The Last 1958 Plymouth Belvedere - Christine Goes Home

[@frehleyrox]

That is one finely preserved restoration! Hats off to ya.

[@ripperace]

Incredible job! I’ll bet it was tough to let her go. Sounds like it was a lot of blood sweat and tears to build her. Damn pretty car!

A long time to buildout. The hours were ridiculous.

There is no way I could sell that car I hope the new owners take extremely good care of her and protect her from vandals or theft. Very good job ❤

Beautiful car!! I’m more of a late ‘60s muscle car guy myself but I’ll tell you what, these ‘Christine’ Plymouths are exceptional!!

[@CHICO976]

I owned a 57 Dodge Mayfair (only made in Canada) that looked just like this car..318 v8 , torsion bar suspension back in the mid 60's...great car to drive...

[@waynegouin939]

Hi. Damn, what a beauty. Love it. They just dont make em like this anymore. What a car. Compared to todays plastic eco junk this 58 Plymouth Belvy should be worth at least a million.

[@sickstuff7624]

A 1 of 2 Christine “screen used” car failed to sell at auction last year. The winning bid was $275,000. The owner wanted $500,000 so he didn’t sell. Honestly, I myself could never part with a Christine for any amount of money. I’d rather have the car than the money.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

I could have NEVER, ABSOLUTELY AND DEFINITELY NEVER let go something as beautiful/wonderful like this iconic automobile with it's unique design. Especially not after restoring it for years to be better than new! Extremely tough decision and I admire you for being able to do so. In my opinion respectively for my kind of taste this is one of the most beautiful cars in the world (if not the beautifullest)! Thanks a lot for making taping editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all involved people.

Beautiful! My Father had a 4 door 1957 Belvedere; greenand white. You did a beautiful job. It looks better than new!

[@mic08041977]

That's what I was just thinking, too: I guess this car now IS better than when she was brand new. I can't imagine they put so many attention and care to every even so tiny detail back in the 50s on the assembly line. Money can never pay for this amount of TLC and work that was put into this beauty, no matter how much one would pay!

The cars used in the movie are documented in a folder owned by the owner we restored his car back in 2011. They used half Belvedere and half Fury (whatever they could locate at that time)... and some of the cars were actually 57s put together... 20 approx in all. you are correct in this video shes a Belevdere... Martins car was a 58 Belvedere too and its stunt car 1 in the movie. hope this helps.

Great factory exact restoration of the 1958 Plymouth Beldevere "Christine". Having original straight steering column and drum brakes, makes a drive of this classic car in rainy weather really scary. Enjoy and be careful. Thanks.

[@moparedtn]

Such a wonderful work of love you folks have done here. THIS is the hobby at its' purest - years of painstaking, sometimes downright painful research, gathering, massaging and wrestling go into these types of cars. A person has to be disciplined, dedicated and fully committed to do one properly - and this one is obviously righteous in all regards. Good on ya, no idea how you could ever let her go....

[@johnwilkins866]

OHHH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Impeccable work on this car. I am old enough to remember the brand new 57 models of every make, and it was the 57 Chrysler Dodge and Plymouth models that produced my love for "Mopars", as my mom and grandmother had purchased a '57 Chrysler Windsor 4-door with the 392/2bbl. This 1958 , however is 10x times better then when they even came out of the factory. SUPER sweet, and to hear that the brightwork trim is the original on the car, along with the rear window gasket, just astounds me and is a testament to the workmanship and quality materials from those days, and you folks have outdone the factory work by far. To me, there would be nothing sweet about it leaving. I would most probably have tears in my eyes. KUDOS to a job most certainly well done, and you can beam with pride over that! BTW, my careerwas in the glass industry from commercial/residential glazing to automotive glass (my main focus), and the company I worked for would send me to several states to rectify issues in various stores, both from a management and employee standpoint, to cars that no-one could seem to figure out, much less install the glass correctly, hence my specific reference to the rear glass gasket. Job WELL DONE!! Isn't that the 318 poly motor with twin Carter afb's?

[@ES4406]

Thank you for taking the time to write! yes its a 318 with 2X4 WCFB cast iron base carbs correct numbers as per factory. they were tough to find and get parts for!

[@johnwilkins866]

@@ES4406 I'm honestly surprised you were able to find them. I look on Hemmings occasionally to try and find parts just to see what's available, and sadly it seems that there isn't much these days. Ohh, if we only knew then what we do now, perhaps parts would be easier to find and replace! Thank YOU for replying.
