Veteran Posts: 197 Location: Mid Michigan | I have the opportunity to possibly purchase a pair of Plymouth convertibles. My understanding is these 2 convertible have been in a storage / pole building for some time. These cars are supposed to be complete but I have not seen them. I am trying to figure out what if any value these 2 cars would have. I do not want to insult the owner. He has a few other 57/58/59 Plymouth 2 Dr and 4 Drs that may also be for sale. Thanks for any input it would be greatly appreciated. Edited by coronetx2 2018-01-08 7:01 PM | ||

Veteran Posts: 197 Location: Mid Michigan | Well I have seen a couple of older pic of the 2 convertibles. I was told they are still there. Now I guess it will be spring before I can get a chance to see them in person. I would like to know if there are any areas that I should be looking at. Like (floors,glass, frame rails or motor/Trans). Again any input would be greatly appreciated Thanks again Phil | ||

Location: The Mile High City | Phil, I think the strongest influences on value are completeness, rust, and mechanical condition. | ||

Veteran Posts: 197 Location: Mid Michigan | Guess I will have to take a wait and see attitude. The pictures that I seen were older prints But it appears that someone has tried to fix passenger rear 1/4 and made a mess of it. | ||

Veteran Posts: 197 Location: Mid Michigan | Well I own them 58 convert is a shell but decent/repairable sheet metal and floors. 57 convert is a rust bucket but has all the missing parts for the 58. Also bought a 57 Plymouth 2dr sedan very low mileage 6 cylinder stick needs a front clip. Also got a bunch of other parts. Now I need to get things sorted out and see what I really have.
