1938 Plymouth Business Coupe, P6 Deluxe. This car has been in the same family since new. It is a classic example of a Barn Find. It was last registered 12/18/61. It is a complete car in original unrestored. unmolested condition. The car is located in Northern Maine in a little town called Mars Hill. It is stored in a garage. Inspection would be up to the discretion of possible purchasers. The pictures say it all. It is need of complete restoration, but the good news is that it is complete. It would also be a great candidate for a Resto-Mod. As previously mentioned, the car is located in Mars Hill, ME which is just a few miles from the Canadian border. I am selling this for a friend, so direct any questions to me, and I will get with the owner to try and get your answer in a timely manner. The car belonged to my friends Grandfather who passed it on to his Mother and so on to him. It has been affectionately know as Juggy as far back as he can remember. The '38 Plymouth was was introduced in the fall of 1937 in two series: the cheaper Business line designated model P5 and the Deluxe line coded P6. As the economy worsened many of the people who were in position to purchase new cars picked the cheapest models available. However, they objected to having their cars termed "Business" models. After passing this complaint along to the factory, the dealers were notified in March that the P5 from then on would be named the "Roadking" instead. Body styles in the P5 Business/Roadking series included a business coupe and two- and four-door fastback sedans. A four-door touring sedan (so called because of its built-in trunk) joined the line in February and a two-door touring sedan was added in March. The Deluxe P6 series included business and rumble seat coupes, two- and four-door touring sedans, two- and four- door fastback sedans, a convertible coupe with rumble seat, the Westchester Suburban station wagon (which was returned to the passenger car chassis this year) and two seven- passenger sedans. The wheelbase for all models was 112 inches except for the 132-inch wheelbase seven-passenger sedans. Outwardly, the only noticeable difference between the P5 and P6 models was the lack of vent wing windows on the P5 cars. The buyer is responsible for moving the vehicle. If needs be, the buyer may store it in the garage where it is currently at when they will be traveling back to Maine. If you want it sooner, they have a man that takes care of things for them that would be there to help to get the car on a trailer for transporting it. I will be happy to provide you with a shipping quote. Should you have any questions, please email me with your questions and either an email address or phone number where I can get back to you. Thanks for taking the time to look at this car.
