Stella's Saturday Special: Fire up the 58 Plymouth Savoy!

- Hi!
Just thought I'd drag the '58 Savoy out of the barn this May, fire it up for the hell of it, and drive it around the compound a bit...
I bought this car years ago and some of you were asking about it, so here is some more glamorous footage of that fine automobile! The 230-inch flathead still runs ok, and still leaves a nice blue haze as it chugs around. I am still collecting parts to make a nice 57 and a nice 58 coupe. I have almost everything I need now, so I will actually build these cars as soon as a couple of others are done.
Anyway, thanks for watching this stuff; I'm almost done the next episode of "Will it Run?", but I thought I'd put this little video up in the meantime for those of you who just like looking at junkers rattling around!
Cheers from me and Stella, and the rest of the Agents! Thanks again for watching and subscribing! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
![Today I Drive: 1958 Plymouth Savoy [Episode 5]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/oS5VcdpiC4g/mqdefault.jpg)
Out of all your cars, this is still my favorite.
Somebody a few blocks from me has a 61 Plymouth. When we bought this house a few years ago, it was the first 61 Plymouth I had seen in decades.
Every time I see one of these on the road, it totally boggles my mind knowing that rarely do you see a '57-'58 Plymouth that's NOT a "Christine" replica but just how it rolled out of the showroom 30 or so years ago! Also, given what it requires to put one of these back together (not a very big aftermarket for this car) it's a true labor of love for sure!
You got the best old car channel hands down I've seen them all
A runner as well as a driver. More than I could hope for. Your gas can looks like an I.V. bottle giving the Savoy life once again
As my license frome once stated " What the hell, it runs !!".
love your channel, as a kid growing up on vancouver island we lived next to a wrecking yard and i was all over those ol cars...turned me into the gearhead i still am today...
That's a great ol '58, it kind of has a Canada meets Cuba vibe goin on.
Yes...It's called 'Canuba'......haven't told the Americans yet ......
Those were one of the last American cars in Cuba

Christie's sister, the vicious Savoy!!!!.
I had to watch this episode again after seeing that Savoy model car.
Same Same
I love binge watching the old stuff!! Y’all sound so young!!!
Me too.
"I Knew a guy who had a car like that once, fuckin' bastard killed himself in it."
+retroolschool oh! well then
+BIG_ J Its a quote from the movie Christine.
+retroolschool oh ok never watched that movie sorry
+BIG_ J features a similar plymouth.
son of a bitch was so mean, you coulda poured boiling water down his throat and he would've pissed ice cubes
Seeing how these old barges are lovingly maintained just makes my heart swell. Along with my ankles and feet.
Stella is the best.Bless that dog.
Awesome car 😎👌👍
I like the iv bottle on the 58 Plymouth.
It's Christine, she'll run. You need these! (hands heys to Arney)
Nothing better than sitting behind the wheel of your own car
Wasn’t it spelt Arnie? Like Arnold
Awesome to see you guys back on again! I always enjoy seeing these cars run again. Hopefully we can see the Plymouth get a little love, some magic cheese, and a little paint as well.
Cheers! Give Stella a pat on the head for me.

squidfisher99 Hey, thanks for the note, and for watching this stuff! I've got a few more of this type of thing coming up; hope you like 'em! Cheers from me and Stella!
Funny , whit the fuel bottle hangin over the fenders looks like one of those elders that walk slowly around a retirement home whit the drip on a wheeled stand.
Neat old cars. Old Chevy's and Fords have their similarities, but Chryslers are their own breed of car. I know where there are several old Chryslers just sitting in the woods, but the guy will not get rid of them. Keep up the good work preserving history! -Nick.
Delmont Industries LTD Hey, thanks; will do! Cheers from me and Stella.
Looks like that would take first prize in the Rat Rod Olympics hands-down!
Awesome!
Man I love the old cars and I absolutely love watching your videos! please keep them coming.
Hey thanks, will do! Cheers...
My favourite car! Extremely pleased to see her again.
RanchWagon Forde Haha! Glad you like the old girl; she's a real gem... I think you'll like a couple we have coming up, too...
Ah, you must be referring to the black Plym' Savoy in your latest... Another great find you guys scored. I may just have to make a pilgrimage to Canada and sneak some iron out of there with me!
Thank you, you took me all the way back to 1957 with Mom and Dad. Priceless.
Thanks for checking it out, cheers!
Checking it out ? Hell I joined your posse.
Still alive and kicking! Hopefully this one will be restored someday. Those cars are getting rarer and almost every 57-58 2dr hardtop might be worth fixing...as long as there is enough left to start with. ;)
More old starts please!
Great video. Lots of nice stuff. I really liked the the '67 Fury. My second car (not counting the one that never made it on the road) was a '68 Fury II, 2 dr hardtop, which I put many awesome miles on. Then a few years later, I turned a '68 Sport Fury (w/ '67 Fury sedan parts car and totaled '74 Road Runner 440 power train) into a very radical custom, to divert my mind from my first female induced heartbreak.
I can't believe that actually ran! Love it!
Lol love the IV drip! Brilliant. This is Christine's Auntie! Well the nice one. Love the restoration and she's alive!!!!!
I think Stella the guard poodle is the finishing touch for your videos. She puts it over the top 👍🏼
Hello from central Minnesota! My dad had one of those. He sold his 52 Studebaker Starlight Coupe ( Which his nephew promptly totaled!) and drove it until 63 when he bought A Dodge 330. The Plymouth was A V-8 coupe but ma made him buy A 4 door to accommodate his growing family. He never enjoyed A 2 door again after 63 except for A Ford P.U. he had for A short time.
Good to see all the old iron you have. Not much of that stuff survives here in the land of salt and ice!
Gary Ronan Hey, thanks for the note! Glad you liked the old Savoy; not many of them left anywhere; they rusted really badly when they were new. Take care, and cheers from Canada!
I've always been in that small faction of CWM viewers that prefers the French cars and the rest of the Euro-trash to the American iron but this is my favorite of all your cars. Can't wait to enjoy the splice!
great job crew you fired it up against all odds !!!!!
Great video of such a classic car... perhaps the nicest lines of its period. Cheers
Hey now ! ..... The steering tires should be on the back ( winter grips ? oh bald winter grips.... " Slicks then " ) .......... a treasure indeed ! ....keep 'em coming .
in the mid 60s when i was 7 or 8 there used to be so many of them in a demolition derby at the hatfield speedway on saturday night
This is one of my favorites... maybe the best first I ever saw on you tube. & I'm still hooked on Cold Wars Moters....😎 Love you guys 😁
Such a cool car, and I'm not gonna lie I really like the look it has going, steel wheels, dents and all, kind of gives it a badass look. I'm really glad you save these cars when so many others might just toss them aside
In 1959 we, my parents, had a 1957 Plymouth 2 door coupe (the pillars).
Favorite car out of your collection - can't wait to see the resto!
rtchrg440 Thanks! Me too; it'll be a real treat to actually take it out on the street! Cheers.
coldwarmotors Thanks for the upload, by far my favorite car in your lot! is this car going to be the one you restore/ or is it parts/donor?
Shane S Hi! This car will be probably used for the front clip and the frame and drivetrain, as well as the glass and interior parts. I have a better body shell when the time comes to actually build one. Thanks for checking it out!
Get 'er done!!
coldwarmotors what's the diff between a fury and a savoy?
Please don't ever get rid of that one! It has come too far from the utter disaster it was. Probably my favorite project . i do really like the Nash too! Hope to see it drive around soon!
Its fantastic that you posted an update video of my favorite car in your collection on my birthday. I just noticed that. Keep up the great videos, cant wait for more!
Love the Plymouth. I would so love to restore and drive one like that
Even thought its just a base Savoy with a 6 banger, I think it's cool and need to be saved and restored!
It's my dream to own one of these someday,...it will happen,.. I hope. Thank you for sharing the video.
+Gear Jammin Hey, thanks for checking it out; cheers from me and Stella!
That savoy is a charmer, rust dents n all. Little 230 looks like it would survive the road for awhile.
Always enjoy watching your videos! Makes me want to get my old 70 Monte Carlo mobile instead of just a garage queen! I'm always checking to see if you have new videos. Long time subscriber from Ontario! Cheers guys and Stella!
Love the vids, love all the guys, love & miss stell, frankers will definitely take up the slack. Need more stuff...fresh! Movie nights coming?
That Savoy is in better shape than most Savoy's out there.
Fantastic yard you guys have! Shame that so few young fellows today hate cars, and hate everything North American-made.
Yet another quality, family- oriented video production from Coldwarmotors. BTW, not that it means much, but the lower valance is upside down. Looking forward to more G rated productions guys. lol
Always enjoy the videos , I went to Canada and never left my garage ! . a pointy to you all . Ray in Pa.
RayinPa U.S.A. Hey man! Cheers and a pointy one back to you! Thanks for watching this nonsense.
In my books you are welcome in Canada RayinPa U.S.A.
Man I want her. Sweet hot rod
I thought a Savoy Sport Coupe would be rare, but it was the second most common after the Savoy sedan with 19,500 produced. I can't wait to see them come together.
Tyler's Neighborhood Garage.
This is by far my favourite car of yours, just the way its beat but still cool, down to the grampa grips and everything. Id love to find an old beater farm car like this and just leave it beat and daily drive it. I love the resto work you do, but man this car is perfect as it is.
Hey thanks for the note and for checking out the vid... I also love the old 58, and i would drive it the way it is if that were even slightly possible, but alas she has very little floor left, and the rest of it is no prize either! I will definitely be doing something with the car though, and I am very excited about my idea... It's not gonna be red with a white top, haha... Cheers!
Loved the classic snow treads on the front.
Poor old girl, i hope you will bring back to her former glory.
These are great! Keep it up!
58 Plymouth is my favorite forward look, although I like the '57 Desoto Adventurer as well.
+MrBreeze...'57 DeSotos had the best styling of the greatest year in history. :)
nice car! i hope you guys can give her the TLC She deserves!
Really enjoy your videos!
I had an old 65 Mercury Comet with a 3 on the tree and a ratty old six. It was kind of fun to drive, but that fricken thing must be a hog ! LOL!
Sounds awesome
When i read the first few words of the title and then saw the thumbnail pic i thought you had a Plymouth fury. Great lookin cars as always bud. :)
Love the IV bottle...
Love those bald snow tires up front for that off road action!
Casual Racist Grandpa calls em. Polish four wheel drive.
Enjoy the vids! I really enjoy the independents the most but the 1959 Chevy biscayne takes my heart. Those are hard to find in Alabama now. I only drive antique vehicles from now on because you don't have to pay for tag every year just one antique vehicle tag. I sold my jeep ha! You guys keep up the good work
+Chris talton Hey thanks for the note! Glad you like this kind of thing, too. Antique plates are the best, right? I've got 'em on everything now...
I saw that other Plymouth!!!! you have more than one!!
Love this!
aww Stella is so adorable , Gday Stella :D
scooty roddom G'day back from me and Stel! Cheers!
That old Savoy is rough for sure but its great to see you giving it some exercise. If you can get that one back on the road then I guess theres hope for my Merc.
Awesome to see some one else saving the old girls. I still need some parts for my 65 Fury II, any one have some laying around? I need a hood ornament and a set of dog dish hub caps.
I agree definitely! This is one of the best looking American cars ever. Of course I love the movie "Christine" and the Plymouth Fury! I l would like to own such a fantastic automobile...but I really don't know If I want a self repairing one. Maybe it would be nice??? ;-)
2) Where went the ballast on the trunk?
3) Yes please! Do a restoration with it. I'm hardly able to wait!
Best regards.
I liked the IV bottle for fuel delivery, I would leave the patina look and get a few things fixed to make it a daily driver or at least back and forth to the store.👍🏻
By far my favorite of your cars turned me on to you guys in the first place if i ever get my crap together i need to visit you guys and have some beers and maybe turn some wrenches only place outside of the states i want to visit lol
Someone tagged your page in our page and said we should check your videos out... I’m so glad they did. Awesome content guys! Subbed
I didn't think I would ever see a 58 Plymouth Savoy with a 3 speed on the column shift but that's unusual to see one with a straight 6 but Being a Savoy it was Chrysler's low price car in the field now if this was a fury with a golden Commando engine with a 3 speed on the column shift with overdrive this card would be priceless., I had a car like that but it was not a Savoie but it was a fury two door station wagon but it was known as Plymouth Suburban but other than that that's a beautiful car!
That poor old girl deserves to get back on the road,she dosn"t have to be pretty just safe! And i think she smoked more last time you had her goin,maby the rings are reseating...! Nice to see her back out in the play ground again..!
Robert Hardwick is that the BlaspHemi from roadkill? (profilepic)
It's on an IV!-tough old gal!
Wow, that was a really NICE car at one time...
Loved the 57 Plymouth Plaza and the 58 Plymouth Savoy and the 61 Plymouth Belvedere with the 225 Slant Six is awesome I am a Mopar fan so keep those Plymouth s running.
Oh man, I haven't seen this thing for ages. She's as beat up as I remember.
Thanks for the upload, man! If I lived near you, I'd help with some cars, but you're too far away
Cool. I have never seen a the pre-slant six that Chrysler used.
Keep restoring her she be a beautiful daily driver plus if ur gonna sell it big money car there very rare now there's a junkyard in buffalo New York filled with them they need to be saved all late 50's ply mouths 1950-63.
Chrysler must have had a heap of old flatheads to get rid of back then. Even our Holdens had OHV from 1948. We did get Chrysler Royals with flatheads however.
That is a bad ass car
That is a mint 1958 Plymouth Savoy Personnel prefer Fury or Belvedere I've Loved a fury since I saw Christine when I was a young boy beautiful and I wish I could have one that is my dream car
That poor ol Savoy!..lol.
this thing is perfect.
very beautiful belvedere!
Please more videos! :-) love them muchly
I'd love to buy that '58 Plymouth!!!
I think the 57-58 Plymouth Fury had the best and greatest fins ever !
It may be a beater, but it's still badass.
Great video, that 58 Plymouth needs some TLC..hope to se that car again w. some bodywork done, Thx to all Agents ;)
takoma5 Cheers, and thanks for checking it out... I'll get to it eventually!
bless you guys
My favorite car of yours, I hope she's still around!
Haha, oh yeah, it's still chugging around here... waiting its turn...
Yep, still sounds awesome.
Love that car
Oh that's a rare Citroen DS Wagon you got there!
I'd love to a video on that 59 dodge! One of my favorites.
