Bob,
I had my 55 Plymouth 6 cylinder
rebuilt by an excellent Mopar rebuilder for about $1200.00 in 1996. (He
also does Hemis and other makes and is currently "restoring" a 55 Plymouth 2
door wagon and going to install a Hemi in it. He has the Studebaker maybe
a 55 or so with a fuel injected hemi in it). I'm located in North West
Pennsylvania.

In. Flathead
Hi, folks
Still looking for a car my daughter can
drive. Called a fellow named "Ed" in Flint MI (don't know if he belongs
to the list). He's sellling a '56 Belvedere 4 door. It's a 6 mated
to a powerflight but the engine is out of the car and needs to be
rebuilt. Body is good with sound floor and rockers and a repaint to red
and white (not original colors) Interior is good. He has been
quoted $1500 - 2000 to rebuild the engine. That sounds like a reasonable
range to me. Any thoughts? I seem to recall that Dan Morton has
his flathead 6 rebuilt. With a 6 cyl and a powerflite she shouldn't be
tempted (or able) to rack up too many speeding tickets!
Regards,
Bob McGrath

cylinder)
