Pre-War Plymouth Barn Find Comes to Life After First Wash In 43 Years

1 min read

With over a century of automotive history, we’d be willing to bet that there are a plethora of older cars lurking in the US, waiting to be discovered. Most of those vehicles rot in old garages – or barns – piling decades into their resumes.

One such car was the Plymouth PJ sedan, which was introduced in a less developed era in the US during the ’30s. Prior to its launch, the stock market and businesses collapsed. Suffice it to say, the US economy was down during that time and Chrysler wanted to introduce a suitable vehicle for the price-conscious public.

Plymouth PJ was born. It was the biggest low-priced car on the market that used far less fuel than its competitors. More than 350,000 PJs were sold, and one of them made its way into garages in 1983.

Since then, the 1935 Plymouth PJ has been featured by NYC ammo here it doesn’t move. However, the presenter of the video above estimates that it was not properly washed for much longer than it was stored, which is as long as 43 years.

The classic pre-war Plymouth was of course in bad shape. The current owner wants to return it to a running state, and then sell it to a worthy buyer who will enjoy the car. to do so, NYC ammo gets to work and gives the rusty four-door a serious detail, inside and out.

It’s not an easy task. The interior itself has become a home for other living things, resulting in disgusting upholstery conditions. The process must also be complex, as modern processes may not be suitable for aging and deteriorating cabins.

Once the details were finalized it was time to get Plymouth up and running again. Fortunately, the six-cylinder engine roared back to life through the hands of a skilled mechanic.
