The pictures aren’t as good as I’d like, but this 1941 Plymouth complete with a DeSoto Hemi (!) could be one of those hot rods that makes magazine covers (we’ll be happy to feature it if you buy it and finish it!) It’s up for sale here on eBay and is being offered with a buy it now of $3,950 and, get this, lower offers will be considered! You or your shipper will have to travel to Littlestown, Pennsylvania to pick it up if you are the lucky bidder. 

We’re not blessed with the best pictures of this find, but you can see here that it’s been stored for a long time based on the dust and dirt. The seller just tells us it’s been stored for a long time, but they seem very willing to be contacted if you want more details.

It’s apparent that many parts have been piled on the Plymouth over the years. I’d want to make sure that you knew exactly what parts are part of the auction and what aren’t before bidding.

There’s not really much of an interior to show you. So, for inspiration, I decided to find some other 1941 Plymouths to link to. Take a look at this one, this one, and this one. Yes, they are all street rods, but that’s what whomever buys this car is going to create, right?

And, of course, here’s the Hemi! I’m guessing the engine in the car may actually be the original one, which would be a 201 cubic inch flathead six cylinder. On the other hand, this is a DeSoto Hemi that displaces 276 cubic inches. That would make it originally from a 1952 to 1954 DeSoto, and originally having 160 to 170 horsepower. Of course, that can be greatly increased by deviating from stock (as I’m sure someone will). So are you that person? Would you like the challenge of building that hot rod that somehow differs from every other one? I’d love to hear the details!
