Default Plymouth - yes

Hello all

Yes Richard ,

It was great , with around 35 ex miltary Dodges among many other MV's . Weather was perfect , sunny all the time . Spotted very few British makes , a Fwd control Landrover was one .

Yes guys , it is a 1941 plymouth badged as a Dodge . Chrysler here re grilled the 41 Plymouth as Dodges and De Sotos . Special grilles were made in Nth America to fake up the Plymouth to look like a Dodge or De Soto . I owned 2 of them in the early 80's , but as Phill said , they are very prone to rust . They all had the Canadian 3 3/8" bore engine , different to the shorter US engine .
The Dodges were D20 the De soto SP11 .

They make a comfortable vehicle to rally in , nice at 50 mph . The pictured one drove down from QLD .

Mike
