Vehicle Detail

DescriptionYou are bidding on a clean, rare and highly collectible 1968 Chrysler Imperial convertible. This really is a super rare Mopar – Chrysler only produced 474 Imperial convertibles in 1968. Also 1968 was the last year Chrysler would ever manufacture an Imperial convertible. This car is a nice unrestored original example of a full size mid-sixties upscale luxury classic convertible. A super cruising car powered by the legendary Chrysler 440 4 barrel V8. Vehicle Features· Factory Original 1968 Imperial Convertible · Recent replacement convertible top is in great condition (no cracks, sun fading, etc.)· Power Windows, and Door Locks· Tilt Steering Wheel · Power Driver’s seat option · Power Antenna · Factory AM/FM radio · Factory Air Conditioning · Original 1968 Imperial Wheelcovers · All factory original body panels · Underside and frame straight and exceptionally clean (No previous accident history) · All original chrome molding trim is still on the car · All lights work · Original Color Code was “WW” (White) · Interior Color “” Medium/Dark Green · Convertible top hydraulics are in great shape. Top goes up and down fast and smooth no with problems · Convertible top “latches” are in great shape This Imperial is a very solid original car. The mileage number showing on the odometer is 46,369. Based on the condition this number appears correct however due to the age of the car, I have no way to absolutely verify the mileage. I looked for a long time for an Imperial convertible and I purchased this car because it was original running and driving car, complete, with virtually no rust. This is a very cool car to drive – a real head turner. There are very few clean unmolested examples of 1968 Imperial convertible coupes remaining. A great investment you can also drive and enjoy. This car would also be an easy restoration and worth big bucks when complete. NADA Old Car Price Guide values 1968 Imperial convertibles between $12,000 - $36,000.Additional pictures are available at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/98049259@N07/ Items needing attention This is a 45 year old unrestored car. The car could use a good professional paint job. The current paint looks acceptable from a distance but has several imperfections (i.e. runs, nicks, minor fading). This car would look fantastic with fresh paint. The rear bumper is in need of re-plating. The Factory AC system was disconnected when I bought the car. The parts go with the car but compressor and pluming parts need to be re-mounted on the engine and the system re-charged. The brakes should be looked over by a professional mechanic. There is a minor fluid leak in one of the front calipers. The dash pad is cracked. The rear glass window needs to be installed.
