The Belvedere officially became a mid-size car in 1965 when the C-body platform finally returned for the full-size Fury. Two trim levels were offered, Belvedere I and II, with the latter being a step up in creature comforts (unless you opted for the new Satellite). The same little old lady owned this 1967 Belvedere II for 57 years (1967 to 2024), and it spent most of its time in a garage. Its condition is excellent for the age; the Mopar is in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and is available here on eBay. The current bid is $4,050 with no reserve.
This car has an interesting story. The original owner bought it at the hometown Plymouth dealer around Christmas of 1966, and it stayed in the area throughout her ownership. She eventually retired to a nursing home at age 100 and sold the car. She and it are said to still be flourishing. No kids were involved, just a dog who wore the back seat out slightly, even though it has those grandma see-through covers on it. The rest of the interior seems to be in fine shape.
Rust doesn’t seem to be an issue, and the copper paint looks to be original (though maybe a little faded). At 52,000 miles, this Plymouth should have lots of life left, including the original 318 cubic inch V8 and TorqueFlite automatic transmission. Everything works as it should, and the dashboard lights are as bright as they can be. As far as turnkey automobiles are concerned, the seller believes this Belvedere can’t be beat.
All sorts of goodies come with the sale, such as the original owner’s manual, fender tag, Certi-Card issued by Chrysler, and even the factory spare tire, which has never been used. As long as the number of doors doesn’t turn you off, this Plymouth should be an excellent example of how automobiles were done in the 1960s.
What a fantastic find!
318 ci, TorqueFlight, bench seats-with the rear under the clear plastic JC Whitney type cover. And a No Reserve auction at that.
Somebody is gonna score a sweet ride.
HINT TO NEW OWNER:LEAVE IT JUST AS IT IS. Well, maybe buff the paint and check the date code on the tires…

Funny he keeps that dash cover on with all the pictures. Nice car but has had some repairs on that right side – grandma dents/repairs we say….not sure what it will sell for without the A/C but might just go to Europe on account of that.
My grandparent’s first car was a brand-new 1967 Belvedere 4-door. It was off-white, black interior, same hub caps as this one, 318 automatic with factory A/C and an AM radio, and probably power steering, bought in the Bronx where they lived. It got an oil change every 1500 miles, so that 318 must’ve been good as new when it was stolen for the 2nd or 3rd time in 1981, and they never saw it again.
This one checks all the boxes for
me! And the new owner could fly
in and drive it home! And while it’s not the most flashy thing on the road, it’s got it where it counts! All original and untouched– just the way I’d like to
find ’em. Too bad I don’t have the
cash to make a bid. If I did, and I
won it, I’d get a friend to drive it home for me and I’d call shotgun!
To me, there’s no better way to get acquainted with a new to you.
classic car than to fly out and drive it home. Might cost you air
fare, food, fuel, and a couple of hotel rooms, but the trip would be
worth it!
And then I’d get those young people from WD Detailing on YouTube to clean it thoroughly and give ‘er the works. After that,
I’d take it to Old Town and cruise it on Saturday nights weather and
SIL permitting.
What do they charge paying customers?

Amazingly wonderfu. Brings me back to that time. Was that 318 in 1967 a poly or an LA? Looks like an LA to me, but thought that was 1968?
It’s an LA. 1966 was the last year for the poly.
Actually no….they kept the poly another year…..but correct on it being a LA base motor…..and they also kept that little 273 around as well…
Dunno Steve. I’ll have to try and find that out. They seem to have a lot of merch for you to buy but
they don’t provide a way to contact them. Their videos have been on YouTube for a few years
now and I think I’ve seen most of them. From what I’m seeing here,
it won’t take much to make her look like new again.
Looks like your grandparents could have just rolled up in it. Nice looking sixty year old Plymouth.
Learned to drive and also dated my now wife in this car’s light blue twin. My Dad was a Chrysler dealer and took it in trade and it became my Mom’s car. The over boosted power steering was great for winter time power slides!
does it come with the fosters farms chicken suits ?
It really doesn’t matter how nice it is, with that many doors it needs a lot more roof
what a great survivor. love colors and the story. good deal here.
A plain brown wrapper!
Very nice!
I hope who gets this beauty leaves it as. No stupid headers and loud exhaust. No useless Apple BS in the dash, etc. Seller most likely stole this from the old lady for a song. Better built, better running and far less aggravation than any new pile of crap built today.
What an awesome old Plymouth, and an amazing find. I hope it goes to someone that will take care of it as well as granny did.
Sold on 9/14/2026 for a high bid of $7,600, there were 35 bids from 16 bidders.
