I just got my second Mopar car, '73 satellite sebring, usually a Cadillac person. My first was a 64 Dodge polara, with the poly 318 and push button automatic, but, I figured I cant base all of these cars on the pain in my ass the polara was.
Trying to find a used running motor for it now, I traded a sportbike for it, and the guy I got it from thought a tune up and what not would have it road worthy, but, turns out the No.1 piston is shot, blowing oil out, and letting gas into the block, so...yeah.I dont have the time to rebuild this one at the moment, so I figured I'd just drop a running used 318 in it for now, and rebuild the other at a later date. I also decided, this car is in great body shape, so I'm going to sell my 300zx turbo and dump all the cash into making this car as close to like new again as I can. I dont mind driving beaters,lol, but it's time for something nice.
I am sure to have alot of noob questions as time goes along,lol.
