1931 Plymouth 3 Window Coupe Hemi Rat Rod

Description

This 1931 Plymouth 3 Window Coupe Hemi Rat Rod is a rolling work of art that blends vintage style with raw, unbridled power. The heavily patina'd body, adorned with rust holes, tells a story of a life well-lived. The chopped top, suicide doors with custom hinges made from rod bearing caps, and the absence of side windows give this rod an aggressive, no-nonsense stance. The Packard swan hood ornament leads the charge, while the chrome spiderweb grille with chrome spikes adds a touch of menace. Plexiglass front and rear windows keep the elements at bay, while the frenched 50's Cadillac tail lights and deleted trunk lid complete the look. This rod rides on 18" front wheels wrapped in 3-18 Firestone tires from 2015 and 15" rear wheels with 12.50-15 MT dragsters.

The interior is a minimalist's dream, with diamond plate steel floorboards, multicolored blanket upholstery over the bucket seats, and a wooden three-spoke steering wheel. The tall Lokar shifter with a green skull knob puts the power in your hands, while the corrugated steel dash houses aftermarket gauges including water temp, volts, oil pressure, fuel, speedometer, and tach. Front and rear-facing cameras add a modern touch to this old-school bruiser.

Powering this beast is a 330ci DeSoto FireDome Hemi V8, topped with three 9 Super 7 two-barrel carbs that resemble Strombergs. The power is sent through a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission to a 9" rear end. The custom tube chassis features a solid front axle on a mono leaf spring, while the rear boasts a multi-link setup with mono leaf and shocks. Rear manual drums provide stopping power. An electric fan on an aluminum radiator keeps things cool, while the cog belt drive spins the water pump and alternator.
