Vehicle Description
"The Queens Car" having been used for the Canadian Royal Tour of
Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh,
this 1951 Chrysler New Yorker convertible is an all-original
example from new. The car is equipped with a 331ci, "FirePower" V8
engine and 3-speed Fluid-Drive transmission. After being used for
the Canadian Royal Tour, the car was returned to Chrysler where it
was sent to Melfort, Saskatchewan to be displayed at a new Chrysler
dealership and was purchased there by its first owner. In 1961, the
car was purchased from the estate of the first owner and remained
with the second owner for 29 years. After exchanging hands a few
more times, the car has resided in the same collection for the past
12 years where it receives regular exercise and routine
maintenance. The car boasts all available options for 1951
including new for '51 Hydra-Glide power steering. Accompanied by
extensive documentation and photos.
