Plenty of bodywork to keep me out of trouble until then.


Hello Ray, this is Ray from B.C. .(Gene is my super-hero.) Not sure if what I am doing is of interest to you but i have done a Dakota front frame transplant on a 1956 Canadian Dodge (Plymouth) two door wagon.
I have used all the Dakota drive train including the Fuel Injected 318 and also have retained all the original wiring for now. I hope to be running this summer (and the last one and the one before that) and will eliminate some unnecessary wires latter.
I have a disjointed rambling build thread on here and with some progress (?) not posted. at :
