    Great car Jeff - my grandpa had the plymouth business coupe from that era. He sold sandwiches & donuts and such to area businesses back in the day. His was grey and not as nice as this one .Brings back memories. ! Thanks for sharing this beautiful Dodge.!

    Reminds me of a 1946 Mercury I had a chance to buy for 1500.00 back in 89. It was in excellent condition but the old man who owned it had used a paintbrush and I think silver house roof paint on it cause the brush strokes were thick and everywhere. It was a sight to behold.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 4 lety

      I've seen a few cars over the years that were brush painted. Use what you have I guess :) Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!

    Beautiful body lines. This is the first time I have ever seen one of these. At least of what I can remember. It seems many beautiful pre war cars just went away shortly after the war. Maybe it's just me.

    Beautiful unmolested example of the Dodge business coupe. If the underside is as good as the body, what bargain at this price. Like you said, not many old Dodges left.

    Thanks for posting! A really nice orginal survivor. At a quick glance the car looks like a Ford or Mercury. My dad had a '41 Plymouth business coupe. He told me he bought it new and it was black like the one in this photo. Before he joined the Marines in '44 he was a truant officer for Cincinnati public schools....i.imgur.com/kzF7ZHl.jpg

    Long time no see, I am glad you are doing fine with this stupid pandemic. I love this car, I would leave it mostly as is, except I would have to replace the headliner and get rid of those moon disc. But it looks like it would be a great daily driver. I have not had a chance to watch your videos in almost 2 years so I got lots of new material to watch.

    Perfect moonshine haulers, my grandfather souped up his 39 Mercury coupe and made lots of hauls while out running the cops. He was finally caught and arrested out back behind a store trading the store owner moonshine for sacks of sugar and spent 9 months in jail. But they had to catch him sitting still. 😉

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 4 lety

      That's awesome that your Grandpa used to haul shine. This Dodge would have made a great moonshine hauler, although a V8 would have been nice.
