392 Hemi, push-button Torque Flight, 1949 Merc. rear, 4.27:1. Built in San Jose CA in 1961. Driven, maintained, improved since then. I purchased the car 16 years ago after good friend and previous owner, John Millar, of Santa Clara CA, passed away. He owned and improved the car for 27 years. This is the real deal, e-ticket ride, black plate California car, on the cover (small picture) of Nov. 1974 Rod Action and May-June 1988 Hot Rod Mechanix. Started monthly, driven infrequently. Time to pass on to the next custodian. John rebuilt the motor and trans., changed from six-twos to two fours, added the beautiful headers and found an original Dodge Brothers grill shell and emblem. I changed the trailing arms to thick wall tubing (twisted up the original set), rebuilt and rebalanced the twelve inch drive shaft and installed new brakes, cylinders, drums and hubs on the front end of the car. The car always starts, idles, runs strong and shifts hard. It won't shift into reverse until warmed up (since I've owned the car), there is no speedometer and the tach quit. It could use new king pins. Stop by, we'll go for a ride. I've scared a lot of people with this car. Russ Young 530-534-5741 .
