Thank you, 4spdragtop! I´m glad you liked itWelcome aboard Ruben very cool car and very cool history lesson! Great work!
Would you happen to have pics of the hearse?
Well, the guys who sold me the engine were parting out 3 hearses. I have only a pic of this (I´m not sure if it was the donor of my engine but all of them were very similar). Here they were transforming it into a pickup to decorate a burger.Thank you for your welcome, 66fyssh!!
Thank you, rumblefish360! Yes, I think it´s one of the most luxurious interiors of the A bodies
as Barreiros and Chrysler Spain intended to make a car from the upper segment of the marketThe Dodge 3700GT was one of the most used models in Spain to be transformed into hearse... We could say that it was the Spanish Cadillac (cadillac was a rare car here), which explained its success as a hearse. On the other hand, in Spain classic hearses are not as valued as in USA or northern Europe so sadly their destiny is in most cases being parts cars. This is another model of 3700 hearse which fortunately was saved by being bought by a Finnish classic hearse loverI LOVE the hearse! I'm cringing at the pics of him cutting it lol. Those are very cool and thanks again for the history lesson and pics.
Thank you 318willrun!! Yours looks cool too.Welcome!! Nice car !!!
Thank you PlymCrazy. I made many other little improvements like rear stabilizer bar, new tie rod ends, silentblocks, right mirror same style than the original left one I had to search in France, where it was manufactured, fixed A/C system... This was my first classic car and I have made a lot of friends fixing and taking care of it, we even built the Club Dodge of Spain and although only 30.000 dodges were manufactured in Spain from 1965 to 1977 and there are not many survivors we have made a good community of friends all along Spain.
