Default 1950 Chyrsler with Duramax swap
Well i posted this in fabrication and thought you guys might get a kick out of it

I will keep updating as more gets done.

Hey guys! Well my brother and his friend are putting a duramax engine in a 1950's chrysler and i thought id share the progress thus far. So here are the pics he has from his cell phone and i will update as more gets done. The motor setup is a LB7 with a 6 speed allison transmission. Going to most likely have a single 5'' side pipe with a kick out at the end.

Before when they started



Chopping the roof



Chopped



Motor out



Motor being mocked up



and inside the car



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well i stopped by the shop today with a real camera to get some pics for you guys. Here they are!

Car again



New rear suspension being installed now



And now some motor pics and of the tranny mount.





















---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Updated pics for you guys!

That is awsome! We have a 71 Nova we had always thought about doing something similar with, very cool to see someone else go thru with it.
