Welcome to the auction of my 1957 Plymouth Savoy<br />
<br />
This car was imported by myself back in 2014 from Scottsdale AZ. a nice dry state. I know its said on every auction but this car really was a car that was going to be kept in our family forever. However, changes to life have meant this beautiful car is up for sale. And yes, I will probably shed a tear when she leaves... This said, I am not giving the car away either. This is a jump in and go anywhere classic car. Im that confident if you pay me I will drive it to you anywhere in mainland Europe! We recently had a 818 mile round trip over a long weekend with zero issues. She keeps up with modern traffic, doesnt overheat and of course turns lots of heads when cruising along<br />
<br />
So to the car: She has a small block 318cu mated to a 3sp auto box. The box shifts smoothly and pulls along very nicely. Economically wise, I dont know or care tbh. When she is empty she gets filled up. As a rough guide during our trip to Whitby I commented that it would have been more expensive to drive my work transit up there!<br />
The interior i would go as far saying its 100%! No tears or rips even the interior light works! Seats are comfortable and firm. Headlining is perfect with no sagging whatsoever. We added a centre console designed and built by Chris the hotrod trimmer to make the shifter tidier and added a usb port. Fuel gauge is erratic and I dont trust it! Original fuel gauge,temp gauge do not work but after market ones have been installed and look tidy and in keeping<br />
The paint 90%. I have no idea when or where she was painted as its how we imported her. The idea was to "Christine" her but loved the way she was different and kept her as is. A few signs of age but only obvious close up<br />
The engine. As said runs smooth no heating problems. Keeps up pace with road traffic comfortably. Whilst this car is MOT exempt she get regular checks from Chris at Hodgys Speedshop.. Check him out, he is very passionate about cars and great at what he does. Ask him about this old girl yourself<br />
<br />
As a bonus I have all the paperwork from when I imported her, including a copy of the original title. Along with the sale comes 4x brand new whitewall tyres and 2no additional wheels. She was also on the front cover of Classic Car, and a spread article inside. I will give this to the buyer also<br />
<br />
Now the rules: Please come and see her for yourself, this is my rose tinted view of her, it may not be yours. I have been as honest as I can but opinions differ. I will not be lowballed. The cars can stay with me for as long as I get the value I want. For how rare, condition and reliability of this classic vehicle I thinks its a very fair value. Message me on here or text me on 07966672923. Text first as I dont answer unknown calls as I have a fear of phones!! I will assist on shipping this car anywhere in the world or come and collect and drive her home..Hey pay me and I will drive her to you! Car will not leave my ownership until funds are cleared..Once bought there is no going back, sold as seen so do come and check her over<br />
<br />
Now go buy her and enjoy being the only 1957 Plymouth at every show you attend!<br />
