Collectible Motor Car of Atlanta is pleased to offer this extremely-rare, elegant 1939 Chrysler Imperial. The Chrysler Imperial has a lineage of executive cars, being used for Presidential transportation, New York World's Fair, Diplomat and World Leader use. This Imperial lived a long, pampered life in Tennessee and now Georgia. The Chrysler is finished in Dark Blue over Blue Mohair with Cream Piping interior. Chrysler used seat cushions with individually wrapped springs; the padding was seamed like a mattress to retain its shape. There is carpet in the rear to accommodate luxury for the passenger along with rubber flooring in the front. There is no transmission "hump" due to the hypoid rear axle. The wide rear doors revealed large, comfortable chair-height sofa-seats, again designed for luxury and support.
This Imperial has the straight-eight, L-head engine producing 110 horsepower backed by the column-shift 3-speed manual transmission. The "Gold Seal" name was used for the high-compression eight-cylinder engines in the Imperial. A major reason for the stretched wheelbase in the Imperial was making room for those straight-eight engines. To reduce vibration, the engine was mounted on patented floating power mountings, located high in front and low at the rear so that the weight of the engine was in perfect balance. As a result, vibration was absorbed before it can reach the frame and body. The Chrysler has an older restoration that still shows very well with normal age and wear flaws, and runs/ drives rather well. The Imperial has the optional steel windshield visor and dual-mount spare tires. Between 1937-1939, only about 10,536 Chrysler's were built split between the Chrysler Newport, Saratoga and Imperial. some estimate that less than 2600 were 1939 Imperials and only about estimate of 200 had Dual Side Mount option. Do your research and discover how rare this car really is. Own a piece of history. These rare Chryslers aren't available for sale very often so don't delay, call today!

Gateway Classic Cars Dallas is showcasing a 1955 Imperial Newport!
The Chrysler Imperial, introduced in 1926, was Chrysler's top-of-the-line vehicle for much of its history. Models were produced with the Chrysler name until 1954, and again from 1990 to 1993. The company positioned the cars as a prestige marque to rival Cadillac, Continental, Lincoln, Duesenberg, Pierce-Arrow, Cord, and Packard. The adjective 'Imperial' according to Webster's Dictionary means sovereign, supreme, superior or of unusual size or excellence. The word Imperial thus justly befits Chrysler's highest-priced model.
Exterior
With the exterior bathed in green and white, and overall still holds its shine. Chrome and trim are very good with little to no corroding or dimpling, and overall shiny. This holds true for the bumper's bezels, and rear high mounted taillights. Badging is slightly worn in the color areas, and bumper on the rear shows some corrosion and staining at the point where the exhaust comes through it. Big steel panels, and a wide trim spear with a rear quarter swoop is noted on both sides in good condition. 15-inch chrome wire wheels with faux spinners in the centers are mounted within wide whites all around.
Interior
A swing of the massive doors and we are swimming in a sea of tuck and roll, piping, and smooth white leather. The front split-bench is mounted in a large metal base that provides power back and forth for the driver. If the rear bench was not in this car it would be in my living room serving as my coach, it is that plush, and it has a pullout area rest. I also need to mention the door panels with their white uppers in wide vertical embossed stripes, and the lowers are a deep green with a metal thread pattern that drips 1955. Seen also are power window toggles within the door pull. Keeping in tune with the motif, the dash is a two-tone green and white, drivers' side in green with an instrument cluster of 2 circles. The bezels show slight corrosion but are indeed original. The dash is beautifully sculpted in a curved form and has a large radio speaker, a clock and Imperial in your grandmother's handwriting badge. A white headliner above nice and tight and deep green carpet below, and we are in 1955 luxury.
Drivetrain
A raise of the hood and we are greeted with the original 331ci Hemi engine topped with a 4-barrel carburetor. On the back is a 2-speed automatic Powerflite transmission which throws power back to 3.54 rear gears.
Drive-Ability
Just sitting inside this car we are in the lap of luxury and comfort. It started right up, idled smoothly, and took off with lots of Hemi 4-barrel power. It's a cruiser and provides a smooth ride. [ omitted ]. Please contact us anytime for more information or come to see the vehicle in person..
