Look inside the cover of the Bulletin Magazine you will find Jim Benjaminson's email address, ask him if he has any details of your serial number on his database, he is the Membership Secretary & Treasurer, he keeps all the records and possibly knows more about the brand than anyone else. When I first got my 33PD I was missing the serial number, Jim had my car on his system and from the info he gave me I was able to track it's history back to the day it hit the track in Detroit to South Africa and now in England. Take a look at my website it's all there.

Thank you responding Tom.

Yes, I am a paying, card carrying member, to Plymouth Owners Club.

I got a tip on a different site. They were in Clifton, AZ.

Hi ccudahy I can't answer your questions direct but may be able to point you to someone that may be able to help. A few months ago I was looking for the same model that you have, a 47 Club Coupe, is it a marine blue by any chance. Are you or your dad a dues paying of the Plymouth Owners Club , that might make your search much easier.

Hello Plymouth Fans!

This is my first post here I have been a member for about 17 months.  First, let me introduce myself I have been a Plymouth/MoPar fan my whole life and live in Wisconsin. First car was a '64 Dodge 330. My dad still owns a '76 Duster, he has owned since new. So, I bought a 1947 Plymouth Special Deluxe (P15C) Club Coupe in August '20. The gentleman I purchased it from didn't remember much of the history of the car or when he got it. I learned that a MoPar owner could send info into Chrysler (can't bring myself to say Stellantis) and get a copy of the build card. I did that in October '20. I finally got my card emailed to me yesterday. I was curious is the dealership that ordered the car was still in business. I came up with nothing. So started doing more research.

This is what I know. On the build card its says it was assembled in LA and Frisco Motor Sales for the dealer and Miami Arizona for destination. There was no Frisco Motor Sales in Miami, AZ. I searched the 1946-1950 Globe-Miami Directories. There was a T&M Garage in Miami that was a Plymouth dealer. I found a Frisco dealership in Texas. Tried talking to them about their history all they want is to sell me a new car.

What I would like to know is, does anyone remember, heard, or know of a Frisco Motor Sales and where was it located? Thanks for any help!
