1954 Dodge Coronet Delux Description

Here is a fresh barn find that you won’t find every day!

Only two owners not counting me and 52,000 original miles. The car is in very good condition for being 64 years old and it looks like it was repainted once in the 70’s. It has the 241 Red Ram Hemi with an automatic transmission. The car runs good with no smoke. It will move forward and backwards under its own power. However, it does have some problems.

  • Mechanical Fuel pump isn’t pumping fuel. I Installed a new pump but still nothing. I ended up started the car with an electric fuel pump and a gas can (which the car ran very nicely)

  • Has a transmission fluid leak (rear seal or a line)

  • Rear end leak (pinion seal??)

  • Will need some work done on the wiring for the lights (only some work)

  • No brakes (e brake still works)

This car has a very cool story. It was purchased brand new in Columbus Ohio in 1954, in the 70’s it was gifted to the original owner’s neighbor’s son. Then in 1985, the title was moved for the neighbor’s mom to the gentlemen I purchased the vehicle from. The vehicle has had no other actively since I purchased it a few months ago. The car has spent most of the past 50 years moving for one warehouse to another. Also, in that 50 year window, the vehicle was mostly kept inside and away from the elements. With a small amount of work and some elbow grease, you will be cruising a sweet patina classic that you don’t see at every car show.
