Vehicle Description
We love seeing cars from the 1930s get a new life as cool updated
hot rods, but most of the time they are a Ford or Chevy. That's
what makes this 1936 Plymouth coupe so appealing. It has sleek
paint, an A/C interior, overdrive transmission, and four-wheel disc
brake upgrades to fit in perfectly with this crowd. But it stays
truly unique by remaining Mopar faithful right down to the classic
Hemi V8 under the hood.
The business coupe is the best place to start when you want a
custom street machine. They already have a performance/outlaw
history because moonshines loved the extra-large trunks. And not
only was this body style great for extra cargo, but it also
happened to have one of the best profiles around as the long rear
end has plenty of space to develop the smooth curves. It's nicely
showcased on a deep blue paint with so much gloss it almost looks
wet. It really has the kind of freshness that reminds you there are
only about 4,500 miles on the whole build. This sleek finish is
joined by custom touches like the Hemi badging and tasteful red and
white pinstripes for a patriotic look. There's also just the right
amount of chrome with classic pieces like the bumpers, waterfall
grille, and sailing ship hood ornament meet a polished set of Foose
17-inch alloys with a larger rear tire set for a more aggressive
stance.

A deep blue returns on the carpeting and sides to give the door
panels a custom Plymouth three sail style. Even the trunk is fully
finished in this theme. But while this has style, you'll really
appreciate the full substance that was added to the substance of
this custom setup. It starts with the tasteful maroon leather that
covers the pair of well-bolstered high-back bucket seats. There's
more added comfort with air conditioning, power windows, cup
holders, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input. They also made sure
this was a driver's machine with a Lokar floor shifter, a tilt
steering column, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a dash
dominated by crisp Classic Instruments gauges.
You're going to love lifting the hood at car shows because this
classic Plymouth has classic Mopar power. It's a first-gen
Firepower Hemi V8, and in fact, the code comes back to a rare
DeSoto 330 cubic-inch unit. You'll love talking about this special
motor and all that polish means it's ready to be showcased today.
But a coupe like this was built for driving. That's why the V8
inhales deeply with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales
with added power as shorty headers feed the dual exhaust. A
thoughtful setup also means good details like a battery mounted in
the trunk and an aluminum radiator with electric fan. As you look
underneath, the clean presentation reminds you of how fresh the
build is. You'll also spot the upgraded suspension with tubular
front A-arms, a four-link rear, and adjustable all around. This one
was built to be enjoyed at all times, and that's why you have nice
features like four-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, and a
four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly
overdrive.
This car has been part of a family's long-term collection. It was
built out of a labor of love, and you can really see that in the
details. There are even restoration photos so you can take others
on this car's restoration/transformation journey. So this awesome
Plymouth makes for a high-quality and distinct custom that you just
know belongs in your garage. Call now!
