I purchased this Plymouth P9 in early July of 2016.
Since receiving it, I have poured money into it to correct things done improperly, or just to do badly needed maintenance. It is now a driver, where before, it was definitely not (contrary to what the previous owner stated in his listing). Work done since receiving the car: - king pins replaced-
brakes done all around, including new hydraulic cylinders- shocks replaced- carburetor rebuilt- generator rebuilt- radiator re-cored- new heat riser kit installed - exhaust manifold repaired- brake pressure switch replaced twice- brake/rear lights replaced with LED- plugs, wire set, points, condenser, rotor cap, rotor, vacuum advance replaced- oil changed twice (correct zinc additive used), along with filter cartridge- bright lights repaired and now working normally- headlights replaced- water pump replaced- proper plumbing and thermostat housing, and new thermostat, installed- new 6V battery- key ignition replaced- installed two new fuel filters- multipoint inspections completed at end of 2017
and 2018 driving seasons- a number of small adjustments made to improve car (such as to gear shifter, muffler, rear bumper leveled, additional jute padding added to the seat for more comfort, etc.
)The engine is now, after a couple years of tweaking, running like a sewing machine. As for the history of this classic, I believe it was restored about ten years ago. Also included is a box of spare parts, and the owner's and maintenance manuals, two keys, and the battery minder. The body of this automobile is really solid, and the doors open and close crisply, with no sag on the hinges. The horns work very nicely, with a great, full sound. Directional signal lights and all other lights work
fine, including the panel lights/map light. The tires show no issues, and being classic " all weather" tires, are period correct.
The steering is pretty tight for a car of this age, as is the shifting. The windows roll up and down pretty easily, and the glass is generally in good shape. The trunk opens and closes and latches closed just fine, with no slop. The interior is very good to excellent. Finally, there is little to no rust showing on the undercarriage. The car starts and drives well, and looks really good. The paint is not perfect, but I would rate it excellent. The chrome is really good with a few small flaws, while the stainless trim is excellent.
But bear in mind that I am not a collector! This is the only classic car I've ever owned, and I have never shown it. My motivation for buying it is that I had always wanted a car from the 1940s.
