This Plymouth's been in our family for over 15 years. We built it to be a solid, comfortable driver that'll cruise at highway speeds. The old blue lacquer paint is fading in places but still very presentable. The hood has been filled, peaked, louvered and painted to match. The chrome and stainless trim is very nice with only a few dings and scratches. The floors have been stripped, sealed and painted with POR15, with new insulation and carpet. The mohair interior, headliner and wood-grained dash are all in excellent condition. The running boards have been professionally re-vulcanized. The electrical has been updated to 12V and the car entirely rewired with a new panel and Optima battery. Engine: Later model 1949 Plymouth P18 flathead six with Offy dual carb manifold, rebuilt Carter carbs, Phillips split dual exhaust manifold, and Crane ignition. It runs great. Transmission: Rebuilt three-on-the-tree. New clutch, pressure plate and throwout bearing. Chassis: Fatman dropped spindles and disk brakes in front, with Eaton coil springs and new shocks. Rebuilt Ford 8 inch rear end with 3.50 highway gears and new brakes. Posies Super-Slide rear springs and new shocks. BFG radial tires. It’s smooth and comfortable. If you’re looking for a clean, older car with updated mechanicals that’s ideal for long, comfortable road trips, you couldn’t do better. We’re asking $14,750 or near offer.
