Lots of ding, but lots of car.....that is really cool and well presented.

Thanks to @T2R9 for displaying the thread so well.

Never knew Dodge had a matador model?
I always thought it would be an AMC

I googled it and they only made matadors for 59&60

 

[eldubb440]

not AMC's best effort

Nice car but far from original.

They also had a Suburban. The four door was a Sierra. Who stole who's name?

was it the electric fan that gave it away?

A friend had a low mileage 4 door. Driver's side seatback is taller, can just see it in the pic.

That was part of it. How bout the disc brakes, power brake booster, 413 engine, Alternator, upholstery and the "original equipment" comment.
Dodge didn't get the 413 or the alternator until 61. Only booster available in 60 was the bellows booster.

Some upgrades to a nice car. Nothing wrong with that.

I agree with that. Just not the "original equipment" claim. Tons of people get duped by that claim

The 56 Plymouth models looked very similar to the 57 Chevy's.....wait.....the Chevy came out a year later!

The thing cool beyond words.

VERY cool, maybe even one of a kind at this point - but that doesn't sound like an exhaust leak.

Beautiful car that depicts the
era. Everything was big back
then. Late 50's icons
included Oldsmobile, Buick,
Chrysler, Mercury....
4,000 lbs of history.
Big engines, bad brakes, AC
a rarity, no seat belts....
But, hey...us old farts
actually lived thru these
inadiquicies.
