For Sale: 1951 Chrysler Imperial in Farmingdale, New York

1951 Chrysler Imperial Convertible for sale! Motorcar Classics is proud to present this rare 1951 Chrysler Imperial convertible featured in Crown Maroon with Maroon leather interior and Tan cloth convertible top and matching Tan boot cover. In 1951, Chrysler only built 650 Imperial Convertibles, marking this example as exceedingly rare. Few Imperials survive today, particularly from the early 1950s, let alone Convertibles in this condition. This handsome car is powered by Chryslers 331 CI/180 HP Hemi V-8 engine with Chryslers unique Fluid Drive transmission. The interior is equipped with a split front-bench seat, push button radio, an in-dash clock, a heater and a defroster. Outside, the car is well-appointed with bumper guards, fender skirts, sparkling chrome wire wheels and elegant wide whitewall tires. Other amenities include power steering, power top, and power brakes. It is a very rare car and indeed, Chrysler took great strides to ensure Imperial offered customers an unusual alternative to its luxury-car competition. Chrysler was renowned for its forward-thinking engineering designs and superior build quality, which offered customers advanced chassis designs, more powerful engines and a robustness on par with tanks in many cases. Indeed, Chrysler offered a lot for the money and its flagship Imperial line was no different. Our Imperial is an older restoration which still has a commanding presence on the road. It is a delightful driver with a light patina indicative of being regularly used with pride.
