For Sale: 1983 Chrysler Imperial in Concord, North Carolina

STK 3786 1983 Chrysler Imperial

The Chrysler Imperial was introduced in 1926 and was considered to be Chrysler's top-of-the-line model for decades. The company positioned the Imperial as a prestige symbol to rival Cadillac and Lincoln - supreme and superior to all others. After many generations the Imperial marque was moth-balled at the end of the 1975 model year, but then resurrected in '81 as a two-door coupe based on the Cordoba platform. This 1983 Imperial is virtually original and is in outstanding condition. The factory exterior finish has been refreshed with an outstanding 2-stage respray of Day Star Blue. It is accented by steel wheels with distinctive optional wire-wheel covers that mount Nexen w/w radials. Inside, the luxurious original blue leather/vinyl upholstery shows very little wear. Convenience features include A/C (needs TLC), power tinted windows, tilt wheel, power seats, power trunk, cruise control 'burlwood' dash accents and an AM/FM/Cassette sound system. Horsepower is furnished by a Chrysler 318ci 'LA' powerplant. The factory fuel injection package has been replaced with a 'Sniper' EFI throttle-body unit mounted on an Edelbrock aluminum intake. Cooling is managed by an aluminum radiator and torque is delivered through a three-speed automatic overdrive gearbox to a rear drive differential. The chassis is equipped with power steering, power disc/drum brakes, front/rear stabilizer bars and new exhaust. This stylish, rare Imperial coupe should sell quickly. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
