Kenny J.'s Excellent Big M Adventure
Author: Kenny J. (Show all albums)

I took a drive up to one of the places where Forward Look cars go to die and donate their parts for the others still on the road. Here are some pictures from my May, 2009 visit.

I plundered this '58 Plymouth wagon without mercy, taking door glass and overdrive components, plus the overdrive, speedometer and parking brake cables as "cores" to have new ones made. I would have taken the windshield, too, if it wasn't "de-lamenating" around the edges.

I suspect that part of the reason for not seeing many manual transmission '57-'59 Plymouths on the street is because John and M'Lisa have most of them at their place. This one has a bellhousing for an armrest.

The tail lights on this Caddy indicate it is a '63 rather than a '64.

Another vintage Mercury sporting a "big M'.


This big boat was one mighty fine highway cruiser back in the day.

A '59 Olds sedan. The stripped Chrysler Letter Car to the left was built with a manual transmission.

Sorry people, but I believe the '59 Buick is the most evil looking American car ever built, more so than either the '59 Dodge or the '58 Plymouth Fury. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

Another '63 Caddy. John has many GM vehicles in his inventory, but very few of them are Chevrolets. In fact, a '58 parts car is the only Chevy I recall seeing in the yard.


The front of the '63 Cadillac, with a first generation Charger in the foreground.

Black is a nice color for '57-'59 Plymouths. This sedan has many decent parts left.

Mercury's version of the flat top with a wrap-around rear window.

John is a source for used brake drums if the need arises.
