Stored Since ’88: 1965 Plymouth Belvedere

Possibly caged since 1988, Tweety Bird is surfacing from the back seat, staring at you with a large innocent eye hoping you’ll buy this 1965 Plymouth Belvedere and take them home from Foster, Rhode Island. To do so, you first have to pay the $7,500 starting bid price, with no reserve. The listing states that there are 43,000 miles and a VIN is listed. Thank you, Jamie, for the tip. You can view more on eBay.

The rest of the listing is quite a conundrum. It says the car has been sitting since 1988, but does run and drive and will need brake work. How they know it runs and drives if it has been sitting that long is perplexing. It is listed as having a 440 cubic inch V8 that is a J code and an automatic transmission. According to the listing, bodywork has been done at some point in its history, but no details are given.

There is no specific photo of the interior. The only glimpse we get is the photo that you can see of Tweety Bird hopelessly giving you a puppy dog eye amongst a green, nice looking interior. Beyond that, the only clue we have of the interior is a picture of the mileage on the speedometer, and that is it. All the other photos in the listing are not the highest quality, poorly composed, and oriented improperly.

Hunches and guesses could be drawn, and without trying to back one’s self into a corner, assumptions could be loosely made. The car has dealer paperwork and is being sold with a bill of sale. It is hard to know what the winning bid will go for and some communication with the seller should be made before bidding or purchasing. A phone number is listed. Who knows, this could be a hidden, emerald, gem.

    Looks like a really decent B body,and those signature C pillars make these very popular in that price range.Ergo,an early bird caught a worm.
