Personally, I think the 65 Dodge is a better looking car than the 65 Plymouth.

I think you might need a couple of more supports on that tall scoop. I'm sure it'll want to tear off at high speeds...let me know how it works out as it is.

I was going off of your signature. "604 B1 TS motor ARC power" so I thought you had a B1 motor.

Ok that is where I was getting confused. Is the B1 in the Black 65 or the 64 Plymouth?
