Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1937 Plymouth PT50 Pickup Truck! Leading into the mid-30s, the great depression was finally behind America but WWII would not be far away. Plymouth decided to enter the truck market for the first time and the PT50 was born. Plymouth is not well known for making trucks as they only manufactured them from 1935 to 1942. The PT50s are very desirable trucks but rarely seen, especially since only near 11,000 PT50s were sold in 1937. Now nearly 80 years later these trucks are still loved, many had hard work lives, several have been converted to street rods. Finding one that is more original is an extremely rare deal, and that is what we have here. Walking around this truck just brings a smile to you face. The blue exterior paint and black vinyl interior are both in good order. Turn the key, push in the clutch, pull out the chock, pump the gas, and then hit the start pedal and the 201ci Straight-6 lumbers to life and the 3-speed manual gearbox is on the floor. This truck runs and drives and when you are behind the wheel it invokes a nostalgia you cannot replicate. The current owner has had her for around 25 years, acquired from a private owner in Indiana. Believed to be a 4-owner truck. It was last painted not long after purchase back in 1997 by Charles Long out of Madison. This truck comes with newspaper articles where this PT50 was featured. Also includes various manuals and what looks like dealer catalogs, auto parts catalog and finally another set of hub caps. The title is clean and clear and is titled as a 1937 Plymouth 87TK. If you are looking for a unique truck, one that hasn't been subjected to being street-roded, a truck that does it best to remind us of a bygone era, this truck is for you! This 1937 Plymouth PT50 is offered by our Louisville Showroom and can be seen in greater detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD video at http://www.GatewayClassicCars.com.
