Description:

HISTORY: The 1949-52 Plymouths remain an enigma to Plymouth fans. While they were and are popular, they are considered by many to be rather unexciting and certainly less than they could have been. It was the dictum of Chrysler's president at the time, K.T. Keller, that his company's cars be practical transportation pieces in which one could sit bolt-upright wearing a hat. Styling based on such a philosophy ran counter to the sleek, straight lines seen on the competition. Although many buyers did appreciate the common sense practicality of these cars and bought them for that, (and a well-deserved reputation for reliability), there were countless other people who abandoned or avoided Plymouth showrooms in favor of those offering more spectacular wares. One can only speculate on how different automotive history might have been had Chrysler offered cars as up-to-date in styling in 1949 as they did in 1955 and 1957, yet with the quality and reliability of the 1949-52 Plymouths. But above all, these cars do have charm. People will ooh and aah over the classics and the sporty roadsters and convertibles, I thought it was just an ordinary car back then, but this is nice! It was the car of the common person. A true people's car. A car of memories. And that's what really makes these cars great. DESCRIPTION: THIS CAR IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!
