Together with the more luxurious equipped model PD (Deluxe) it replaced the New Finer Plymouth of the previous year with only 4 cylinders. It was developed from the Dodge model DP, on whose chassis with longer 2844 mm wheelbase.
In addition to a 4-door sedan and various 2-door models were available. There was also a chassis with no bodywork for customers who wanted to get a "custom" bodywork construction.
