1948 Plymouth Special Deluxe Sedan. Well-documented ownership history and remarkably low mileage of approximately 51,142 miles, which is verified by original paperwork. 218 cubic inch inline six-cylinder engine paired with a three-speed manual transmission operated via a column-mounted shifter. The exterior paint, likely original, is a distinctive battleship gray with chrome and brightwork in good condition, showing only minor imperfections. The car has been meticulously maintained, especially by a previous owner who owned transmission shops and refurbished the drivetrain, powertrain, suspension, seals, weatherstripping, and tires about 5,000 miles prior. The vehicle still runs on its original 6-volt electrical system and includes a repair and maintenance manual. The brakes will require attention in the future, and while the wide whitewall bias-ply tires are older, they remain functional. The interior is well-preserved with original looking door panels, rubber flooring, and seating surfaces in good shape. Noteworthy features include fog/driving lights, turn signal indicators on the steering column, dual heaters, a gas cap release mechanism operated by a dash switch, and a push-button engine start. The dashboard, steering wheel, and headliner retain their chrome accents and original styling cues. On the road, the car's smooth engine performance and drivability stand out. Proper handling, functional controls, and an overall joy driving.
