Had my Impala for a little while now. It's a fun car to bang around it, but it's kind of to new.... so, going to sell it. A buddy offered me up a 1954 Plymouth Savoy. It's been a couple of years since I've seen it, but I recall it being complete. And except for the paint, stock. Yep, 6 banger & 3 spd, 6 vlt (+ ground)... I like it because it's different. We are going out this Sunday and checking it out. I guess it's going to depend upon how intact it is... He assures me, that a battery is all we are going to need. We will see. thinking of keeping the 6 banger... add intake & header(s) Basic black (now white with blue flames - spray bomb job).
Nothing wrong with a Plymouth Savory. I almost traded my 49 for one years ago. It's got good lines and isn't something that's easily confused with any other models. I believe Johnny Cash was quite a fan of em too.
it was pretty solid, but had more issues than I want to take on... at least right now. Found out he has 2 54 Ford Customlines too. They are a take 2 make 1 kind of deal. One is rusty and complete, the other is solid and not (complete)... going to look at them soon. (I am not a brand loyalist) so it doesn't really matter to me, but I like the lines of the 50's cars...
