	Senior Project - 1962 Polara 500 -When Greg and Jeanne M’s daughter needed to do a senior project in 1998, she hit upon the idea of rebuilding her father’s 1962 Dodge Polara 500. It had a 413 CID engine and Torqueflite auto trans as well as power steering and brakes. When Greg had bought it from the original owners in 1966, it had 24,000 miles on the odometer.
	Tale of the Cockroach -1965 Dodge Dart. Now let's get a couple of things straight. Claudette has little or no interest in cars. She drives her little bomb (a Miata) and is happy. Secondly, even mentioning money regarding cars usually sets her off. So, when she suggests that I should look at a car that is for sale – something is up and I'd better pay attention.
	A Rod is Born - 1947 Dodge Panel Truck - Over the years, Dave C. has owned many street rods. On many of them he did extensive work to improve and personalize, but he had never built one from the frame up. He had always wanted to do so.
	Tom's Tub -1923 Dodge Bros. 'Tub' -Ever since high school, he had wanted one and built this one from a rusted hulk to its present beauty. If you’re a car “nut,” you will know that a “tub” isn’t just someplace to soak yourself, but a touring car that is made into a street rod. Tom T. is the proud owner of this lime-green ‘23 Dodge Brothers “tub.”
