1964 Plymouth Savoy Build

[Chuck Marshall]

I'm posting my 64 Plymouth Savoy build. Purchased this car 5 years ago on eBay. Los Angeles plaint built car shipped to Jerry Reid's Chrysler/Plymouth dealer in Glendale Arizona. When I purchased it, the pink slip was still in original owners name. Had no engine or interior except bench seat and rear seat. Original 6 cylinder 3 speed column car. Enjoy the pictures!

The head light light assemblies and harness is all the once off the car just cleaned up. The horns are original and function properly

All the moldings are original just re polished them and install with new molding clips

When I took the car apart the hood stricken and safety hook where cadmium plated so I had the originals replated

did you do the top half of the dash a mat red and the bottom half a gloss? I’m in the middle of body work myself and wondering if you had the colour code for the top and bottom of the dash?
