Vehicle Description
1957 Chrysler Dual-Ghia
Presented is a beautiful 1957 Dual Ghia in striking black exterior
and contrasting burgundy leather interior. The Black Haartz cloth
top and Kelsey Hayes style wire wheels compliment the car's
presentation. It is powered by a 315 cubic inch V8 260 horsepower
engine with an automatic transmission. This particular Dual Ghia is
believed to be number 143, being the 43rd produced. A truly rare
and beautiful example of an Italian American exotic car of its
time.
Designed in the Italian studio of Carrozzeria Ghia, it made its
first public appearance at the Turin Auto Show as a Chrysler
Corporation dream car known as the Fire arrow. The car, following
the Turin show, was then shipped to the United States where its
engineless design exercise was shown throughout the major auto
shows throughout the country. Total production from 1955 through
1958 was 117 cars of which 13 were prototypes and the remaining 104
built during the production process.
