1952 Plymouth Concord

The Plymouth Concord was built between 1951 and 1952 and was the company's entry-level and least expensive model in the lineup, serving as a replacement for the Deluxe.

The 1952 Plymouth models received minor changes over their 1951 siblings due to the outbreak of war in Korea. Signature style chrome script plates could be found on the front fenders and the emblem on the nose of the car received a slight redesign. The overdrive transmission was a technical innovation by Plymouth for 1952.

The Concord Series was available in Deluxe or Special Savoy trim. Pricing began at $1,750 for the 2-door sedan and rose to $2,290 for the Special Savoy Suburban. Power was from an L-head six-cylinder engine displacing 217.8 cubic-inches and offering nearly 100 horsepower. The wheelbase measured 111-inches and had an overall length of 188.5-inches.

A three-speed manual transmission was standard and overdrive was a $102 option. Additional options included grille guards, bumper guards, wheel trim rings, full disc wheel covers, heater and defroster, radio and antenna, glove compartment lock, electric clock, mudguard flaps, and special body covers.

Production of the Concord ceased in October 1952.
