Northampton’s Roy Walker
has been busy since last Summer, building 2 new Rods
to partner his Pro Street MK1 Cortina.
The first is actually being built for his Wife Michelle,
it’s a 1950 Plymouth Suburban Station Wagon, the
old Flatty has been removed and a Chevy Small Block
with TH350 Box put in its place sitting very nicely
on a Jag front clip, and converted to Right hand drive,
and apart from obvious bulkhead modifications it looks
like it has always been there, but Roy will tell you
it aint quit that easy.
Rear suspension follows from the front with Jag independent,
and boxed n braced chassis bring us up to date.
The interior is to be Dark Blue and Cream and paint
Baby Blue as you can see on the Bulkhead, Roy is hoping
to have the Plymouth out later this year so keep your
eyes peeled, we will put more pictures up as the car
progresses.
Roys own new ride is Rick Beazleys old 35 Coupe which
has undergone one major revamp, the 500 Caddy lump has
gone in favour of a 350 Chevy Small Block with TH350
and the Body has been brought back to life with this
Mint Green Paintwork, the car is booked in as a Debut
Car at Drayton so make sure you take the time to check
it out.
If you like the look of Roys work then give him a call
at his Garage Complete Autocare on 01933 228787 for
any work you need on your Rod.
