Classic Car Overview
HIGHLIGHTS:
Original survivor car with immense character!
201ci inline-six engine
3-speed column-shift manual transmission
Believed to be wearing its original black lacquer paint!
12-volt electrical system conversion for improved reliability
Reupholstered tan cloth interior
BODY OVERVIEW:
This 1940 Plymouth Road King wears its age proudly! The body is solid and well-preserved, especially for an unrestored, 85-year-old vehicle. It carries the dignified lines and robust steel construction that defined pre-war American cars. Doors open and close solidly, and panel fit is quite good for a car of this era that hasn’t been over-restored to perfection. Whether you’re seeking a preserved survivor, or looking for an excellent candidate for a restoration, this Plymouth is sure to fit the bill. Included with the sale are two “Mayberry RFD” door magnets, a magnetic roof light, and siren for the Andy Griffith experience, should you desire.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The original black lacquer paint is a testament to the car’s life of careful preservation. Cracks, chips, and scratches are present throughout, as is expected with lacquer of this vintage, but it still holds a soft shine in places and tells the story of the car's past. While some will say this car “needs” a paint job, it is important to remember that it’s only original once!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The tan cloth interior has been reupholstered and is in very good condition. The seats are clean and supportive, offering a nice contrast to the aged exterior. The dash and trim retain their original appearance, contributing to the car’s survivor status and period-correct charm. Talk about a time machine!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
The inline-six was rebuilt several years ago and runs incredibly smoothly—this Plymo
