Vehicle Detail
With great reluctance, I am forced to part with my 1966 Imperial Crown Coupe. This is a dream car of mine because my grandfather owned one and I always admired the Virgil Exner design, especially the 1966. This was the first year of the 440 350 horsepower engine and the last year of the body on frame design and the iconic front end. I purchased this car from a dealer who was consigning it for the family of the original owner. It had sat for several years garaged, and was in very nice preserved original condition. They went through the normal things you would do when bringing a car out of mothballs such as going through the fluids, belts, brakes, shocks new tires, and so on. I have replaced the starter and relay, thoroughly cleaned the carb, and have done nothing but enjoy driving this car for the last 8 months and 1,000 miles. This car is truly a pleasure to drive, feels like new. Will cruise at 75 on the highway easily, and will never get confused with a Prius. The exterior is mostly original paint; I believe the roof and one of the rear quarters has been painted before, the rest original. The paint does have a few blemishes and thin spots which I have photographed. Excellent body. Very nice Chrome. The interior is in fantastic shape. Everything works, including the power seats, windows, climate control, and original radio. This car will not disappoint. I am happy to accommodate for personal inspections, and help with any kind of shipping arrangement you would need to make. $7995 is thousands less than what I have into it, and I think an excellent price of for the vehicle. If a few hundred dollars is stopping you from buying this car, please use the offer feature. Would rather keep the car than accept a lowball, sorry. Please fire away with any questions. Thanks.
