Was this the first four-door coupe? In those days, this was known as the "fastback body style," something a little sleeker than the bustle-back sedans with their visible trunks from that era. This Roadking 4-door touring sedan sold for $740. Another 1940 landmark: Plymouth started making coupes and convertibles without rumble seats.
