This 1948 Plymouth Special DeLuxe station wagon was produced at Plymouth’s Detroit, Michigan factory, and it is powered by a 218ci L-head inline-six paired with a column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission and is finished in Balfour Green with ash and mahogany wood bodywork.
Power is from a 218ci L-head inline-six that was rated by the factory at 95 horsepower at 3,600 rpm when new.
The interior features three rows of seating trimmed in brown vinyl, and the car is equipped with a heater, a push-button radio, and a clock.
A 2-year refurbishment by L&S Restorations was completed in 1997.
