Now, here's a real '51 Plymouth convert


Recommended Posts

The '51 convertible is at a dealership about 15 miles south of here. It was on eBay a while ago listed by the owner and it went nowhere. Not exactly a perfect restoration, but a nice driver I'm sure. $27,900. is in the clouds as far as price is concerned.

Looks good in print. It's at 12 K now which would be a nice price for it I bet. I agree the buy it now is way out. But a really nice looking car just the same. Needs my motor in it to finish it off. :D:D

51 convert should have full wheel covers not the cheapie caps. Also the cranbrook logos are missing and I believe so is the clock. I'd still drive it!

I actually kinda like the small caps and trim rings on the convert....just enough red wheel to give it some color and a little pizzaz. The full covers, while nice, are a bit plain.

Its a nice touch. I will probably do the same with my 51 only with the bottle cap covers. May even do 2 sets one with each body color.

Bob that picture was when it was freshly restored. Springs were incorrectly built. Another set have since been installed from Espo. Also no curb feelers.

Dad has skirts for his car and they dont fit next to the stone guards.
