Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this highly original 1941
Plymouth Special Deluxe for your consideration. This beautiful
pre-war Plymouth is powered by the original 3299cc (201ci) Chrysler
Flathead inline-6 motor. The three speed manual transmission
features a column mounted shifter for the classic "3-on-the-tree"
driving experience.
This is an all steel car that is very clean throughout and is an
original 2-door car. The selling owner notes it has a newer
interior that has two tone door cards, gray bench seats, gray
carpeting, and brown dashboard. The gray exterior is in great
condition and is accented by striking brightwork that also is in
fantastic condition. A red pinstripe, Special Deluxe badge, and
trim ring around the wheels add a little pop of color which
contributes to the overall great appearance. This '41 Plymouth
rides on Firestone wide whitewall tires.
Overall this is a great example of a highly original Plymouth. Ford
and Chevrolet Automakers had a stronghold on the market with their
different models for most of the thirties but Walter P. Chrysler
had a great product and an even better marketing plan. The 1941
Plymouth Special Deluxe Convertible was designed to be a solid
contender in the convertible auto market and after years of pushing
prospective buyers to "look at all three", they had finally made it
to a sales level equal to their competitors. The 1932 was the first
step towards competing with the other domestic companies and by the
forties, the styling of the heart shaped grill and "speedline"
fenders with their bright embellishment became an undeniably
beautiful ride. Mr. Chrysler didn't make it into contention because
of these styling points but rather through quality and engineering
and claimed 10 advances along the way including the oil-bath
cleaner, safety-rim wheels to hold the tire together in case of a
blowout and an under-the-hood battery opposed to the more often
found spot underneath the driver seat. With automotive sales
stopping for war, customers relied on older models for a long
period of time and the Chrysler lineup became a permanent residence
in the automotive marketplace. Please call or email with any
