    Anyone know the breakdown for each year truck production numbers? How rare are these trucks? Alot produced or not for each year?

    Thanks.

    Thanks. Was thinking of saving one from the crusher. In really rough shape. Frame rot and missing parts. Would at least make good rat rod or hot rod if not properly restored.

    They are unknown in Canada, as we have a Fargo instead.

    Some are quite rare....Might be worth salvaging even in rough condition...Someone out there in Plymouth Truck Land will want something off of it....

    There is no such thing as "junk" tin anymore.....it's just a matter of what it's worth to keep from seeing it turn into a Nissan, Toyota, or a new microwave.

    I got the Serial Number off the firewall on driver side. It is K8-2LR1 7434 This was on a little silver tab about 2 inches long. Anyone know exactly what year this truck is.

    One of my first rod builds was a 1939 Plymouth pickup. I didn't realize that it was that rare.

    I've had my '38 for fiveteen years , and it was twelve years before I saw another Plymouth pick up at a car show at the same time.

  17. That looks like a '53.

    BTW, Plymouth pickups were built through the 1941 model year. The PT125 was the last truck built in the US or Canada with the Plymouth name until Plymouth-badged Dodge vans and TrailDusters (Ramchargers) appeared in 1974.

    I sold my 1941 Plymouth off a couple of years back, it is in Dallas now.
