1952 Plymouth Concord

Description

It's hard to find a nicely presented classic that looks period-correct without breaking the bank...or is it? This 1952 Plymouth Concord two-door sedan has all the right appearance and features to feel like time machine... and it's turnkey ready at a great price.

Classic car fans should be intrigued by this Concord. After all, Plymouth only offered the model for two years. And more than just a rare name, this one is an interesting time capsule. It represents the optimistic 1950s with bold elements mixed in with hard-working practicality. The standout front end is intact right down to the Mayflower hood ornament. Plus, the chrome bumpers are so big they look like they could push a train. But this classic Plymouth is not trying to be a hot rod. So there is a refreshingly honest impression that you see in everything from factory hubcaps, to the Sag Harbor gray paint that was refreshed over the car's lifetime. But even with its honesty, there is some undeniable flair in that sloping profile.

The tasteful interior is pure post-war comfort - like I Love Lucy and the smell of mom's cooking in the kitchen. The brown pattern upholstery and carpeting have been updated, but it never loses that '50s feeling. The rest of the six-person interior wears its age with pride by showing off how durable Plymouth made their products 65 years ago. That's why you get the original three-spoke steering wheel with three-on-the-tree easy shifting. Even the under dash heater is even there for those extra early morning drives to the car shows.

With a car that's looked this classically authentic so far, it's a delight to find a year-correct 218 cubic-inch six-cylinder under the hood. The engine bay is tidy and quite authentic, showing original-style parts including the Auto-Lite generator. The motor fires up easily just as a trusty Plymouth should, and it has that wonderful mechanical sound instantly reminds you of a bygone era. Good gearing and plenty of torque makes it peppy around town, and Plymouth cars really did ride much better than many of its rivals. The total package has the kind of reliability and comfort that gives this classic a usefulness beyond just a Sunday driver.

A rare name and good styling drew you in, but the honest and dependable setup is what we know you really love. So, when you only need a whim to enjoy this affordable history on wheels, you know it's a deal that will be leaving us soon. Call today!!!
