The Chrysler Corporation introduced its postwar models in late 1945 and built them largely unchanged until early 1949. These cars were enormously successful at the time. The Custom Convertible on offer is finished in yellow with burgundy interior. The Custom line Dodge models are distinguishable from the Deluxe line primarily by the addition of rear fender moldings and dual electric wipers. You also notice the impressive chrome grille and molding body molding that extends from the grille to the trunk. The Dodge is powered by a 230-cid, 102-hp inline six-cylinder engine that is connected to a three-speed manual transmission. Among the options readily seen are turn signals and electric clock. Dodge produced 9,500 two-door convertibles in 1948, only 3,167 were the Custom model.
