Mark Haymond Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 That's a good looking 1950 Plymouth. Congratulations on getting it restored and running again. Was Gaynor Grey your car's original color? Quote
Don Coatney Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 Nice film clip, thanks for sharing. Has spring arrived in Long Island? Good to see green stuff. The engine picture looks like the engine forum member blueskies built several years ago. Quote

The video was done in September after I first got the car registered. The friend that did the video added the engine pictures he found on line..... Edited March 28, 2015 by LODI3QTR Quote

Was Gaynor Grey your car's original color? I was tolled except for the exterior color the car is all original it has 32,000 miles on the Odometer. The interior is Gaynor Grey so I think it was the original color and will be one day. Thanks..... Edited March 28, 2015 by LODI3QTR Quote
LODI3QTR Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 Very nice. Thanks for the ride. Your welcome..... Quote
Robin (UK) Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 I always enjoy these 'rides' in other people's classics. Thanks for sharing. Quote
1940plymouth Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) You driving it up to Rhinebeck in May?. It would be nice to meet you and see the wagon Edited March 29, 2015 by 1940plymouth Quote
LODI3QTR Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) You driving it up to Rhinebeck in May?. It would be nice to meet you and see the wagon Thanks for the Info, I knew nothing about it. I'll try to make it, the car runs good but I've only driven it on 25 mile trips each way at a time so far. I could tow it up there on my trailer, I know it'll make it that way.....LOL Edited March 29, 2015 by LODI3QTR Quote
doctor dirt Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Beautiful ride in great condition! I grew up in a 49' Ply wagon just like yours. My mom had the car for about 5 years and it was handed down to me at 16 yrs. Not exactly the ride I wanted but I never said a thing hahaha used it for a year and sold it on my dads car lot. Great torque and very comfortable ride. Mine was green with the same interiors as yours, yours is much nicer however. Good luck great ride. Doc. Quote
LODI3QTR Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 Love The Story Doc. Was your '49 either of these greens? Thanks a lot.... Quote
kented Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 Great video and awesome car! I need to get my 49' on the road. Quote

BobT-47P15 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 The weather must have been warm for the drive movie........since the driver is barefoot........... That engine resembles the one put together by Pete -- Blueskies -- for his brown 50 Plymouth. Quote

frankieflathead Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) That's a sweet old wagon. Thanx for bringing us along on the maiden voyage. I had a '50 Plymouth beater sedan back in the 1970's that wasn't anywhere NEAR as nice, but I put it on the road street legal for $300 all in, including a free Dodge 230 engine I swapped into it.
