I just brought this home back in February. Neat old Mopar that has already had some nice upgrades. It'd been fully rewired and converted to 12v and has a nice front disc brake conversion kit on it. The only thing I wasn't real crazy was the semi-auto trans and the Fluid Drive. The motor ran excellent and it drove pretty decent but it leaked oil from the front crank seal, the oil pan, the rear main, and the side tappet covers which has made an unbelievable mess underneath. Just a lot of 70 year old dried out gaskets and seals. So the initial plan was to pull the drive train, clean everything up and put a full gasket kit in it and reassemble.
Also decided to ditch the Fluid drive and semi-auto and switch to a regular Plymouth 3 speed bellhousing and trans.
