Nothing any time soon gonna hit the swap meets next Summer and look for a glass front clip and some new quarters but not in a hurry on it. Also got a Baja bug recently that I'm fiddling with but the regal and the Baja are next after this Plymouth runs and drives
PS the vert is not mine

Mines a 66 so it has both undesirable suspension types swing axle and ball joint front but gonna try to have it out this summer. I also miss the one I had when I was younger. Really need to start getting out and enjoying my cars rather then being endless project's, maybe I'm getting old lol

Like all good things the slant 6 is making a come back, you might want to put yours back in.....:)

I have heard talk of that. The slant is long sense gone into the great metal dumpster in the sky(not really I gave it to an old boy to put in a duster) bad thing is it'll be made by Fiat/Chrysler. I'm not a fan of the new stuff even the demons. I really like the thought of an inline six but it seems Dodge owners would probably keep it stock with no demand for aftermarket goodies to make them fast.

My 55 Chevy I'd really like to make a crossflow head out of 2 ls heads and mount them to a Ford 300 i6 bottom end maybe it'll happen some day

Making some progress keep having to wait on little parts that I keep forgetting harness is almost fit. And engine is mostly together just little stuff here and there

Somewhere in Mopar land there are people getting torches & pitch forks cause another one of Mother Mopars children has converted. Very nice job on the install.
