1966 'Daimler Chrysler' Imperial Convertible - OK

[Homerr]

$10,875

I did not know Daimler was part of Chrysler in 1966.

However, seems like a decent car for the price. Note snow in photos, may have been around a while - last day it snowed in Purcell, OK was March 3.

Second link has interior pics.

A Ford dealer .......... I wonder if it was a trade in.

Nice car for the money. A little detailing and it would be outstanding. The by passed heater core is a little worrysome.

That's Patriot Ford in Purcell, OK. Of course, the seller gives us a tedious story of unrelated Imperial history/trivia, and tells us nothing about the car that is for sale. $10,785 sounds like a decent-enough price for an Imperial ragtop, assuming it's in decent condition, overall. Nice thing about the heater core is that it is not terribly difficult to service on this, as much of the assembly is accessed under the hood. I might have to check this one out.

Very nice car but the term Daimler has nothing to do with Chrysler in 66. If the car turns out to be as nice as the pics, someone is going to get one hell of a deal on a very well kept car.

it does look nice but a bit too stately for my tastes. ..

Now slam it down a couple of inches n stuff some 22" rims, n add a pearl yellow ghost flame job on it an then you got something good going! !!:the penguin:

Oh yah... don't forget the boom box in the trunk. .

Studebaker/Packard was actually handling the Mercedes Distribution part of the 50s and 60s. That grille on the Hawk of these years always looked suspicious to me.

Hmmm, so you're that guy.

When I opened the Dealer email it said $8422. If all is accurate and no surprises then this car is well deserved title of being a "Great Buy".

Ha Ha!!!!!!

That's a hell of a great looking car .. good luck Patrick I hope you get it if you decide it works out for you.

On second thought I think this car came up quite some time ago and it was also in lot of this dealership.

You must be on the wrong site .....

Those are the kind of mods that make the NICE cars more valuable.

So how was it?

 

[patrick66]

Heading out in a little bit, actually. I likely have my custom Dodge van sold today, and am waiting him to show up from Dallas (he's half way here now).

 

[tallhair]

Certainly a sweet sweet car. Good luck
