Minor engine changes brought horsepower up to 84, the optional aluminum high-compression head raising that figure to 87. A new transmission, with a blocker-type synchronizer, was standard on all models. Identified by its slide mounted cover.This particular Plymouth Coupe Deluxe is believed to have 78,398 miles and appears to be original. It could be yours for $29,998.
