'59 Plymouth Forum

Today I signed up Faulkner and Valerie for Carlisle 2024. We're goin'! Are you? If you're bringing your '59, you'll no longer find 59PLYMOUTH.NET as a entry in the Club dropdown - that's because we should all be registering with a FORWARD LOOK NETWORK Club affiliation, so there will be no charge for...

Then again: Those studs were recommended for the 10" drums. So I guess that is a question for Matthew - I'll try to get him to comment.

I don't know how much or how often Matthew reads the Forum these days, Mike. Where is the loose fit? Is it in the holes in the drum around the studs? This from the article: Here's where the fun begins. You now need to press in new studs. The stock lug bolts on these old Mopars are 1/2-20 UNF thread ...

Mike, is your question does the hole in the center of the 2955R drum clear the hub as outlined here ? hub.jpg The answer to that is yes. However, what doesn't fit is the drum itself, without alteration. The depth of the drum is deeper than that of your original drum. Matthew suggests that it might b...

To me is just wasn't worth changing out the rear axle. Just to be clear, Art - the approach described here doesn’t advise changing out the rear axle. It advises separating the hub from the drum, pressing in new lug bolts, mounting it permanently to the axle with the original nut, and procuring drum...

I’m trying to get your answer, Mike - stay tuned.

These clips are from Season 25, Episode 7 (2024). Only the '59 Plymouth bits are included! Thanks to Rick Depriest for the notification - and thanks to Victor Coiro, whose stunning '59 Fury appears in this episode.

Thanks for the good wishes, Bernie! Yes, you were a very early subscriber... Time flies, and all that. The POC Bulletin just arrived and I see Dan has taken the "Picture Is Worth 1000 Words" adage to heart for this issue. Time to get back to the printed words and pictures now. For those wh...

Thank you for your contributions, and your faithful membership Rick!

Maybe we can't compete with Facebook's immediate gratification, but where else are you gonna find nothing but '59 Plymouth stuff in one place? So we will keep on doing what we are doing,...

Goofy alien Jerry Lewis lands on Earth, decides to try the suburban way of life for awhile, angering his superior officers in space. Screenwriter Edmund Beloin adapted Gore Vidal's play, but it doesn't seem directly tailored for Lewis' mugging talents--which is a blessing. The material is actually ...

One of the finest examples of smart, satiric comedy-drama ever created for the screen. Jack Lemmon (in amazing comic form) plays a working stiff in Corporate America--via New York City--whose bachelor apartment inadvertently becomes a love-nest for amorous, married executives. The film is extremely...

These clips from the movie focus on a rare 1959 "PlySoto" - a Desoto Diplomat Deluxe, built for the export market. This is one of those sleeper films, a good one that is not very well- known.....but should be. The movie has all the features of a good noir, most of all a feeling of impendin...
