Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is proud to present this 1949
Chrysler Windsor. The Chrysler Windsor is a full-size car which was
built by Chrysler from 1939 through to the 1960s. The final
Chrysler Windsor sold in the United States was produced in 1961,
but production in Canada continued until 1966. The Canadian 1961 to
1966 Windsor model was for all intents and purposes the equivalent
of the Chrysler Newport in the United States. The Windsor was
almost identical to the more luxurious Chrysler New Yorker in terms
of size, interior and standard features except that it was only
available with the Chrysler Inline Six that originally started the
company in 1925, which offered customers a luxurious car with a
more modest and economic engine. As the years progressed and
technology and manufacturing costs improved, the Windsor offered
items that were initially optional as standard equipment while
maintaining a market position lower in the Chrysler product
hierarchy. In 1949, for Chrysler's 25th anniversary, Windsors were
updated and shared a corporate appearance with the reintroduced
Chrysler Imperial as the top luxury car for Chrysler in 1950.
Powering this Windsor is a 250.6 Cubic Inch Inline 6 backed by a
3-Speed Fluid Drive Transmission. Fluid Drive is the trademarked
name that Chrysler Corporation assigned to a transmission driveline
combination which replaced the flywheel with a hydraulic coupling
and performed the same function as a modern torque converter, only
without torque multiplication. A conventional clutch and three- or
four-speed manual transmission was installed behind the fluid
coupling. Fluid drive was used in many military vehicles produced
for the US Armed Forces during the Second World War. It was offered
for civilian use from 1939 through 1953 in ChryslersOptions on this
1949 Chrysler Windsor include: Bias-Ply Tires, Cloth Interior, Hub
Caps, and Wide White Wall Tires.
