Vehicle Description

1988 Archer Convertible

If you want luxury you found it. When a wealthy businessman needed to cruise around town he didn't hop in his Mustang or 55 Chevy. He got into something that looked much more like an Excalibur, Gatsby, Spartan, or Archer. Haven't heard of these manufacturers? Well that's just a testament to how rare they really are! Even your classic car guru buddies will have a tough time picturing an Archer if you tell them about it. That's why you need to see this car to believe it! The long sloping fenders, ribbed side exhaust, spoked fender mounted wheels, and front chrome horns are just a few of the features that make this car what it is. They are known as neo-classics and inspired by Duesenbergs and the high end luxury cars of the past. If you thought Cobra and 32 kit cars were a new thing say hello to where they came from. People love customs so even in the 70's and 80's unique kits were being manufactured. Archer Coachworks decided they wanted to honor the vintage design which was built over a Lincoln Continental chassis. What they came up with went on to win awards and 1st place trophies for design. This classic 1988 Archer Cabriolet provides the look of a Duesenberg without that million dollar price tag. It is coated in White pearl and has a great shine. The front and rear bumpers have an awesome shine along with all the other chrome you find on this classic. The spare wheels have Burgundy cloth covers which match the top perfectly and are in great condition. Other unique features include the chrome front mounted fog lights and the rear luggage tray. It sits on spoke rims and all 6 wide white wall radial tires are brand new.

The engine of this car is a rebuilt Jasper 350 V8 that packs plenty of power. It is naturally aspirated and features multiple new components including the alternator, AC compressor, MSD ignition system, Aluminum radiator, aluminum overflow tank, finned valve covers, finned air cleaner and new exhaust. The drivetrain also features all new wiring throughout. The engine is finished off very cleanly and on the firewall and inner fenders are polished metal pieces that make for a great appearance. The automatic 350 transmission shifts very nicely and in perfect timing. The transmission support has been recently replaced. This car truly is a joy to drive and gets tons of attention. The motor isn't the only thing to have received new components because the car was completely gone through. It has new front springs and shocks, new coil overs, new 28 gallon tank, rebuilt brakes, and rebuilt steering.

The interior on this car is beautifully done and quoting the original brochure "wraps you in impeccable European styling." It is extremely comfortable and offers plenty room. The rear seat also allows plenty of space so load up the family and go for a drive. The Burgundy cloth is in great condition and shows virtually no wear and tear. The woodgrain dash matches the woodgrain steering wheel and add the perfect touch of class to the inside. A new stereo system is in place and has a great sound. The air conditioning system blows cold and power windows work properly with new regulators. It has all new white face gauges with a satellite speedometer.

This car is very unique and very rare. It wasn't everyday you saw cars like this driving around and it is even rarer today. People will be lining up to get a look at it and take pictures. Don't miss your chance to own possibly one of the most unique vehicles you will ever add to your collection!
