The Brewers, not Braves, were playing there though in my day. (1960 Dodge Milw Cty Stadium.jpg) Attachments ---------------- 1960 Dodge Milw Cty Stadium.jpg (116KB - 192 downloads) | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | I have always found it hard to believe that Plymouth built a Belvedere 2 door sedan. Just seems like a contradiction of top model and el cheapo body type. I found a midnight blue with white top/ sweep example once that had been customized to fit a camper to the rear portion of the body ! | ||

Exner Expert 19,174 posts. Neil passed away 18 Sep 2015. You will be missed, Neil! Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | Brent's referring to the top of the line (sub-Fury) Belvederes. The only 2-dr sedan that Dodge offered was in its bottom level Coronets (in either 6 cylinder or V/8 persuasions). So, it kinda makes sense that a customer who really was jones-ing for a 2-dr sedan would have the opportunity to buy a 'loaded' deluxe one (Plymmie only), if he really wanted one. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | 1960fury - 2014-05-10 10:48 AM if you find that hard to believe what do you think of dodge/buick/pontiac 2 door sedans? :) ================================================= As Neil pointed out, it was Plymouth's top shelf model. Dodge did not offer a Custom Royal 2 door sedan, as Buick did not offer a Roadmaster 2 door sedan, or Pontiac a Bonneville 2 door sedan. Plymouth was a little different, that's all. I have never seen many of them, and too lazy to go look up production numbers, but I don't think they built many, compared to the Savoys and Plazas. Interesting cross breed of top model and a body type generally purchased by persons attracted to lower priced models. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Just for comparison, how many in the Savoy and Plaza lines ? I wonder how this would compare to Chevy and Ford's 2 door sedan numbers ? Something that immediately comes to mind is how (in my own head), Plymouth was "so much MORE car" than those other two, even though they really were direct competitors. This is my own paradigm, but I tend to think of Chrysler NY'ers as being fancy cars, ... just as I do Fireflites. Yet, truth be told, I have seen a LOT of both that were pretty basic cars in terms of options and overall driver "plush", whereas I have seen a pretty fair number of "lowly" Plymouths that were very nicely equipped, calling into question the paradigm that a Chrysler is somehow a much more "upscale" car than a Plymouth. Based on what ? Period advertising ? Some trumped-up mystique ? What is that mystique based on ? In many ways, "cheaper" makes were often delivered as nicer cars than the so-called "fancy" makes ! | ||
