For Sale: 1948 Chrysler Windsor in Torrance, California
West Coast Classics are proud to present this absolutely
exceptional and stunning example of this completely rust and
accident free amp; fully frame off restored by a renown marque
expert 1948 Chrysler Windsor 2 Door 3 Passenger Business Coupe with
it's reliable and virtually bullet-proof Chrysler in line Flathead
250 L Head six cylinder engine with a manual semi automatic 3 speed
'Fluid Drive' transmission!The Chrysler Windsor with the semi
automatic Fluid Drive transmission delivered modern style
performance in the form of a large and heavy 3 passenger coupe and
this is a now very rare and desirable and collectible example of
one of America's premier early post war cars. Chrysler's Windsor
model was available as either a sedan, convertible, club coupe or
business coupe configurations. Of the body-styles available the 3
passenger business coupe is widely considered by enthusiasts the
most desirable, built with an eye towards style instead of
practicality, the model featured just a single row of seating. The
small passenger compartment allowed for one of the most attractive
and distinguished roof-lines of any car of it's day and proved to
be a significant influence in the coming decades era of larger and
even more imposingly styled cars.This particular car has been
beautifully restored and finished in it's original striking 'Meadow
Green' factory color with a matching original 'Dark Green'
broadcloth wool interior. Factory options included; 'Comfort Master
Heater', 8 tube radio, directional signals, electric clock,
windshield wipers, luggage compartment light, 'Safe Guard'
hydraulic brakes, small hubcaps, etc. The car looks absolutely
stunning and was professionally restored with no expense spared by
it's owner, noted marque expert Jim Barbee, before being purchased
by his friend Blake Nordstrom, for his renown private
collection.The original spare wheel is in it's rightful storage
place in the trunk. The 250 6 cylinder engine is extremely strong
and powerful and this particular car drives magnificently - must be
driven to be fully appreciated - drives straight as an arrow with
no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles. The car will be sold
with a file including it's original owners manuals and receipts
from 1949! This is a rare opportunity to own an absolutely
beautifully restored with superb attention to detail by a noted
marque expert and a great daily driving example of an obviously
never abused (and oozing pride of ownership since it's remarkable
restoration) 1948 Chrysler Windsor 2 Door 3 Passenger Business
Coupe in simply stunning amp; unrivaled condition throughout! We
doubt that few finer examples could possibly exist.
