The Plymouth Belamont was first presented to the public as a concept car in 1954 at the New York Auto Show. The concept never went into series production, but unlike other concept cars, it has survived to the present day.
In those years, concept cars were used as long as they were interesting, and then they were destroyed. Plymouth Belmont became dear to the heart of the then vice president of design at ChryslerTo Virgil Exner. Under special conditions, he "adopted" him and that's how it happened preserved until today. A concept from 1954 has a body made of glass fibers, V8 engine in size 241 cubic inches and 3-speed automatic transmission. Today, the Plymouth Belmont has been completely restored and shines in all its beauty. It will be offered at auction and thus undoubtedly made one of the collectors of these happy exotic cars.
