If you have ever dreamed of owning a very large classic American car with some of the biggest known fins on cars of that era then look no more.<br />
I know all you know all"s will send messages to say a 1959 Cadillac had bigger fins. Yes I know it has as I own one of those as well.<br />
This Chrysler is very clean except for a small amount of flaking to the back panel which is being attended to as we speak.<br />
The boot lid was incorrectly fitted and was vibrating causing metal to rub metal.<br />
It has now been re-aligned and is having a new boot seal fitted. <br />
The bodywork other than that has had a repaint and is not the best in the world, but I am having it professionally polished to get rid of some of the orange peel.<br />
The pictures included are before the polishing and at 10ft (3 metres) look good.<br />
Please bear in mind this car is 55 years old.<br />
The brightwork in general is excellent.<br />
The engine purrs better than any other V8 (413ci)I have ever driven and I have personally owned over 60 American classic cars and at present own 8.<br />
The transmission is the famous "Push button system" which give what is know as the "Juke Box dash"<br />
The original radio (push button) is in working order as is the heater (push button).<br />
The only thing I can fault it on is the sender unit for the water temp is not working, but I will supply and fit one before the car leaves.<br />
The steel wheels are the original ones as are the hub caps complete with a dummy spare wheel well in the boot / trunk lid.<br />
The recorded mileage is 66,500---- and by the way it drives I have no reason to think different.<br />
The car is registered in the UK and has a current MOT until Feb 2017.<br />
The interior is tan coloured and in good condition with small faults given the age. <br />
The windows are all power and fully working.<br />
This car was recently driven from Bicester to the Classic Car museum near Southampton and also to my home in south Wales.<br />
There is no sign of any water loss, nor smoke even if the car is left for several days. <br />
The price is negotiable but no silly offers will be answered and only American cars will be considered.<br />
I will part exchange Fifties, Sixties or possibly even Seventies cars in a deal either up or down.<br />
I am asking 15,950 ONO<br />
If you need to ask the MPG then please go and buy a Trabant or why!!.<br />
