'59 Plymouth Forum

I just found a pic of a brochure from Belgium and my eye cought it.
What is this???? Anybody ever saw it??

Just a guess, but doesn't that look like a placque?

That was also my guess but what the hell is it doing on the floor???

I might be totally wrong on this but I think I recall reading somewhere that certain 57/58 (or both) Plymouths had a placque on the floor somewhere. Maybe who ever made up this brochure got this mixed up with the 59's. Interesting.

Oh Oh, I just did a Roger I'm the "guest"

'Cept, 57/58's didn't have round trans pushbuttons, as I recall...

Dan - Thats definitely a picture (drawing?) of a 59. What I meant is that maybe the artist added the placque (if it is a placque) by mistake. Can anybody confirm that earlier Plymouths (57-58) had placques and where were they?

The only '57-'59 plymouths I am aware of using a plaque are the '59' Sport Furys, but on the glovebox door. i have both a '58 and '58 Fury and have never seen evidence of a plaque anywhere on those cars. Maybe this was a dealership item or was some kind of special promotion in the spring to help sell cars as they did on the '58 silver specials? ---John

58 Fury's also has a plaque. They are slightly diffent then the 59 plaques

Where would the plaque be located on a '58 Fury? I just recently picked this car up and didn't notice one on the dash. The car has been parked since 1969, and doesn't appear to have been monkeyed with. I also saw a '58 in a museum not long ago, and don't remember seeing one on it's dash either.---John

I don't know where they were. I still remember that we we're looking for a 59 plaque and that somebody had some repro 58 plaques and offered 1 to us. I have to look it up but it will take a while. I lost all my things on my computer. Just reinstalled everything!

Thanks Matthew, I'd appreciate it! ---John

I'm pretty sure it was on the floor. But now where did I read this????I am going to check my old Motor Trends, Popular Mechanics, and others I have.
