It's hard to find a nicely presented classic that looks period-correct without breaking the bank...or is it? This 1950 Plymouth DeLuxe two-door sedan has all the right appearance and feature to feel like time machine... and it's turnkey ready at a great price.The minty green paint has a great luster that shines like a classic should without being too boisterous, and that sets the mood for the whole car. It represents the optimistic 1950s with bold elements, and it mixes in hard-working practicality. The big bold front end is intact right down to the Mayflower hood ornament. Plus, the chrome bumpers are so big they look like they could push a train. This classic Plymouth is not trying to be a hot rod, and so there is a refreshingly honest impression that you see in everything from factory hubcaps, to the whitewall tires, to the big round roofline. Even all that flowing stainless trim on this DeLuxe model has not been altered.The tasteful interior is pure post-war design, but it's been updated so you don't lose the comfort. The gray fabric on the seats, side panels, and headliner feel simple, fresh, and correct. The three-spoke steering wheel has a great original feel, but beyond that all the surrounding wood trim has been refreshed for a stellar presentation. All your gauges work as well as the AM radio and even the heater. So the nice presentation even gets the details right, too.The engine bay looks authentic right down to the oil bath air cleaner that still has the correct Chrysler sticker. It has the kind of period-correct appearance that people love to see, so it will be up to you to share its secret. While Plymouth was famous for their inline-six cylinder motor, this one has the larger 230 cubic-inch unit that didn't come until the mid-1950s. This means a 14% boost in power, and you're in complete control of it thanks to the column mounted three-speed transmission. We are still not suggesting that this classic is a hot rod, but that extra hit of power combined with Plymouth's legendary smooth ride makes for one worthy weekend machine. All you need to do is look at the undercarriage photos to understand the level of care that has gone into this one over the years. It's the kind of authentic and sturdy package that lets you know this deal won't be with us long. Call today!!!
