Had my car in the Goodguys Show over the weekend. Ended up buying this. 1952 Plymouth 4 door. Car is complete and bone stock. Well, except for the 2nd owner put disc brakes on the front. Still a 6 volt system. Not a typical cruiser, that's why I like it. And its a Plymouth. This is going to be pure sleeper, in fact for a while I won't do anything but drive it. But I already have visions. Crate Hemi, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I pick it up tomorrow. I'm pretty jazzed.

Awesome Dave. I could use some help in finding any web sites about it. It does need a hood emblem, and bumper bullets I think. I am actually pretty happy I bought it. |

jd: let me know what you need. A lot of the parts are available on e-bay, but I do have some suppliers and there are always a lot of parts for these at Carlisle in July. I will be glad to help you find what you need. Mine is a '51 but they are very similar. Check out this website. It has been a big help to me. I have had my '51 since 1965. http://www.oldplymouths.bigstep.com/generic0.html This message has been edited by Dave Mills on 11-13-2005 at 07:49 PM |

JD's car is the deluxe version, its a Cranbrook. Mine is the less expensive model, it's a Cambridge. The bottom of the line was the fastback model known as the Concord. |

It has good paint on it now, somebody filled in back up lights, so the body is my least concern for now. Anyway, thanks all |

My first mod, LoL This is what the original blue dots were made for.
Perfect fit, I had the lens off already to get one brake light working. Goes in soon,,

JD: The real thing is available for these cars. I pick spares up every time I find one. They are all glass and fragile. I have broken two over the years, but I have one spare now. Are you interested if I can find some more?

Dave, those look like the owner are putting them on? I looked over the lens, and it does a have solid center to drill out. The top reflector just presses out. But I think you are right, in the real lens would look better. The one you have looks to be installed better than the one on ebay. |
