For Sale: 1962 Chrysler Imperial in Mesa, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This 1962 Imperial Crown Convertible is one of fewer than 560 units produced that year, making it a true rarity. The cream white exterior paint adorns the massive body, showcasing Virgil Exner's iconic "Forward Look" design. Front grille and bumpers display immaculate brightwork, emphasizing the car's imposing presence. A tan power-operated convertible top crowns this luxury cruiser. Fifteen-inch steel wheels with hubcaps and 235/75R15 tires (1997 date codes) complete the exterior package, grounding this Imperial with a solid stance.

Brown vinyl bench seats with contrasting pleated centers dominate the interior, exemplifying 1960s luxury. Split front row backs allow easy rear seat access. Metallic dash elements have aged well, complemented by clear, readable gauges. The factory-style push-button transmission selector adds a unique touch to the driving experience. Sun visors and the convertible top's interior lining maintain the car's upscale atmosphere. Brown carpeting lines the floor, extending to the lower door panels. The steering wheel appears to be either original or a well-crafted reproduction.

A Chrysler 413 V8 engine with a single 4-barrel carburetor powers this Imperial. The engine bay houses a mix of original components and updated hoses and wiring. A 3-speed automatic transmission channels power to the 8 3/4 rear end. Power steering and power drum brakes on all four corners enhance drivability. The suspension setup includes an independent front end and a solid axle rear with leaf springs. Dual exhaust with stock-style manifolds and aftermarket mufflers provides a fitting soundtrack for this luxury cruiser.
