1948 Plymouth coupe P15
$4,000
Listed 9 weeks ago in Waddell, AZ
Seller's description
1948 Plymouth coupe,solid car comes with a bunch of parts, titled in my name



EDIT: NOTE that there is a video of it running, but not starting and there's no coolant (upper hose missing). I'd expect start and run, hold coolant and clutch and trans operational for that price. I'd want brakes too, but those are not basic repair.

 

There's a video of this T in the ad, but I'm not capable of getting it on here.

 

Aint a '27.

Check out the intake closely , that’s a high $$ part . It many be near price of the “ unit “

that would be a coool car to restore.

 

Mark, that seems to have quite the history. Curating is not my speed, and I'm more of a rod than custom fella. I understand that you have no more room at the hacienda, but it seems to be more your kind of car or perhaps Galpin. There are a few other roadside museums that might be a good home, but the market has got to be pretty thin for those that would be willing and able to be a caretaker for such a machine at any price.

Selling my 1952 Super Riviera 2 door hardtop. It's very complete and highly original. Runs and drives, but the engine has a knock and trans leaks. Great documentation to go with the car (build sheet, owner's manual, registrations, 1st birthday card from the dealership, photos from '52, the list goes on and on). Originally bought by a woman working at Bob Irvin's Buick, in Lacey.

Hoping to find someone interested in restoring the car. Body is solid, but the floors are shot. Upper grill bar (mustache) is missing. All the spare parts I've collected over the years go with her. Clean title, asking $4,000.

Beautiful '54 Mercury Monterey - $22,900 (South Hill)






Are you ready to do some cruising? You'll get a lot of "thumbs up" in this ride. This car is very reliable. Just jump in and drive it anywhere. Lots of custom features including air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power lift trunk, tilt wheel, intermittent wipers, leather interior and a real pretty paint job.
This is not a trailer queen. 289 V8 with auto tranny. Brand new carpets and gear shift.
Health forces sale.

 

Sounds like a good deal until you get to the last line. If they won't show you a picture of the actual car, my rule is stay away.

 

"The car pictured is NOT the car for 12,100 but is to be used as reference for what the car can look like restored, that go for over 30,000.00"

Fuck this guy. Fuck him right in his ear. The only picture included in the whole ad is not even a picture of the car you're buying, not a single actual picture of the car. That is bullshit.

 

Yeah! If that isn't bait 'n switch, I don't know what is!
Chrome and stainless alone will bankrupt you on that car, if it all needs replacing.
"go for over 30K" Really?

Here's one for about the same price.
