Vehicle Description
The Plymouth Deluxe is a full-sized automobile which was produced
by American manufacturer Plymouth from 1946 to 1950. It offered in
two trim levels, the Deluxe and the top-of-the-line Special Deluxe.
As the war in Europe wound down, the U.S. government slowly began
allowing the automobile industry to return to the car-making
business. It had been four years since any new cars had been built,
and those cars still on the road were beginning to show their age.
"The more you know about the new Plymouth... the more convinced you
are that not all the beauty is on the surface. You can't see them
all, but you can feel them in action." Plymouth's new models for
1946 were once again offered in two series, the P15S Deluxe, and
P15C Special Deluxe. Deluxe body styles included a four-door sedan,
two-door sedan, club coupe, and business coupe. Waiting lists were
common at dealerships. Those wanting a new car placed their name,
and often a cash deposit, with the dealer. Customers hoped that as
new cars became available, they would move up the list until it was
their turn to take delivery. Car buyers with their name on every
dealer's list in town were not uncommon; reports of money paid
under the table were common, as were scalpers who would put their
new car on the market at a price considerably higher than they had
paid for it.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this newly repainted and
upgraded 1948 Plymouth Super Deluxe Club Coupe. Coming in a very
nicely done and showing medium Airwing Gary exterior with
beautifully showing chrome bumpers and accents. The interior has
been redone and would be described as like with Black vinyl that
shows no rips, tears, or holes. The rest of the interior shows just
as well with originality held the uppermost. The lights and heater
both work great and function very nicely, the rest of the
electronics are there but need to be refurbished, including the
radio, turn signals. The engine in the Coupe is a 3.6L Inline
Flathead 6 that fires right up and runs as smooth as you would
want, the brakes have been updated to have disc up front and what
appears the original on the rears and stops on a dime. This is
certainly different breed of post-war car and would be a great
addition for anybody or someone who is looking for the classic
Flathead!
