Chrysler Imperial 413 CID V8 1962

General description : For Sale in our Detroit Showroom is a stunning 1962 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron unlike any other you will ever come across. This specific Imperial is a 1962 Pre-Production vehicle that spent its whole life being pampered by a long time Chrysler employee. This specific Imperial was used for Auto Show reveals and even Chrysler commercials in the early 1960's. In 1955, Chrysler made an attempt to completely separate the Imperial nameplate in hopes of competing with large American luxury companies such as Cadillac and Lincoln. Although this attempt failed, it does not take away from the amazing design and craftsmanship on this Imperial. With under 17,000 original miles, this Imperial is easily capable of walking away with multiple awards at any car show. Equipped with a 413CID V8, This Imperial has more than enough power to move around. The monstrous motor is matted to a 3-Speed Automatic Push Button Transmission. This 1962 Imperial is definitely a collector's item especially considering it is a pre-production, one of one example that you will never come across again. This Imperial is still dressed in its original Tuxedo Black paint which shows very minimal signs of age and wear. The Tuxedo Black paint does an amazing job at making all the chrome accents on this car really pop. The interior is dressed in Dark Grey and resembles that of a 5 star hotel. The plush vinyl upholstery is nearly new. One of the most striking features is the squared steering wheel which is very unique to this specific generation of Imperials. This flagship sedan is equipped with many features you would not expect from a early 1960's sedan. It is loaded with a full power interior including Power Windows, Power Seats and even Cruise Control which is referred to as "Auto Pilot". This pre-production Imperial is also equipped with a rear air-ride suspension and a rear A/C which is a completely separate unit that powers the A/C up front. You will be hard pressed to find any flaws with this timeless classic. It rests comfortably on wide white-wall radials with Imperial engraved chrome hub-caps. If you are looking for a super-rare, post WW2 flagship sedan that is ready for any occasion then look no further.

About Chrysler
The Chrysler Corporation, one of the "big three" was founded by Walter Chrysler in 1925

Apart from artdeco(isque), airflow and airstream models, Chrysler's early years may lack lustre in design terms but not in technical. Their list of early automotive "firsts" includes Floating Power i.e. Rubber engine mounts, replaceable oil filters, downdraft carburetor, and four-wheel hydraulic brakes.

Things were to change after the war, Exner revived Chrysler production car design with the sleek, sculptured Forward Look designs of 1955 that transformed the product line overnight. The flagship in 1955, Chrysler 300, came with HEMI power. The 300, arguably the first muscle car, became a legend on and off the race track and set records throughout the 1950s, The Legend of Hemi was born.
