Draconarmy Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Just had a 38 dodge sedan dropped in my lap, will post pictures as soon as it arrives. Just wanted to see what I should be aware of. Plan to keep it as close to stock as I can (prefer original restoration over mod) Cant wait to get started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for rust in the trunk near the lid on the floor. That is usually the worst place for rust. When you get it, give us the number on the engine block near the generator on the flat boss just below the cylinder head. Then we can tell you if it is the correct year engine.

Brooklyn Beer Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Yep, water build up on the lower trunk edge is the bad spot and under the running boards / brackets. Good motors and trans. Parts are easy. Every worked good back then and can be made to as good now with just a little time on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
