Vehicle History:
As far as I know from pictures given to me when I bought the Car, the Car originally came from New York as a 318 Automatic. It came from the factory black and white, with a black and white interior. The Car was bought and moved to Nebraska, and partially restored in 2002. It was painted Performance Red, (wich is very close to Toreador Red), with a White top. The original 318 and Torqueflite Automatic were removed and the Car was outfitted with a 56 Chrysler 354 Hemi, bored out to fit 10.5:1 compression 392 pistons. PAW supplied the Hemi parts. The Transmission is now a 65 vintage 727 3 speed Automatic. It rolls on four new Coker repro 800-14 Silvertown Tires. All the chrome was professionally polished. As a whole, the Car is by no means perfect, but looks sweet! THANKS SO MUCH, Charlie, Pat and Suzanne!!!!
