PRICE REDUCTION!! This 1947 Chrysler Town and Country Convertible
is part of the collection of a good friend and client of ours. He
is known for meticulously maintaining and caring for his vehicles
and he enjoys driving them regularly. This Town and Country has
been his vehicle of choice for cruising around the community near
his beach home in the Pacific Northwest. The gorgeous color
combination, beautiful interior and easy drivability make this
Classic Car Club of America Full Classic Town and Country a perfect
choice to be enjoyed on CARavans, tours and in shows. This Chrysler
was acquired new in San Diego, CA and is believed to have spent
most of its life in Hawaii. The current owner, Bradley Huson, of
Ruston, WA acquired the Town and Country in 2009 from Tom Crook
Classic Cars in Seattle, WA. Mr. Huson has enjoyed and maintained
the Chrysler over the past 14 years and has restored portions of
the car only as needed. Mr. Huson drives his Town and Country
regularly and it has become well known in his beach community in
the Pacific Northwest. The livery of this Town and Country is a
gorgeous Polo Green (Code #5) with beautiful luster and shine with
just a few minor imperfections that are only noticeable upon close
inspection. The Polo Green is a beautiful complement to the
coach-built wood body framed in White Ash with insert panels of
Honduran Mahogany. All the detailed woodwork shows well overall and
is in very nice structural condition. The Mahogany inserts have not
been restored and are showing some patina. Nearly all the hardware
has been re-chromed and shows beautifully apart from the door
handles and a few small pieces. The gorgeous dark green powered
Haartz canvas convertible top shows very well inside and out and
operates beautifully and fits snuggly. The matching dark green
canvas top boot is in beautiful condition and snaps in place
nicely. The chrome wheel covers show very well, and the wheels are
wrapped in period correct Firestone Deluxe Champion wide white wall
tires. The interior upholstery is complete in beautiful green
leather with tan pleated Bedford cord inserts. The upholstery and
matching door panels show beautifully overall. The dash is finished
in Polo Green which is a nice complement to the beautiful chrome
gauge cluster, radio, and controls. The gauges all appear to be
functioning properly. The dash shows some minor imperfections in
high wear areas only and shows well overall. The carpet is a
beautiful dark green wool with dark green leather binding, all
matching the dark green canvas top and top boot. The carpet shows
well overall and is in very nice condition due to the continued use
of tan, woven floor mats. The three-spoke Polo Green steering wheel
and chrome horn assembly, which is emblazoned with Fluid Drive are
in nice condition and feels good in your hands. The trunk area is
beautifully detailed and comes complete with a matching wide
whitewall spare. The interior is in very nice overall condition and
shows beautifully. The Town and Country engine compartment has been
well detailed and painted and is home to the 323 ci L-Head
Straight-Eight Cylinder engine which produces 135 hp and runs
strong and quietly. The Straight-Eight is mated to the Presto-Matic
4-Speed Fluid Drive Semi-Automatic transmission which shifts
smoothly and operates quietly. The chassis has been cleaned and
painted and looks terrific. This Chrysler Town and Country is as
much a joy to drive as it is to look at. It is ready to be enjoyed
on local tours and shows and would be a great addition to any
enthusiasts collection. We have this Town and Country priced very
well. The Hagerty No. 2 value is $90,100 and the No. 3 value is
$60,500, with values increasing about 10ver the last year. This is
definitely a No. 2-. This Chrysler comes complete with its shop
