1949 Special Deluxe

[dmulhall]

Hey Guys,

I'm a new commer to the car scene...I already have a b2b pickup...

I'm looking at a '49 special deluxe..its a 2 door for the wife...

did the special deluxe come as a 2 door in '49?

I heard that it didnt...it was only a deluxe as a 2 door?

It looks in pretty good shape, I just have to chase

the mice out of it...we'll see what happens...

Thanks very much

Are we talking Plymouth, or Dodge?

I'm assuming you have seen the car. If you look at my profile, you will se a '48 2 door sedan special deluxe Dodge D25. The Plymouth of the same year looks the same. There were also club coupe and business coupe models. These likely extended to the beginning of '49.

I have attached pictures of what I believe are '49 Plymouth 2 doors. One is a business coupe, the other a sedan. Canadian Dodges would have shared the same body as these - however you may have an American Dodge, in Canada.

49 should also have a club coupe. Would look similar to this 50 body wise etc.

There was a two door, two seat coupe - both Deluxe and Special Deluxe - in the P18 model for 1949. U.S. made cars.

Here are the various models for '49.

From the "Catalog of Canadian Car I.D. Numbers", for the 1949 Plymouth -

DeLuxe P17 :

2-door coupe - $1,680

2-door sedan - $1,780

2-door wagon - $2,181

DeLuxe P18-1 :

2-door club coupe - $1,829

4-door sedan - $1,882

Special DeLuxe P18-2 :

2-door club coupe - $1,939

4-door sedan - $1,979

So, yes there was a club coupe in the Special DeLuxe series for 1949. Convertibles and wooy wagons were imported from the U.S. - with government approval due to currency regulations.

By the way, "Catalog of Canadian Car I.D. Numbers" can be obtained from Amazon.com and Amos Press. Cannot find anyone in Canada who sells it, believe it or not. The book covers 1930 through 1980, is 856 pages in length and written by yours truly.
