These cars may not 'compete' with brand X cars, but only in the minds of people with zero clue. As owners of these wonderful cars, care factor should be zilch.
Yes, did come across it while searching, makes sense. The question remains if there were regular production Imperials in '59 factory fitted with the 392.
Ghia limos did carry over year specific body design, the 1961 limousines are in fact 1960 Imperials. Cadillac did the same with the 1965 Series 75, which was a 1964 design, while the rest of the Cadillac lineup was a completely new design.
Just watched a Jay Leno Chrysler 300G video, a 300 club member mentioned that some '59 Imperials were made with the Hemi engine. Is anyone aware if there is evidence that this is indeed true?
My dream car also. Interest seems to be dwindling in these Letter 300s, even though $70K is a lot of money, it's not stupid money like other collector cars.
I don't know, he advertised the car on FB (with no pics) at $2,750, told me I could have it for $2,500, not sure what deal they have made. In any case, I'm not interested in buying a 4-door Crown.
