Description

Im Selling my 1962 Chrysler Crown Imperial that was handed down to me by my father a few years back. Its been a continued project since 2006 when he purchased it. We bought it in running working original condition with a few small issues here and there but a solid car until the engine began to have oil pressure issues. It was decided that an engine rebuild was necessary and work began. Part way into the machine work it was found that the original block was warped and needed a new one. Eventually we managed to get another 413ci block off of craigslist and machined it brand new and bored out the cylinders to become a 440ci. Eventually life happened and the block sat protected on an engine stand for a while until I decided to begin my own work in an attempt to revive the girl and have gotten very far in the project, however I don't have the means and funds to complete it. I won't lie the car needs some work, the engine is almost complete top to bottom, brand new edelbrock carb, trans is good with clean fluid, torque converter is clean, new starter. Interior is extremely clean besides small tear in the drivers side bench, and carpet is torn on the floor a bit. Body is completely solid, small dents in a couple places, is gonna need a paint job but is in remarkable condition considering. Floorpan is solid and almost zero rust everywhere on the car. Has power windows all four, power front seat, air conditioning, heat, radio, leather seats. Crown package. Needs a few things such as wheel bearings, alternator, plug wires, tires(but I have a used set that works, battery, and some other small things but ill have to look at my list I made. She just needs some loving and I cant help her anymore. Pics will be up as soon as im home. Serious offers only, I know the value of this car and I know how rare it is too. No Lowballing, thanks.
