Someone save the bee!500$ would get it I bet if he got the Plymouth for that... I have no room but some needs to save it.. or offer 3000 and take everything to keep them from the crusher. Old tow trucks that feature a Holmes wrecker bed are highly highly collectible!
 
First wash.....gonna get the shop vac and broom out here in a bit and start cleaning under the hood and interior

Nice project! I’ve got a ‘57 Savoy lawn ornament wayyy too far gone. Destined to be a couch or wall art in the shop.

That’s a Poly. Go through the carb. Change the fluids and it should light up. But first make sure it turns over by hand. If not put penetrating oil in the cylinders - there are threads all over FBBO as to the best penetrating oil to use and how to get it to turn. Polys seem to run forever.
 
If the radio starts playing old rock 'n roll and starts to restore itself be wary...
 
Idk where I would findone
Good luck. They are a pretty tough get due to all the guys w/ 57 plymouths changing their cars into "christines" or just 58's. They pop up on eBay every now and then for 300-500 bucks depending on condition.
There is a guy on Facebook who makes plastic ones.
 
Do y'all know if there is another year Mopar with disc brakes, that I can just swap spindles with?
