Plymouth is one of those revered brands of yesteryear. Named after a brand of binder twine that was from, surprise, surprise, Plymouth, the brand's logo featured the outline of the Mayflower, the English ship that landed in the USA carrying the first Pilgrims. This particular 1948 Plymouth P15 Coupe hails from the brand's post-war efforts, and is a restomod, of sorts. With a comprehensive restoration and refinements added, it's a great classic car to drive while enjoying some modern features. Purists may look away, but the pragmatic will have their curiosity piqued. Let's discover what this car brings to the table.
Exterior and Interior
This 1948 Plymouth P15 Coupe is a Special Deluxe Club Coupe model and has been painted in Navy Blue. That's a fitting color since Forties cars were typically black or dark shades rather than the pastel hues that came with the Fifties and beyond. The car rolls on a nice set of black steel wheels with chrome hubcaps that bear the Plymouth script on them. From outside, there's nothing to say that this car is a restomod. Inside is where we start to see some hints of this 1948 Plymouth P15 Coupe's restomod nature. The original gauge cluster has been augmented by an aftermarket voltmeter, and there's aftermarket air conditioning to keep the cabin cool. The current owner tells us that the interior upholstery has been redone, and it certainly shows with the plush seats appearing at their best. The glovebox hides a modern Kenwood AM/FM head unit with a remote control. A glance downwards will reveal a center console has been added, containing cupholders and storage for your CDs. Finally, we've got power windows, so there's no need to manually crank the windows up and down.
Engine
Now for some tasty bits. First off, this 1948 Plymouth P15 Coupe comes with a potent 5.2L V8 under the hood, replete with Edelbrock heads and a Carter AFB-series 4-barrel carb. Then, we've got a tuned dual exhaust system for a V8 rumble that totally sets this car apart. Since when did a Forties Plymouth rumble and roar like this one does? The car also boasts a high-capacity radiator and drives the rear wheels through an automatic gearbox and a Plymouth Duster rear end. Meanwhile, the front end is from a Ford Mustang II.
