Same for me on my '58 Belvedere. All of them are useless.

LP2L does NOT mean it's a Plaza, but just that it was manufactured in the Los Angeles plant. Your car is a Belvedere, no doubt.

I would avoid buying a completely disassembled car like this one, mainly for 2 reasons : 1. Unless you have an extensive experience with these cars, you'll be forever wondering how the parts were assembled on the car to start with, and in what sequence. It's always better to have been to one...

The 58 Plymouth are indeed expensive, and that's only the tip of the iceberg! Because any part for those cars (apart from engine and transmission parts) are unobtainium and crazy expensive. More often than not, there's only 1 vendor in the whole wide world, and the price is whatever he decides...

Hello @Big_John. I've posted the picture. What's your advice ?

Of course, here's a picture. In the meantime, I went ahead and drilled a straigth passage into the stud "chamber". I poured penetrating oil, and I'll let it soak for a few days. Then I'll try again the reverse thread extracting tool, if there's no better alternative. BTW, I wanted to remove...

No, the engine is still on the car. But the whole front clip is off.

Hello, I was trying to remove the passenger side exhaust manifold and (of course) after removing them all, the last rusted nut wouldn't move. It's one of the 2 sleeve nuts that are located just above the exhaust pipe connection. The head finally broke, leaving the sleeve inside the hole. I...

On way to do this is to paint the whole section, and then use a rag with paint thinner (or acetone) and then wipe delicately the surface. The paint will stay only in the grooves. I used this technique for the "PLYMOUTH" insignia on the hood of my '58.

Well, first of all, Hollew Brawler carbs are tuned for "raw bare knuckled performance" (Holley's own words), so I would expect that they traded some fuel consumption in order to achieve that. Second point : 600 cfm is a little too big for a 318. As a reminder the rule of thumb is: (cid x max...

Your car is a 1959 Belvedere 2-door club sedan, which was produced at 13,816 units. I'm going to bet it has a slant six engine, since those models were usually economical cars used by trade salesmen. Regarding upgrades, you will find that those Forward Look years (1955-1961) are very poorly...

If I may... Keep the Savoy paint scheme. It's more striking than a Belvedere, and few Savoy hardtops are restored that way.

How do you check its working condition? Just curious.

For about $100 more, I would go the Dr.Diff route: Mopar 8 3/4" (8.75) Clutch Type Sure-Grip ("Powr-lok"). He seems a little bit more serious about the quality of his products than your average eBay seller.

Hello, I am selling a new starter solenoid (from Gary Goers), for: - De Soto, Dodge, Plymouth - L6/V8 - 1956,1957,1958,1959,1960,1961 - for manual transmission (my mistake on ordering) Located in Europe, but I will ship worldwide. 15€ without shipping.

Indeed, the local content for US cars assembled overseas was dictated by economical common sense: for some parts it cost more to import them than to source them locally. It was also a asset to sales, as it could be used in advertisements, to induce the feeling of buying locally (at least...

Outside of the US market, Mopar was always mixing parts from the corporate bin, in order to produce what seemed to be the best idea at the time for a specific market. Consider the case of Benelux countries (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxemburg). In the '50s, you could buy 3 (yes, three) versions of...

Great job ! Thank you very much. Are you going to expand until the '70s ?

Hi everyone, I'm just curious. Why is there 8 bolts and 4 studs (with nuts) on the valve covers assembly to the block ? Do the studs serve a purpose ? Thank you.
