sidewall tires!One of very few such remaining examples in such
wonderful daily driving shape and with extremely rare add factory
options including PS, PB, PW, P. Seats amp; factory air
conditioning which alone cost $570 in 1955 and which is
consequently extraordinarily rare!This particular car has obviously
been owned since new by only very careful and mature owners and it
is a car which has seemingly always been garaged as it is both a
rust and accident free true survivor which drives as good as it
looks, a truly remarkable daily driving car!The car boasts an also
very rare two-tone 'Heron Blue over White' color paint with a
beautiful contrasting Blue amp; Gray pattern cloth trim. The 301 2
barrel V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds
absolutely magnificent and this particular car drives absolutely
magnificently - must be driven to be believed - does not miss a
beat and purrs like a kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no
strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily
driver that will give any modern day car a run for it's money! The
PowerFlite transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the
car is an absolute pleasure to drive! The car has obviously always
been well maintained and the car boasts its original spare wheel
and jack in the truck!Chrysler was to complete a completely new
from front to rear and inside and out model line-up beginning with
the 1955 models and what a terrific line up it was, bearing little
in common with the old 'stodgy looking' Chrysler of previous years,
except for the Hemi engine! Chrysler now had 5 divisions with a
line up of cars to match GM in every market level with the Imperial
as it's top-of-the-line model directly aimed at Cadillac and
Lincoln. Styled by Virgil Exner and his team, Chrysler had now
positioned itself at the forefront of the industry.The new look
began with an all new big split eggcrate grille set below lowered
front fenders and hood lines and boasting heavy chrome. Wraparound
'Super Scenic' windshields were also a first for Chrysler and
bodysides were smooth with few feature lines except for the
two-tone trim and the tall chrome encased 'Twin Tower' tailights.
Interiors sported new colors and materials and were highlighted by
an all new instrument panel design with the placement of the
transmission selector, dubbed the 'Finger tip' PowerFlite range
selector, being located on the instrument panel rather than in the
standard steering column position. This would prove to be a one
year only design for Chrysler and is now another of the car's very
unique and striking features. Power was supplied by Chrysler's all
new 301 V8 for the Windsor DeLuxe line, essentially a smaller bore
version of the 331 V8.With very few remaining models of this
caliber left, this is an extremely unusual opportunity to own a
great daily driving example of this first year and rare and very
desirable and collectible 1955 ChryslerWindsor DeLuxe 4 Door Sedan
in very fine daily driving condition for any classic American car
or Mopar enthusiast to enjoy or collect today!
