Contrary to popular belief, the Plymouth brand was not named after Plymouth rock. Rather, the name was coined by then-Chrysler executive Joe Frazer after Plymouth binder twine, which was seen to be sturdy, reliable, and low-priced. Plymouth was created to be Chrysler's budget car brand. Fast forward to the current era, and vintage Plymouths in pristine order fetch far more than they ever did brand-new. Of course, they also make great restomod platforms, such as this 1937 Plymouth Deluxe that bears just 6,500 miles after a comprehensive restoration. It's not an all-out restomod, but it retains the classic Thirties design, with some tasteful upgrades here and there.
Clothed in a matte black paint job, this 1937 Plymouth Deluxe showcases the typical Thirties profile that's been popularized by the gangster films of yesteryear. Looking closer, you'd notice the rear-hinged coach doors for back seat access and the podded headlamps. The car rolls on a set of black 15-inch rims shod with modern Cooper tires, reportedly new as per the current owner. The interior is similarly tasteful, retaining much of the period cues of this 1937 Plymouth Deluxe, melded with modern conveniences where required. The current owner reports that the seats have been upholstered and covered with Indian blanket covers. The vintage dash remains, with new retro-styled gauges installed ahead of the driver. Ahead of the passenger and beneath the glovebox lies a modern Kenwood head unit with radio, CD, AUX, and USB connectivity options. Gaze upwards, and you can see that the roof has been lined with Cool It Thermo Tec to help keep the interior cool when the sun is out.
This 1937 Plymouth Deluxe appears to have a V8 engine displacing 257ci, as we are told. Drive goes to the rear wheels through an automatic transmission. The current owner reports that the car has been upgraded with power steering and power brakes to make it easier to drive. Riding on leaf springs and shock absorbers, it's best to enjoy the cruise and turn heads wherever you go.

Automakers don’t do silly things anymore. Like, say, create a muscle car and name it after a beloved cartoon character. Or spend a significant sum of money to buy the naming rights from the intellectual property holder of said character. Or spend even more money after that to develop a horn that sounds just like that character’s jaunty cry. That’s what Plymouth did in the Sixties, with the Road Runner. They paid Warner Brothers US$50,000 to license their Road Runner character’s name and likeness. Then, they spent a further $10,000 to develop a horn that said “Beep Beep” just like the character did on screen. Was it a success? You bet! In fact, if not for the Malaise Era’s impending arrival and renewed focus on fuel economy and emissions, the Road Runner might have run a little bit longer than 1980. Today, we have a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner for sale from Jacksonville, Florida. With a nice 383ci V8, an automatic gearbox and an aftermarket head unit from Pioneer, this 42,228-mile machine is a fine catch for a savvy collector of American classics – or someone who wants to start a collection.
One of those historically significant automotive names, Plymouth was not only named after the famous rock, but also a brand of binder’s twine. Sadly this marque is no more, but they gave us some epic models such as the Roadrunner, Fury, Barracuda and more. Today, we have something a bit older, something from their 1940s collection. This 1950 Plymouth P20 Special Deluxe Convertible Restomod is part of the Plymouth De Luxe line that ran between 1933 and 1942, and again from 1946 to 1950. These full-sized cars came in various body styles, and this particular 40,928-mile machine is a lovely drop-top. It’s got a beige electrically operated convertible top, a newer 350ci V8, an automatic gearbox and more things to make every drive even sweeter.
Few cars captured the spirit of 1990s automotive experimentation quite like the Plymouth Prowler. With its retro-inspired hot rod styling and modern engineering, it became one of the most unique production vehicles of its era. This 1999 example, offered from Nevada, Missouri, is finished in Prowler Red with an Agate leather interior and shows just 7,000 miles from new. With its low mileage and factory originality, it represents a rare opportunity to own a near-pristine first-year Prowler.
If there ever was a definitive station wagon, the Chevy Nomad has got to be it! In fact, Chevy used the Nomad nameplate mostly on station wagons. Firstly, these wagons were based on the Tri-Five from 1955 to 1957, Then, they shifted to a Bel Air base from 1958 to 1961 and subsequently, a Chevelle base between 1968 and 1972. So, this 1958 Chevrolet Nomad Station Wagon is based on a Bel Air platform and it’s a sort of restomod. With features such as shaved rear doors, a 348ci V8 and a 700R4 automatic transmission, it’s ready for action. If you’re interested, this sub-58,000 mile machine is available in Groveton, New Hampshire.
1973 was the last year of first generation Mustang production, before the smaller and more cut-down Mustang II hit the scene. So, choosing a car like this 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is representative of the end of an era, so to speak. Plus, since this is a potent Mach 1 variant, it’s got quite a bit of go-factor under the hood as well. This particular car hails from Lakeland, Florida, with 65,000 showing on its odometer. It’s also got a 351 Cleveland, throttle-body injection, carbon-fiber interior trim and accents, and much more goodies to enjoy. DM or call us right now if you’d like to take over custody of this rather special pony.
Japan in the 90s was a proper time to be a petrolhead; each manufacturer was pumping out some serious machinery.

A look at the marketplace for Mazda RX-7s reveals multiple options with varying price tags; the higher end is reserved for the rare birds that often get tucked away in collectors' most prized collections. Present today is this JDM 1992 Mazda RX-7 Type RZ ɛ̃fini. With one of just 352 Type RZ models, this is a true jewel of the Rx-7 world. The fun doesn't stop there; the current owner reports just under 23,000 documented original miles on its clock, with a grocery list of tasteful upgrades and a parts list to make it a real performance weapon at your local race track.
