The longer, more graceful lines of the 1954
Plymouth Belvedere hard top shown above are
accentuated by the increased use of new chrome
trim throughout the entire length of the car. Fresh
styling is also evident in the extended chrome
headlights and the redesigned, brighter grille. The
centre bar of the grille sweeps out and along the
side of the car cutting through a perpendicular
stone shield. Interior trim and upholstery makes
full use of the latest vinyl materials and nylon
and rayon fabrics to achieve complete colour and
design harmony with, the car’s exterior. Plymouths
for 1954 are available in three series: the practical
Plaza, the distinctive Savoy and the style leader
Belvedere.
