Would there be room for this and a Torqueflite if we left the hood off and put on a pair of zoomies?



I am seriously considering building a street rod or buying a rolling chassis to put this in.

Here is left side clearance with hugger headers on a 360. Zoomies would be mandatory.

I bet you could use those headers and put them on the outside of the rails John!

John has been hard at work with the brake system! Nice clean work I would say!

Keep posting your innovations and ideas. Matt and I made a deal that has my friends and family thinking I need to be committed but Matt is hard at work making a chassis for big tires and the HEMI to fit in. This street rod business is new to me but I think with a lot of time and money I can build a decent rod. I sure am going to miss my Coronet till I hear those zoomies fire to life in a Black big tired 33 Plymouth!

Looking good John! Where did you get your windshield and is it Lexan or glass? Matt should have my modified frame finished next week!

Hey Dave, went with safety glass all the way around. Auto glass guy up in my area cut them. Anxious to see what your frame looks like.

When mocking up the fenders / running boards on my 33, there were some areas that were difficult to reach with a wrench. My solution: Tac welded some 1/4 - 20 nuts to fender wadshers. Bolted up the fender / running board. After everything was located properly, I glass resined the washers in position using an extended handle on a solder brush. Now when I disassemble for painting, the nuts stay in place making reassemble easy and the load is speread over a large area.

Fender bolt up. Glass parts have a great fit up.

Good ideas John and a great looking build so far. I am supposed to go get mine next weekend. Can't wait to get started on it. I already have my tires,wheels,seats and guages picked out.

Cool Dave! Let me know if I can be of any help. BTW, I have several 300's - 10 years newer than yours.

John this is the narrowed version of my frame with the rear tires and wheels I am using. Hope to meet Matt this weekend and do the "swap".

Interesting. Is he making any fiberglass mods to accommodate those monster meats?

The body has been altered to accommodate the large rear tires. This has been a very large project but it turning out very nice. I will post the pictures when its fully completed.
