Not mine. Not in love with all the customizing, but hey, it may be your cuppa tea...
BTW, if this section isn't the right one for C-body "ancestors," I'll be glad to post elsewhere, like General Discussion.
1951 Plymouth

Back in '75 or so, I helped a friend extract a car similar to this from a back yard and get it running. Talking to the long-time Chrysler service manager at the local dealership, the early Hemi was a drop-in for these Plymouths, in place of the flathead 6. Same bolt pattern on the bellhousing as the early Hemi, which was used on the LA motors, too. Just needs front suspension spring upgrades for the additional weight.

THOSE were the Chrysler products a taller business man could wear his hat in while driving. Not having to take it off to get into the car, either! For the size, the cars have a lot of utility and interior space.
 
These last K.T. Keller era cars are really dull, nothing works for me from the Looks except for the Business coupes.
