That's a wrap on the 1940 Plymouth, well almost. Waiting for the radiator to come back fixed and then it's time to get it on the trailer for the owner to pick up. We hope you liked watching us bring back to life this project and will come back to see what we have planned for the fall of 2024.

I'm about half way through the video today and it occurs to me how much work you have done on this car from start to finish. What a tremendous amount of time and effort to get this car to this stage. Not sure what you charge for your time but I bet you have over two month's working on this car. Not sure what is next but I am sure that the owner should be proud and happy with the effort. This car was not a typical ford or chevy and I really like that aspect. Even though I have Ford and Chevy's. Anyway great job and thanks for the video's.

@@joegarage6132 thanks for the kind words. Yes many hours into. If it were a Ford it most likely would be less hours as so much has been done by others and information shared. Lots of aftermarket stuff for Fords and Chevs. A lot less for Mopars so there's more to figure out.

I was looking for this on Thursday night. Glad I’ve found it now. If you had centred the wheels in the fenders first then it’s a snow ball effect with prop shaft and other things like mounting brackets. And like you sat Derek it might be easier or better to re shape the fenders. It’s looking good all the same. I think it deserves shiny paint though. Cheers Tim.

@@timferriss905 Hi Tim, sorry we couldn't get it out on Thursday night. I think re shaping the fenders is the best option. After talking to a few friends this is quite a common issue for a lot of cars from the 40s and 50s when putting larger wheels than stock. In a lot of cases they have to unhook the lower shock mounts, drop the rear, put the wheels on, raise the rear end and attach the lower shocks. I asked them what happens if you have a flat, they said that's what you have AAA or CAA towing for!

@@timferriss905 the owner used to be a body man so he plans to do the rest of the metal prep, fill, and paint. He's just not keen on metal work.

@timferriss905 Месяц назад

I understand. And some people hate body and paint prep.

That fellow has had it modified correctly . It’s going to be a nice cruiser . Unfortunately a Mopar heart is not installed .

The only thing wrong with this car is that it"s not headed to my garage. I had a really nice 41 Plymouth coupe that I sold over 50 years ago and i still kick myself in the butt for selling it,

@andreamills5852 Месяц назад

12:00 Is that a trailer tire and rim ?

@coldstreamrodshop Месяц назад

@@andreamills5852 yes it is, that's what I use to move them around in the garage. Not for highway use. The owner has a set of steel rims small hubcaps and wide whitewalls he's putting on.

Car sits real tall should be lower with all that new suspension.

@coldstreamrodshop Месяц назад

@@richardhoutman5261these are very tall cars. It looks a little higher than it is. Right now we have about 5" ground clearance. It has lowered spindles in the front but the springs that came with it seem very stiff so he may have to change those out later. It's one of those things that you have to try and then adjust once all the weight is on the car. If this were a 32-34 Ford I'd get it right first time. Unfortunately most people don't build several 40 Plymouth's so it's a bit of trial and changes.
