1954 Plymouth Belmonth Briggs Body Concept Car

A Chrysler Corporation dream or concept car for the Plymouth Division, the Belmont was highly publicized and well received by the public at the various major automobile shows where it was displayed. Styled by Briggs and built in the United States, the major theme stressed by the company was that the Belmont was a practical car in every sense combined with sweeping beauty. The fiberglas roadster body was mounted on the standard Plymouth chassis that had been proven by billions of miles of owner use creating an unmatchable combination. Unfortunately, the car was never put into production, this car being the only one built.
