My Dad kept and still has his first car. It is a 1950 Plymouth Businessman's coupe. He paid a whoppin $50 for it used in the early 60's. He had it semi-restored(driver condition) in the mid 80's and I was able to drive it. It has a straight 6 with a three on the tree. I know the speed of those cars. Hot rodders back then would take a Chrysler 6 and put it in the Plymouth. I love the vacuum wipers. That hissing noise really drives me crazy. He gave the radio to a friend to repair and it is lost. The man had hip replacement surgery and had a person fill in for him. Everything was out of place when he got back to work. My 300B is a long term restoration project. I may have to take the Johnny Cash restoration route. One peice at a time, but it is going to cost a dime!!!
