1948 Dodge Custom Coupe 230CI I6

Highlights

  • Delivered new in the EU
  • Now comes with Colombian registration and European import documentation
  • All duties and VAT have been paid in full
  • Reportedly matching numbers

The Appeal

Dodge nomneclature was most confusing during the '30s and '40s as it would change the names of its models constantly to meet ever-changing marketing objectives. Somewhat misleadingly, the "DeLuxe" was the lowest trim level of its full-size car while the "Custom" was the top of the tree. We have a fine example of the latter here, a 1948 Dodge Custom Coupé. 

We're informed that it was originally supplied to Europe, later making its way to Columbia and now back on the Continent.

It therefore comes with Colombian registration and European import documentation, with all duties and VAT fully paid, making it easier for European buyers to register.
