Vehicle Description
STK 2878 1934 Plymouth 5 Window Coupe
This custom '34 Plymouth 5-window coupe is a great 'old-school' hot
rod that was totally restored in 2010. The steel body w/fiberglass
rear fenders/grill cowling was refinished in a Bright Yellow
basecoat/clearcoat finish with careful pinstriping. This little
coupe has a menacing look. In order to enhance the driving
experience, there is a rolled/pleated vinyl interior, comfortable
bench seat, tilt wheel and tinted windows. AutoMeter analog gauges
are laid out to perfection and a Pioneer AM/FM/CD sound system
plays your music. Horsepower comes from a serious Chrysler
'Fire-Power' Hemi that was rebuilt in 2010 and fitted with all the
right performance pieces. Based on the engine serial number
(NE55...), we believe that it is the rather rare 331ci/4V motor
originally installed in the '55 New Yorker and Imperial - a very
well regarded version of the Hemi. NE55 heads were dubbed '555 -
Triple Nickel' and are said to be the most desirable of all the
early Hemis. (We are not absolutely sure that these are the
original heads, but that is a fair assumption.) Fuel is now
furnished by an aluminum 3x2 intake fitted with (3) rebuilt
Rochester 2-barrels. Currently only the front two carbs engage with
progressive linkage, but the third carb is fully functional. A
performance cam manages flow and stainless tube headers feed a
stainless exhaust system. This Hemi sounds amazing, but remains
very streetable. It is mated to a GM 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic 350
automatic transmission w/Hurst shifter. The chassis integrates a
front straight axle with transverse leaf spring and coil-over
shocks. A solid differential is fitted with traction bars,
coil-over shocks and street gearing. Brakes are manual disc/drum
and American Racing wheels mount meaty radials. This handsome
Plymouth Hemi street rod must be driven to be appreciated. It will
soon make one new MOPAR owner very proud. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS
