anyone see a caddy run with a chrysler pointy on the nose I was think of doing this but the only problem I see with doing it is the weight of the pointy would it still make it nose or would it go to the ground

It won't make it go down. It will probly nose up faster, but you will love every hit you make with a good pointy.

id use the pointy, they look pretty sweet on caddys, and caddys can handle the pressure from it

i know a guy who ran a caddy and instead of notching the rear he just cut a couple of inches off of the rear and welded a bumper to the frame. looked pretty stupid but it ended up doing pretty well
