    Subframe on a 59 Plymouth

    I bought a 96 Dakota to subframe my 59 Plymouth. I've never done it before but excited to jump into it. My main question though is do I need to have the v8 setup in the Dakota clip to get the ride height I need. Another question is will v6 shocks from the Dakota effect the ride. Thanks for the help.

    engine starts but wont run

    It has points and was running before the trans swap. It did sit a few months though. I'll check the points later today.

    engine starts but wont run

    It runs smooth till I let off the gas then slowly dies. No vacuum leaks that I can see the idle needles were taken out and put in and backed out two full turns. Pluggs correct. I tried to run it open choke no luck haven't tried it closed.its a Holley doudle pumper and I have Manuel brakes

    engine starts but wont run

    OK tried the sea foam nothing so I rebuilt the carb nothing. What else could it be not sure how much fuel exact but have pressure but I have. My distributor hasn't moved so my timing should be the same. Anyone else got ideas maybe the choke.

    chopping the top on a 53 dodge truck

    I know this question gets asked a lot but does anyone have threads on chopping a 53 dodge truck. I've never done it before. Maybe some opinions on laying the front window back vs splitting the roof. I've seen other 53 dodge trucks chopped but not sure how much to chop. Thanks guys
