Ask anyone who knows about old cars, nd they'll tell you that '40s Mopars are some of the best-driving cars of the period. Add a Hemi, bunch of modern conveniences, nd an icy blue paint job and these great cars become even better. In 1940, lymouth's advantage was modern styling, nd few body styles are more attractive than this Model P10 coupe. The pointed nose with smoothly integrated headlights was new that year, nd the squared-off trunk makes it instantly recognizable from behind as a Chrysler product. The builders were smart enough to leave all the great original details intact, ncluding the front grille, he vents on the hood, nd all the stainless trim, o it looks like a far more upscale car than its original sticker price might suggest. Workmanship is quite good, ith doors that fit precisely, reat gaps on the pointed hood, nd paint that has a subtle shine. Go to any Goodguys show and you'll see quite a few Mopars, ut this one's low-profile look will get it noticed just because of how well-executed it is. Back in the '40s, ravelling salesmen cruised the back roads of the country in their 2-passenger business coupes like this one, hich traded the back seat for massive storage in the trunk. It gives this Plymouth an intimate interior for two, omplete with a pair of late-model buckets and a custom center console. Custom carpets give it a highly finished look, nd the dash is full of very 1940s-looking gauges from Classic Instruments. With brushed stainless faces, hey look right at home in the Plymouth. Vintage Air supplied the A/C system and controls, hile Sony provided the AM/FM/CD head unit that powers Pioneer speakers. Open the trunk and you'll find out what the salesmen found so appealing about these Plymouth coupes-a fully upholstered space big enough for a months' worth of cross-country road trip. Perhaps you're expecting the ubiquitous Chevy 350 under the hood, ut you'll be very pleasantly surprised to find that this one is 100% Mopar, ith a rumbling 392 cubic inch Hemi under the hood instead. It's a tight fit in there, ut those wide valve covers with centrally-mounted spark plugs makes a big statement when you pop the hood. Add a pair of carburetors up top, big aluminum radiator, nd plenty of Hemi Orange paint, nd it's a uniquely Plymouth way of building a rod. Linked to a 3-speed automatic, t's also docile and easy to drive, nd loafs along at supra-legal speeds without strain. The chassis has been modified to take advantage of 70 years of technological advances, ncluding disc brakes and power steering, nd the exhaust system dumps out through custom rectangular tips just ahead of the rear wheels. It offers just the right amount of rake for true hot rod attitude, nd rolls on polished Torque Thrusts and staggered 185/60/15 front and 225/60/15 rear Uniroyal radials. An unusual and nicely finished rod that keeps it 100% Mopar. Call today!
