1938 Plymouth Coupe Here & Gone...!!!
Some Dude' in Massachusetts just finished this 1938 Plymouth on Friday April 29th 2011. Saturday April 30th.2011 was to be a shakedown drive of about 50 miles just to see how it would run... While driving along and the left rear wheel came off...the car dropped and the gas tank was punctured...the rest, as they say, is history. He said all 5 lug nuts had come off and the studs were stripped on the updated 1990 Explorer rear end. All 3 of the following pictures were taken on Saturday April 30 2011, "within an hour + -".... This "W A S" A Beautiful Car! ! ! And the outcome was..... Those all to famous Last Words, Aww I don't need no insurance , I'm only going down the road...!!!

We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about. “Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”. |

I'm guessing the driver got out ok. Gotta love the shape and size of cars back then!

At least he had the right frame of mind to grab a shot of the car on fire. Can't save it, take some photo's.

Another bad connection with the Ford "Exploder". I feel for the guy, not a good outcome.
