Plymouth Sedan 318 cubic inch V8 1937

Allmän beskrivning : Solid older build. 318 cubic inch V8, automatic, power brakes, power steering, and more. Nice bodywork with awesome pinstripe details. Nicely finished cloth interior with room for 4. Recently serviced, runs great. A very affordable rod that can be enjoyed or upgraded along the way.

The build on this 1937 Plymouth 2-door sedan probably dates to the 1990s, but it was well done and is holding up quite nicely. We believe the 14,000 or so miles showing on the odometer are since it was finished, so it has been driven enough to sort out the mechanicals but not so much that anything is tired or worn out. It comes from the estate of a Mopar enthusiast with a rather large collection of Chrysler products, and this was one of his favorites to drive. The handsome burgundy metallic paint is still contemporary, so it neatly avoids looking dated like those rods with weird graphics or pastel colors, and the unaltered Plymouth bodywork remains handsome after all these years. It must have been quality work, because the paint is holding up beautifully with no checking or other signs of failure and it doesn’t show many signs of use—a few very minor nicks here and there but nothing serious. The doors close solidly, the glass and weather seals were obviously replaced during the build, and details like the subtle turn signals under the headlights suggest someone invested time and effort to build this tidy Plymouth. A third brake light has been neatly integrated into the rear deck, and most of the chrome was restored so it has a lot of bright jewelry that looks great, including that schooner hood ornament. Nice!

The interior uses a funky two-tone striped fabric that we find appealing. Again, the workmanship was excellent at the time and by using the original seats, comfort is excellent. Matching door panels tie everything together and black carpets prevent it from becoming red overload. There’s a fat Grant GT steering wheel on a late-model steering column, custom gauges from Classic Instruments in the original dash, and a fabricated center console with controls for the entertainment system, CB radio, and HVAC controls. The radio and CD player are Chrysler items, continuing the all-Mopar theme, and yes, the CB is a bit of a throwback and we haven’t tested it. Power windows are also part of the package. In back, there’s a spacious back seat that will work for full-sized adults and a matching headliner with color-matched garnish moldings suggests that this was not an inexpensive build. Even the trunk is nicely upholstered and features a space-saver spare, just in case.

We believe that’s a 318 cubic inch Chrysler V8 under the pointed hood, and it provides easy cruising and modern performance that make this Plymouth very easy to live with. A few Mopar Performance dress-up items make it look racy, but this rod is all about function. Of course you get features like an alternator, power steering, and power brakes, so anyone can handle this rod, and the TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic is a great traveling partner. The dual exhaust system has Flowmaster mufflers for a nice rumble that isn’t aggressive, so cruising is comfortable at any speed. Both ends of the suspension use solid axles and leaf springs, so it rides like a 1937 Plymouth, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Modern tube shocks have been adapted to help things out and it feels sturdy and agile out on the road. The original frame is plenty robust for the car’s performance and the rear axle is a Dana 35c with what we believe are 2.73 gears inside, so it’s great at highway speeds. Brakes are drums all around, but they’re perfectly adequate for the car’s performance and stop true and there’s a new stainless gas tank hanging out back. Staggered 14- and 15-inch aluminum wheels date the car a little bit, but that’s an easy upgrade, and it sits on 205/75/14 and 225/75/15 Goodyear radials of indeterminate age.

Extras include a protective vinyl bra for the front of the car and a jack assembly.

Not all rods have to be the same, and we like that this Plymouth marches to a slightly different drummer. No generic Chevy powerplant, a funky yet functional interior, and enough civility that it remains enjoyable to drive anywhere, any time. The hardware is proven and it shows plenty of quality workmanship, so this wasn’t just some hack building it in his driveway. And then there’s the price—considering how much car you get, that’s pretty hard to beat. Call today!

om Plymouth
Plymouth -varumärket hade en betydande inverkan på bilindustrin från början till dess eventuella avbrott. Här är en översikt över Plymouth som täcker dess historia, anmärkningsvärda modeller och specifikationer:

Tidiga år och stiftelse:
Origins (1928): Plymouth introducerades av Chrysler Corporation som ett prisvärt varumärke på mellannivå som riktar sig till budgetmedvetna konsumenter.
Framgångsfaktorer: Det fick popularitet på grund av dess pålitliga konstruktions-, prisvärd och smarta marknadsföringskampanjer.
Anmärkningsvärda modeller:

Ikonisk muskelbil: känd för sin prestanda, överkomliga och minimalistiska design.
Specifikationer: Erbjuds olika V8 -motoralternativ med kraft från 335 till 390+ hästkrafter.
Plymouth Barracuda (1964-1974):
Muskelbilskonkurrent: Placerad som en sportig konkurrent inom muskelbilsegmentet.
Specifikationer: Motoralternativ inkluderade V8 med kraftuttag som varierar mellan 145 till 425+ hästkrafter.
Plymouth Fury (1955-1978):

Nedgång och bortgång:
Senare år: Plymouth mötte utmaningar på grund av varumärkesutspädning inom Chrysler Corporation och ökade konkurrensen från andra märken.
Avbrott: Varumärket kämpade på 1990 -talet mitt i företags omstrukturering och minskande försäljning. Plymouth upphörde produktionen 2001 som en del av Daimlerchryslers effektiviseringsinsatser.
Arv och påverkan:
Plymouths arv ligger i sina bidrag till det amerikanska billandskapet och erbjuder pålitliga, prisvärda och eleganta fordon. Medan det mötte utmaningar under de senare åren och slutligen upphörde produktionen, förblir flera av dess ikoniska modeller, särskilt de i muskelbilen, firade bland samlare och entusiaster och lämnade ett bestående märke på bilhistoria.
