       Location: Ohio | I am assisting a friend with the sale of this car.
Even though the car is not mine I have extensive knowledge on the condition, parts and all other details including 100's of pictures.
If I didn't already have way too many projects then this Dodge would be in my barn.
The convertible is part of a "package deal" that includes the following:
• 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible – Project
• 1960 Dodge Phoenix 4-door – Parts car
• Dodge Custom 880 Convertible – Rear clip with ALL convertible specific parts: top brace, rear wheel inner wheelhouses, lower rockers, rear wheelwell lip, convertible top structure / bracing
$2800.00 for ALL the above "package deal"
PLUS included are many boxes of used original parts removed from both cars.
The owner would prefer to sell ALL of the cars and parts as a package deal. If someone is ONLY interested in the Phoenix convertible the price is still $2800.
The 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible is a rolling shell - Needs Total restoration
Both the VIN and Fender tags on the car.
Body code "535" on fender tag is a real convertible.
The original paint color is “T” which is Tan metallic with matching beige / tan interior
NO Title Sold with Bill of Sale
Originally a 318 with torqueflite auto trans - No engine but trans is still in the car.
There is another 318 poly engine in the 4-door parts car.
The 4-door parts car has a title. Also good front fenders, floors, rockers and rear quarters to use for repair panels.
All of the hard to find convertible windshield moldings, power top mechanism front & rear quarter glass are with the car.
Because of the picture size limitation on the forum only posting a few. I can provide more information and pictures showing details of both cars and the parts.
Serious interested buyers send me a PM or email SpaceWagon@zoominternet.net
In addition I have many 1960 Dodge NOS parts available that would offer to the buyer. The price of those parts would depend on what / which parts are wanted for the car.

       Location: Ohio | I believe that the Interior trim Code "172" is the color / pattern shown at the bottom in the 1960 Dodge Dart brochure.
All vinyl in 2-tone color option of Brown / Gray

Thanks for posting the data plate picture;
Some my investigations about ’60 Dodge fender tags built at the St. Louis plant:
Top Line:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
Code under the numbers
2 is 3 = Rear Quarter Stone Shields (413) – not sure
3 is 1 = Radio Music Master (421) – not sure
9 is 1 – (actually 7 is 1) = Windshield Washer (511) – not sure
0 is 2 = Sold Car (602)
Middle Line:
A B C D E F G H J K L M N P Q R S T V W
Under Letter Codes
A is 3 = Torqueflite Transmission (283)
B is 1 = Power Steering (291) – not sure
Q is 5 = Heater (315)
R is 2 = White Convertible Top Color (332)
Yes, you are right; the trim code 172 is two-tone tan vinyl:

       Location: Ohio | Of course like most FL cars the floor is rusted on the Phoenix convertible.
However, as outlined in the description the 4-door parts car has a solid floorpan to use for repair

| No seats, door panels, etc for the convertible what so ever? The car looks pretty close to breaking in half, do the doors even open and shut? |

| Not sure how either of those questions were unfounded statements? There is very little holding that car together. So there is no interior whatsoever? |

       Location: Ohio | After several interested "maybe' deals and then my own back & forth consideration on whether or not to restore the 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible, realize that have way too many projects.
Therefore, the 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible is back on the market. Not many 1960 FL convertibles out there and this car can be saved.
I will also be updating the post with some additional pictures showing the parts that go with the car.
Plus, I have boxes of 1960 Dodge parts including NOS that are available for an additional $500.00
There are a lot of details included in the original post so if interested please review and send me a PM with any questions. Always willing to discuss directly to provide more info.

       Location: Ohio | Some things have changed with the property where this project is located. This maybe the LAST CHANCE to make a deal before everything SCRAPPED !!!
As stated in my other posts, I have way too many projects and unfortunately will probably never get to restoring this 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible. Therefore, would really like to see it go to someone that will restore the car or use the parts to save another convertible.
Again this maybe the LAST CHANCE to make a deal.
If interested in the 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible as a package deal or just the parts cars, send a PM. I will be glad to talk directly with serious buyers to provide more details on condition, parts included and answer any other questions.

       Location: Ohio | The 1960 Phoenix convertible project is still available.
Have a 1960 Dodge Polara that will sell as package deal with the Phoenix convertible. The car would be perfect to use for building a Polara convertible.
Can see the Polara in this link http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80479&...
All the other NOS and convertible ONLY parts are still included. |
