Vehicle Description
This 1947 Plymouth is a full custom-built street rod. That's why
you have the chopped sleek body, upgraded V8 power, and full custom
interior. And because a car like this loves to hug the ground, you
can dial-in the best stance wherever you part thanks to the
adjustable air ride suspension.
The 1947 Plymouth had a terrific sense of style, and this custom
Club Coupe shows us it's the model that should have really been
sought-after for the Led Sled treatment back in the day. The
distinction starts with the paint. It's a modern PPG urethane
finish, but it's done in a classic single-stage style. The result
is a vividness that the first hot rodders wanted in a look that
could have almost come from their era. And there's a nice sleekness
here that's amplified further by the smoothed body featuring
frenched headlights, sport mirrors, shaved door handles, deleted
trim, fender skirts, a frenched license plate, and '59 Caddy
taillights in frenched housings. And of course, the most
wind-cheating part of this look comes from all the inches they
expertly chopped out of the roofline. There are plenty more of the
classic cruiser details, like the dual spotlights, vintage wheel
covers, whitewall tires, and nice chrome on the bumpers and grille.
Overall, the presentation has the right look that is impressive
from every angle on a car that's not afraid to be driven. And every
place that you arrive, the adjustable air ride suspension means you
can ensure that this has the right stance when people take out
their phones to get pics.
Pop the remote door openers to get a great view of the custom
interior. The gray tweed has a tasteful and uniform look on the
seat, door panels, headliner, and carpeting. There are thoughtful
details here, like how the side vent windows were deleted and the
steering wheel is borrowed from a later Chrysler to remind you that
this custom is a classic Mopar. And this one loves to offer modern
conveniences. That's why you have Dynamat insulation, power
windows, and an AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth. The air ride controls
are right on the dash for easy use. Plus, a Gennie floor shifter,
tilt steering column, and a crisp AutoMerter gauge package make it
easy to get comfortable for cruising near or far.
The dark engine bay really lets you take notice of the bright
details of the upgraded small block V8. The consignor states this
350 cubic inch has been upgraded to a 383 stroker V8. It also has a
mild cam, double roller timing chain, Mickey Thompson finned valve
covers, and topped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. And
it's supported by the right pieces, like a newer water pump and a
Walker four-core radiator w/electric fan. This 1940s body is set on
an El Camino frame for a better ride. Plus, you have power
steering, power brakes, front discs, and an upgraded 700R4
four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.
Complete with restoration photos, this is the street machine built
with the right features and attitude to hit the road all weekend
long. It's a cool custom that's made even cooler by being a
rarely-seen Plymouth. So if you want to stand out in all the best
ways, don't miss this coupe. Call today!!!
