1939 Plymouth Convertible Coupe

1939 Plymouth Convertible Coupe

The 1939 Plymouth sported a completely new look and was touted as the best looking Plymouth in years. The biggest change was the stylish "vee'd" front end, with a multi-piece grill and a two pane windshield. The headlights were rectangular and were gracefully formed into the front fenders. Perhaps the best buy in the line was the convertible coupe, the only open top car in the entire Chrysler lineup for 1939. The Plymouth convertible also offered the first and only power operated top in the automotive industry, controlled by a button on the dash. The options included fenderskirts, a pushbutton radio and spotlights.

Hi Scott, Thanks for your comments on these old cars.I am glad to see that more and more people are looking at them and enjoying the many pictures and stories. I did browse through some of the Wahoo Art pictures for a few minutes and enjoyed that. I believe that I already have some of the more famous works in an old textbook from college that dealt with art and culture but I did not look up the textbook to check it out. Thanks again for your comments and please continue to watch the old car blog as I keep adding more and more to it.

Best wishes for your good health and happiness,
