46Ply Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) Here's my second Plymouth purchase this year! Now I've got one in progress and one to go. Hated to pass it up! She's got OverDrive, rebuilt engine, frame off, new paint, chrome, upholstery, suspension, springs, air shocks, and quite a few other items. Can't wait to take delivery!

46Ply Posted August 15, 2015 Author Report Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks guys, When I saw this car I couldn't stop thinking about it. I've already got the other 47 that we've been sorting out since March of this year. But I couldn't pass this one up. I actually found it on Craigslist in Minnesota. He has included many extra parts, including sun visor, fog lights, service manuals, photo album of progress pictures during the rebuild, etc. It has a 53 Plymouth OverDrive and a 4.2 rear axle. That's the part I like the most. I think. Can't wait to drive it!! A little history... the owner is now 83 and he bought this car in 1982, took the body off the frame, stripped the frame and rebuilt it from the ground up. Finished the car 13 years later, in 1996. And since that time he has put less than 2000 miles on it. The color, and interior is almost exactly as I pictured the first car I bought when and if I ever get it finished. He put a rubber floor mat in front and mohair carpet in the back seat and trunk. 1 Quote
