BobT-47P15 Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 For $810. Looked at the buyer's info, he is from Switzerland..... Quote
thedahmer Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 What is that about $100 per pound?????ohh well somebody is VERY Happy$$ Quote
47heaven Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 Yeah, I saw those, too. Would be nice to have, but waaaaaaaaaaayyy out of my financial reach. I never seen any with the emblem before. Was that how they came from the factory? Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Posted December 4, 2006 Maybe from somebody's fender skirt factory, but far as I know there never were any "factory" Plymouth skirts. All were aftermarket. I've never seen that trim piece before....and I've seen a lot of Plymouth stuff. Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Posted December 4, 2006 Well, those trims might have originally been on a skirt for a 36 or 37 model Plymouth. Here's a pic from a magazine article (article for sale on ebay) showing a piece on the skirts. Skirts are different shape than ones sold. However, I still think they were aftermarket. May have been special ordered thru a dealer. But most cars of the day do not have them. Quote
thedahmer Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 I thought that that emblem was on 49-51 pkymouths???? Quote
Skrambler Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 Hi Fellows. Those are actually factory skirts that were originally offered in 1942. The original part numbers were Plymouth 980522, Dodge 980574, De Soto 980523, and Chrysler 980525. I have the original dealership literature for these items, wish I could post a photo! Also, I am considering selling the pair I have. They are exactly like the ones on the bay. May list them this evening. I have them photographed on a spare 41 fender I have. They fit like a glove! I imagine that they would fit right on all the P-15's too! Regards Quote
Justin Slingsby Posted December 5, 2006 Report Posted December 5, 2006 I found those skirts today while researching carnut. http://www.carnut.com/cgi-bin/03/_image.pl?/show/03/pbo/nat1845.jpg Quote
thedahmer Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 I would bet if the guy that owns that car knew those are worth that much they would be on the Bay--if they were mine......... Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 E-bay is a trend sometimes..look for more to follow..especailly at the price this pair went for...like my cars like I like my women..skirts off Quote
