Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to present this Patina 1948
Dodge Custom Sedan. This old Dodge is a long-time survivor that's
been left mostly untouched for 70+ years. The age is revealed
through the faded burgundy pain with choice surface rust preserved
via a nice coat of clear. The chrome is in solid condition with a
decent shine and not much pitting. The chrome hub caps are accented
by wide white walled tires and the interior brings it all home with
a faded but serviceable, brown mouse fur interior. The dash is
finished in burgundy with working gauges and a cool art deco vibe
throughout. Power is provided by a 230 CI I6 engine, paired with a
3-speed manual transmission. This combination offers a retro
driving experience thanks to the column mounted shifter and no
power steering. Speaking of lack of convenience, all that's
provided for comfort is roll-up windows and a soft bench seat. The
brakes are manual, and when it comes to features, the word of the
day is ANOLOGUE! In conclusion, the 1948 Dodge Custom is a vintage
ride with a unique style. The clear coated patina paint captures
the "seasoned" wear of the big sedan with a whimsical nod to the
hobby of old car motoring. Come take this Tennessee Whisky runner
on its next adventure!
