Might I jump into. I am also looking for fender emblems. Please feel free to contact me. thanks thom

Thank you very much for your support. I actually saw this car before. And yes, it could be a beauty. After all, my P15 Business Coupe almost looked the same given that mine was also in a light cream colour shade. But they are simply a tiny bit too tight in the back-seat area. And as I have to pack to kids in the back as well - at least occasionally - the 1949 world is simply more spacious. :-)

By the way - blue is kind of unusual for cars of that period - so I believe - but it certainly fits this Plymouth really well :-)

No I have not. Thanks. But that is too much of a project for me, especially with such a starting price.

By the way: Have just noticed that the green one is now also on sale (probably at your old place: vintage motor cars?). But I must say: the colour combination of green, red interior and beige top is kind of akward to say the least :-) But than, it is always in the eye of the beholder, isn't?

Okay. Good luck on your business quest :-)

Thanks. But please, no hazzle for you. Thom

Certainly nice, but just not my cup of tea :-) Feels like driving an almost too new car :-) And I do like the 40s style simply that bit more.

Thank you all for your "internet inspirations". Those I have found also and I have activated google alert to help my search. So I should "read" about any new offerings coming up. But - so I believe - very often good quality cars never actually show up on the internet as they are being sold directly. So, maybe if you hear something do let me know. Thom

Dave, you are absolutely right. I expect a very good to good convertible to go for the high 20s also. And that is what I am willing to invest. There actually is one on offer on craiglist on the east cost (would be better for me), but that would need a lot of work done. Unfortunately.

Honestly, I am a Mopar fan. The P15 series - as already indicated - I certainly like the most. The 1950 convertible certainly looks a bit beefier, but the fin aspect of the 49 model I find quite appealing. And yes, I have to admit, if I could I would go for a Chrysler convertible. But certainly not in my price range.

Hi Dave, I suppose you are working on cars like this? Amazing to have two in one garage at the same time. The red one I would have bought bought immediately.

Hi, thanks for your remarks. Yes, dependable they are. And you are absolutely right - no highway burners. I just previously sold my P15 Business Coupe. With a family extension just having one bench just isn't enough anymore. Unfortunately, because the P15 Business Coupe style I really like the most. Actually, I also find P15 convertibles "better looking". But they simply haven't got enough space in the rear seat area. In terms of highway burner potential I am intending to install an OD in my next car. Will not enhance the top speed obviously, but will make highway driving a bit more comfortable.

Hi and Hello, I am totally new here and still I want your help. I have decided upon my next car for purchase: It shall be a 1949 Plymouth convertible. For various reasons that I am more than happy to discuss. I am obviously scanning the net for offers, but yet with rather little success. What am I looking for: Close to stock and in best as possible shape. Thank you very much for your help. Thom
