The 373 engine code. If you come across a D500 for 1959, the engine code ML382 should be stamped on the pad near the distributor. The 383 was only available as part of the D500 package (as well as the super-super rare Super D500 that had dual quads) The Carter carb should be number 2794S. Fortunately this Dodge has both the correct engine and carb! The rear suspension had 5 leaf springs.

What an awesome find!

For anyone who isn't familiar with the D-500, trust me, it is indeed "real muscle!"

Congrats.
