Vehicle Detail
Up for auction is the rarest car I have ever owned, and I've owned quite a few. Only 205 of them made,this could your only chance ever to own 1 It is a 1952 chrysler imperial crown edition. This car had it all back in the day, and if you were driving it you were somebody! It was equipped with a 331 Hemi with a fluid drive transmission. The car runs and drives like an absolute dream. I was personally amazed when I drove it for the 1st time. If you really want to know how luxurious this car was, let me give you an example: This cars msrp was $4627. In 1953 the 1st corvettes came out with an msrp of $3498. over $1000 difference and that was an insane amount of money back then. Car has factory jack in the trunk along with a few spare parts (extra taillights in excellent condition, 2 new mirrors, 1 taillight lens, pieces that go on valve covers to cover spark plugs, few extra belts, spare 2 bbl carb that I believe is factory). Motor has been rebuilt because when I was going through the trunk all of the old parts were in there including valves, valve springs, timing chain and gears and pistons. All glass is good except for the pass side front it has a crack. Doors all function properly and so do door and quarter glass. Factory power steering. Gauges all work properly. I drove it down the road with no problems. Car has very minor exterior rust, and little rust in the floorboards but that's it. Trunk is in exceptional condition. Headlights, Taillights work, dash lights. This is a 2-owner car, first owner bought it and then the man I bought it from was his nephew and he has had it since '87. There are crowns all over this car, wheels, hood, decklid, gauge cluster, has the factory crown key. The pictures dont do it justice. Clean Mo title in hand. Does need brakes. May consider trades. If you have any questions feel free to email me of give me a call at 573-776-5405. Thanks for looking, Morgan By the way, Elvis drove one...
