Location: Newark, Texas (Fort Worth)		http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/cto/1862370248.html This is an all original 1958 Plymouth Silver Special. It has a Powerflite transmission with a 318 V8 engine. Body is good, chrome is above average, interior is fair. Runs great! Everything works including heater and radio. The Silver Special is a unique model for 1958 Plymouth which includes side "forwardlook" emblems on the rear fenders. The Silver Specials were a spring sales promotion. They came with silver wheels a silver top and wide white wall tires were standard and the price was $1958. Also, the side stainless mouldings along the doors are unique to the Silver Special. I've owned the car for four years and bought it from the original owner. Car has always been in San Francisco. VERY RARE CAR. $5500.

Very nice car, I believe it was for sale not too long ago. I like the moldings and the silver. Pretty cool.

Steve, Nick Nichols is an honest person to deal with, and I hope this goes through for you.

Location: bishop, ca		Steve, you probably want to carry a spare water pump with you and spare upper & lower radiator hoses (the
generic corrugated ones are fine).

The fan belts and maybe points/condensor probably should be replaced 'now',
unless they have recently been replaced.

I'd have Nick check out/overhaul the generator, for you, as well as have his mechanic check out the thermostat condition
and lube up everything, including the driveline and the wheel bearings.

The last thing that you need are 'surprises' during that cruise!

The wheel cylinders should be checked/replaced as necessary and the brakes adjusted.

And then, there's the tires' condition to consider....

Location: somerville mass		emailed today his mom passed away at 92. that would make her 40 in 1958 imsure nick was a kid and who knows she could have known the first owners

he told mme he has a hard time letting go of cars and i'm sure it has sentimental value i'm sure she liked it and could have even driven it.

i think he , now, may not want to sell it at all and i dont blame him.

Things have settled down now after my mom's passing so I am back to selling some cars off, especially since there are some expenses now. Anyone interested in the Silver Special please call me at 415 652-3926. Nick.

I e-mailed moparsteve but no response. Since no response, I reposted the craigslist ad and it is also on a local ebay listing.
