It is time for me to part ways with my Plymouth. For sale: 1948 Plymouth Special Deluxe Club Coupe. Strong 217 CI Flathead Straight 6 Engine. Freshly rebuilt overdrive transmission,3 on the tree. New Napa 6V battery. Well maintained and previously restored car. An excellent driver both in town and on highway. Car will happily cruise at 70+MPH. I have spent the last few years making into a reliable daily driver. Only selling due to moving. I would like $15,000, OBO. Car is located in central VA, and is available for inspection or test drives by appointment. Cash is of course King, but I am willing to take most reasonable secure payment methods. I am not looking for any trades, but would consider payment in precious metals. I have made a number of improvements to further enhance an already nice car such as: Sound deadening and heat insulation added to floors,doors and roof. New carpet and custom matching floor mats. Added interior visors. Swapped standard 3 speed transmission for a 1955 Plymouth 3 speed overdrive. Borgwarner R10G1. Trans was meticulously rebuilt with many new old stock parts and all USA made bearings. New clutch throughout bearing and pilot bushing installed. Flywheel resurfaced and balanced with the pressure plate. New ARP pressure plate bolts were used. White post restoration rebuilt master cylinder with bronze bore. Added oil filter. Dual exhaust with Brockman mellowtone steel pack mufflers and chrome pencil tips. Heat shield added under freshly rebuilt Carter WA-1 carburetor,with K&N filter. Mallory "Best" performance coil. Vintage dual points conversion in rebuilt distributor with Terril machine rebuilt vacuum advance unit. Custom made "00" sized battery cables and starter to solenoid cable. NOS starter solenoid. 6 month old Napa battery 6V. New side mirrors. New thermostat and water pump and belt. Rebuilt fuel pump. Vacuum canister and check valve for wipers. New "Aerostar" coil springs in front for 3" drop. 1.5" lowering blocks added to rear. Rear lights rewired with 14 gauge wire and extra bright bulbs installed. New shocks all around. Rubber replaced on the steering box mount.
Price dropped to $15,000. Additional discount of $500 for young family men. This is a nice family car, and I would love for it to continue to bring joy to the next generations.
