Location: Hell's Outhouse - a.k.a. Buckeye, Arizona | Don't know if you seen this guy's video before or if he may even be a member of this board, but, among the things he posts to YouTube is how he attempts to get "junk" to run through spit, bailing wire and sheer determination.
He's a Canadian who, among his fleet and aside from the '57 Plaza featured in the video below, also has three 1958 FL's: '58 Dodge CRL 4 dorr hardtop, a '58 Plymouth Savoy 2 door hardtop and even a 1958 Dodge Mayfair 2 door hardtop.
Anyways, here's his latest challenge to get running - a Canada-crispy 1957 Plymouth Plaza 4 door sedan freshly rescued from the crusher (3-part video - below is part 1) :

Location: Peoria< IL | Thanks for sharing. Hope many others got to see these, Scott's Cold War Motors videos are always good fun. Its like getting to work on a project without spending any money or skinning your knuckles. I love all the Mopars in his fleet, and best of all they all run!
What I don't get is how clean some of them are (especially the trim) for being in Canada. Even with all the snow some aren't as bad as some of the cars we see here in the midwestern US.
Thanks again! |

Love seeing those cars gt life breathed back into 'em..... |

| That car is very much like the car I came home from the hospital in. Dad had a black 57 Plaza 4DS when I was born, but his was a ex cop car with a 318 and an automatic transmission.
His other car was a 61 Valiant. Both have a special place in my heart. |
