cast iron Powerflyte, two speed, or a cast iron torqueflyte three speed, with no park on either one Look at the pushbuttons or on the dash shifter and see what it shows If it has a N,D,L. and R button it is a two speed powerflyte, if it has D,2,1,N and R it is a torqueflyte Let us know what you find

Went and looked at it today. The body is in amazing shape. Only rust is some pinholes in the floorboard. Original paint! Two tone gold and white hood and the top of the cab. No motor, but the trans and axle , drive shaft are all still in it. Im thinking i would have to some new style peddle. Those straight push brake and gas are funky. I wonder of i could use the assemly out of my valiant and the mastrr cylinder? Would make one super cool hot rod for sure.
When it comes to hot rodding, all things are possible Time, money, effort and skill being the limiting factors
