Without any indication from the seller or side trim or nameplates to go by, we’d just be taking a stab at the exact model of this 1958 Plymouth four-door for sale on Hemmings.com (Savoy, we’re guessing). But the model is really secondary nowadays, given that the owner of the car has restomodded it with the incongruous combination of taxi-anonymous looks on the outside and a modern Hemi V-8 under the hood. From the seller’s description:
Recently completed body-off restoration. Was fitted with a modern 5.7L Dodge Hemi motor with electronic fuel injection and drive-by wire gas pedal. Trans is the 545RFE automatic used by Dodge trucks (made by Mercedez). Dana 60 limited slip differential. Suspension completely overhauled. Front disk brakes. Digital auxilliary guages and custom floor auto shift linkage. Completely stainless exaust with flowmaster and cats. Every nut/bolt is new stainless. Chassis powdercoated. Beautiful red and white tuck’n roll interior with chrome piping around seats.
