I wish I could've snagged up that '53.

Any chance you know Kenneth Carter from Pasadena/Houston/Deer Park area?

Know the name not him personally....

Yeah it was a creampuff to drive, everything was stellar on it, 70mph it was like butter...

That's my grandpa from the the "other branch" of my family tree. Loves cars and knows handful of car guys around that area. I recall one of his friends had a few 350Zs with SBCs in them. First time I ever rode in a 10-second car was one of those on spray. I think even his daughter's first car was an "SBC350Z".

I've always wanted an old car like that- 'bagged, A/C, stereo, EFI V8... all the modern amenities. But, not with a perfect show car body. Too much delicate maintenance.

Well I guess its time for some updates.

Still have the Banger Coupe...

COUPE 100.jpg


Then took the 56 apart, 1.5" lower on the front, wheel and tire change and paint and body worked it in the garage to where its at right now. Not perfect but a better look all around I think. It is the lowest Dodge C series on stock suspension and steering that has been modified. Steering box raise, shortened the column etc, Reversed the front leaf spring eyes, alot of tweaks went into this redo...
