BobT-47P15 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 I've said this before, but sometimes cars that turn up for sale on ebay can yield some useful information for restorers/refurbishers. This sedan from Illinois has what looks to me like a correct original interior. (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). Link to the ad which has other pics......http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Plymouth-Collector-Cars_W0QQitemZ110465657396QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item19b8442a34#v4-36 The engine is done nicely, too....... Of course, there are other examples best not followed...... Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Posted December 9, 2009 Then, for fun, there's this combo 50/51 Plym biz coupe...... The ad: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Plymouth-coupe_W0QQitemZ120502951041QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item1c0e891c81#v4-36 Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Posted December 9, 2009 This ragtop is about an hour from here....have never seen it in person. Looks nice in several ways, but I would have to look closely at some things......

Norm's Coupe Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Like the way they did the interior. But....they should have removed the padding from under the door handle. Notice how it makes the panel look dented. If they had removed the padding from under that, it would have seated into the panel without making that big indentation in the panel padding. Quote
james curl Posted December 9, 2009 Report Posted December 9, 2009 Thats the way mine looked 23 years ago but not now. The old cloth does not hold up well with use. Quote
