That is a Dodge crusader 2 door post. Only sold in Canada and was built in Windsor. Alas, it looks to be too far gone. I'd need a southern Plymouth body and Dodge front clip and a fistful of cash to save that one! Thanks for posting Randy.
Comes with (2) parts cars ... I wonder what they look like?

Todd did this Canadian "PLODGE" originally offer a HEMI motor as an option for the Canadian market? It says it is a Desoto Hemi. I would find it hard to imagine a Hemi being offered here in Canada, especially with the very low end Canadian Dodge or "PLODGE". For those out there that do not know what a PLODGE is, it is a Plymouth with a Dodge front clip........ hence Plodge. What about it Todd, was there a Hemi? George.

No HEMI's George. Base engine was the 251 flattie (Canadian cars got this "big" truck 6- a great engine. U.S cars got the 230). The Poly 313 was optional.

It's amazing how much people (even in the Chrysler world) screw up their engine names.
There was a guy on PEI that was selling, according to his description, a '65 Fury II with an original 318 "wedge" engine in it. It was not called a "wedge", it was a "poly" or "wide block". He still insisted that it was called a "wedge".
