BobT-47P15 Posted February 19, 2015 Report Posted February 19, 2015 Don't know how many are still left at this place down in the West Plains area of southern Missouri. A fellow who had worked in the heat and air business for many years found all these cars and dragged them to the farm. When he died, he left them to his daughter and husband. They have been picked over to some extent, but there were still quite a few to select from 4 or 5 years ago or so. At that time, son in law and I went down and purchased a 53 (i think) Plymouth with overdrive......removed the overdrive and wiring......then left them the car to resell. I think this link will take you to my Snapfish album with a batch of pics............. http://www2.snapfish.com/snapfish/fe/l=en_US/p/Organizer/s_c=0/s_mvm=INP/s_se=FDR/s_pt=REP,PRE#state=%7B%22pl%22%3A%7B%22uc%22%3A2%2C%22aid%22%3A%225509374007%22%2C%22pid%22%3A276647719007%2C%22pidx%22%3A0%2C%22vp%22%3A%22s%22%2C%22sb%22%3A%221%22%7D%2C%22ovm%22%3A%7B%22v%22%3A%22s%22%7D%7D Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Report Posted February 19, 2015 Found these pics.........the sellers were kind enough to pull the Plym up to the house with their wrecker, then raise it up so we could get the R10 out. Cleaning the trans up............ Quote
Uncle-Pekka Posted February 19, 2015 Report Posted February 19, 2015 Good for you! I trust you saved also the overdrive-script from the trunk lid? Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Report Posted February 19, 2015 Yes........saved the script as well. It was pretty pitted. I got to looking at a picture of the car from the rear and had to enlarge it to see the "overdrive" script.......then went back to the place (had been there once before but didn't notice) to actually make the buy. It was about a 3 hour drive from here. You never know what you will find when you get in the midst of a bunch of old cars. They only had one P15......a coupe that the owner was saving to (hopefully) restore. So I didn't have anything to pick parts from for my car. It was fairly complete........... Quote
