1959 Chrysler Imperial Custom. NO RESERVE!!!!!!! 69k miles and will go up. This car is HIGHLY optioned with silvercrest top and flite sweep deck. Power windows, seat, locks, cruise, air, swivel out front seats, and more. Car has had new: gas tank, carburetor (Edelbrock), valve job/head gaskets, generator, brake booster, brakes, seats are reupholstered, electronic distributor, speedo cable (short one), oil gauge line, timing set, water pump. Comes with original distributor and air cleaner. This car is very usable as I drive it 44 miles once a week to the gym and back. I would not hesitate to take this car on a longer trip (500 miles +). Here is a chance to own a 59 imperial for under $10k!!!! Glass is all in good shape and all power windows work. There are some conditions keeping this car from being $30k or higher example. Full disclosure here and there might be some fault’s I forgot. This is a hyper critical list which many sellers would not mention these faults…… A/C does not blow cold, but compressor does turn on, radio turns on but no sound. There is rust through on the driver side door bottoms as pictured and one quarter sized hole in passenger floor along with the area around one of the two body mounts in the front passengers floor. The rest of the floors are great! Passenger side has some bubbling in same spot on doors and quarters. Clock works intermittently. Cruise control is not hooked up to Edelbrock carb. Tranny shifts through second gear very quickly (in my opinion) unless under a hard acceleration, then it shifts normal, holding each gear until revs are increased. If you push 2
nd
gear button, 2
nd
gear works just fine. It’s a line pressure adjustment I can’t do. Tires are brand new radials 14". There is no spare tire/rim. Some chrome is pitting, some is perfect. Paint is faded and old. The stainless on the roof has two small dings and a scuff mark over the drivers’ door, from what appears to be a women’s pocket book as she unlocked the door? Car will mark its spot after a drive. There is no key for the trunk but it is unlocked. It could use a front carpet kit. Car is located in Montezuma Ga 31063. More specific pictures can be taken and emailed upon request. Come and test drive/inspect it in person. Car is available 7 days a week during daylight hours. All sales are final, no warrantee. Car was purchased from Washington State where the last owner had it for 20 yrs. Car must be picked up. I will work with any shipper buyer chooses...... Car will be sold to highest bidder! No Reserve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Email @ [email protected] Ebay questions are going to spam for some reason............

Reserve Added. Vehicle Details
1981 Chrysler Imperial. 2nd owner for 20+ years. Power seats, windows, door locks, digital dash. The front seats were professionally recovered, the back seat is original, paint is original, the fuel injection is still intact and mostly working, the entire exhaust system was replaced. The not so good parts...The right exhaust manifold is cracked, the rear intake manifold seal is leaking oil, the transmission lost reverse, the a/c has leaky hoses, the trunk is rusted out at the lower lip and there is a small spot of rust under the passenger door. The car was hit on the right fender, nothing major, see the pics. The car ran and drove perfectly for 38 years until the fuel control module that is part of the pump/injector assembly plate caught fire. The assembly was replaced with a spare but it runs rich. This is being sold as a restoration project or parts car. Videos of the car running: https://youtu.be/fd0Jjia1G8Y and https://youtu.be/H3OGqxwTeAA
