In addition to my interest in the 444 Volvo, I am interested in the 1953-54 Studebaker coupes and 1949-52 Plymouths. All are among the cars I have owned which have special memories for me. I have them watch listed on Ebay.

Today I came across a listing for a 1952 Plymouth which has what I consider to be the best write up I have seen about these cars. Take a look at:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4604629953&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AUS%3A1

I think it would be great if someone with a working web site would start an article like this one on Plymouths, but covering the PV Volvos that came to the U.S. (1957-66, I guess). As I have been changing my 444 from an "original" car to a "mongrel" (544 brakes, trans, axle, radiator, 142 engine, etc.) using a B18 544 donor car, I have seen many of the little points of difference in the two models that could fit into such an article. Of course I am missing the B16 544 that came between.

Anyone else see the potential here? Or perhaps it has already been done and I have missed it?
