RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 Hello .. I am ricardo, I am from Porto - Portugal and I am restoring a dodge D25 special deluxe, 4 door ( year 1946)( I'm new in forum, so sorry for something i do wrong ) At the moment, i'm in the interior of the vehicle and I have doubts about front seat tracks( when I bought the vehicle the interior was burned and don't have the front seat tracks ). Please, someone can help me with front seat tracks ( photos ) for my car? If possible send me the seats ( complete and incomplete seats - Photos ). Best Regards for everybody Ricardo Silva Quote
casper50 Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 Welcome to the forum Silva. First a 1946 Dodge would be a D-24. Also need to know if it's a two door or a 4 door. Different front seats. Quote
RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Posted December 25, 2016 Hello Casper50 I hope you are fine I see this link http://car-from-uk.com/sale.php?id=156103 and it's the same car. My car it's a 4 door. Regards Ricardo Silva Quote
dpollo Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 A Special Deluxe Dodge is indeed a D25 built from 46 to early 49 . Most were built in Canada but they were also built in Detroit for export.Most parts are the same as for a P15 Plymouth but it is important to note which engine the car uses. as for Silva's request seat tracks for Plymouth and Dodge from 42 through 48 should be the same but the seat for the bigger D24 Dodge is wider. 1 Quote
RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Posted December 25, 2016 Thanks dpollo Yes. In my car some parts are the same from plymouth p15. The interior it's the same i think .. But i can't find some photos with seat tracks Send some photos with my dodge Regards Ricardo Silva Quote
knuckleharley Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 The good news is you either bought a very nice one to start on,or that you do very nice work. Quote
RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Posted December 25, 2016 All paint is the first hand of paint (not to rust again - car for life understand ) .. All the parts were dismantled and repaired Quote
dpollo Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 If you can find out if the 49 to 52 uses the same seat tracks...... I suspect that they do not..... I will be able to help you. The body of your car is, as mentioned above, a VERY Good one compared to many that I have repaired. dp Quote
RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Posted December 25, 2016 dpollo thank you again My front seat is single ( does not have the split in the middle ) See this videos if it helps --> The body it's the same My front seat don't split in the midle. It's unique Regards Ricardo Silva Quote
rb1949 Posted December 25, 2016 Report Posted December 25, 2016 Nice work there. Yes, 4 door did not have a split seat. Hope you can find them. The D25 was a Plymouth P15 with a Dodge front end and nameplate. Desoto and Dodge D25 cars built in the U.S. used a Plymouth engine, but Canadian units used the Canadian Plymouth engine, which was the same size as the U.S. Plymouth engine, but of a different design. Dodge D25 Deluxe, Special Deluxe 1946 1947 1948 TOTAL 4,455 6.063 7,512 18,030 Quote
RicardoSilva Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Posted December 25, 2016 Thank you for information rb1949 " The D25 was a Plymouth P15 with a Dodge front end and nameplate. " So the Dodge D25 have the same interior as Plymouth p15 correct? So the Front Seat Tracks is the same in this 2 models, yes? Best Regards Ricardo Silva Quote
