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. 1.jpg141.09 KB

This sale is subject to the Terms and Conditions of Car & Classic. By submitting an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓The seller of this vehicle is registered as a professional seller. And you are protected by the Terms and Conditions of Car & Classic.
✓If you are the lucky winner of an auction or if your bid is accepted, we will ask you to pay a non-refundable commission fee. Please refer to our FAQ and Terms & Conditions for specific fees.
✓This vehicle is 'Sold AsSeen', on an 'as is and where is' basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and it is good practice to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle before purchase for added peace of mind and security.
✓VAT is included in the buyer's deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final offer or asking price, as specified in the ad.
✓Just like you, we want transactions to be as straightforward and transparent as possible, which is why we subject all UK vehicles for sale on Car & Classic to an HPI check to ensure that they are not listed on insurance databases as damaged or stolen and that they are free of any financial liens, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓We also check whether vehicles have been declared withdrawn from circulation and compensated as irreparably damaged when an ad is published on Car & Classic, and where necessary we indicate the category of damage reported (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of such indications is no guarantee of the condition of the vehicle and it is always preferable to carry out a full vehicle history check yourself before submitting an offer.
✓Buyers are responsible for collecting or delivering the vehicle. Additional customs duties and import taxes may apply when importing vehicles, so it is advisable to check beforehand. If required, we can direct you to a third-party shipping company that can help. For more details, or to communicate with our team, please email [email protected].
If an auction vehicle doesn't sell, it may be converted into a “Make an offer” listing. This will retain all of the details of the auction listing but replace the bidding functionality with an offering system whereby potential buyers can make an offer on the vehicle. To take the hassle out of the whole process and to prevent any unnecessary squabbling we'll automatically decline anything less than 70% of the asking price so only offers that are worth considering will be accepted. Make an offer listings include a “Make an offer” button. Simply click on this and enter the amount you’d like to offer and the seller will either accept, decline or counter. Easy peasy. If you don’t have a Car & Classic account with a registered bank card you’ll be prompted to set one up at this point.
If your offer is accepted, you’ll be charged a service fee. The amount depends on the cost of the vehicle and is an additional cost on top of the offer amount. Starting from as little as £/€300, it covers the cost of our various auction and escrow services, but rest assured, we're not in the woollen eyewear business and so the exact amount is always displayed upfront before you place your bid. You will only be charged if your offer is accepted.
The service fee is a charge in addition to any accepted offer amount that varies depending on the cost of the vehicle. Starting from as little as £/€300, the exact fee is clearly displayed upfront before any offer is placed so you always know exactly how much you'll be charged. It covers the cost of our various auction and escrow services and allows us to continue to provide a secure and professional platform from which to transact safely.
If you've ever squeezed a lemon then this'll be a doddle. Firstly you'll need to be logged in to your Car & Classic account and have added a valid payment card to your profile. Once these steps have been completed you can then make an offer by clicking on the "Make an offer" button on the listing page and entering your offer amount before clicking on the “Submit Offer” button underneath.
