Looks the same, $100 buy it now. Shipping could be an issue. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1955-1956...1QQcmdZViewItem My neighbor also has a 39 Plymouth 2-door sedan he wants $1500 for. It's got a Camaro subframe under it, but definitely a project. Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

The cost your pay for shipping would make up for the clean, complete rides that are out here for the taking. I posted a few of each brand, just about 3 minutes of searching. You can of course, put chryslers engines in any of them. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/995992667.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/993592229.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/992140908.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/988621959.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/988791695.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/993855884.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/995140201.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/993749959.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/993551455.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/scz/cto/990431191.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/937639505.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/990105630.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/989366924.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/991241897.html [IMG]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/migsbig/Hippo_skull_dark-1.jpg[/IMG]

The problem I see with that though is the body line and headlight areas. It wouldnt be a simple process to get a good 4"-6" section outta the middle of it. Otherwise I like this front end even better than the earlier 48 to 55ish nose. I think there is more style here. Plus I think one of these could easily accept a 61 Chrysler grille and headlight treatment.

Plus I think one of these could easily accept a 61 Chrysler grille and headlight treatment. That's what I was thinking, the front end is different, not terrible. It just needs the classic hot rod treatment, find a grill that does it justice and it would be cool. Throw in a small Hemi, not necessarily a 354/392 but an old Desoto Hemi and it would really be cool and not another belly button An association of men who will not quarrel with one another is a thing which has never yet existed, from the greatest confederacy of nations down to a town meeting or a vestry.

Pm Me and I can check to see if it is still there. It was solid and pretty complete and a two door as I recall.
