For Sale 1968 Imperial Mobile Director - cl ad

[shrewboy]

Not mine, and only an hour away from me. Unfortunately, I don't have the cash to get it or a place to put it. Definitely has some rust around the back, but you'd be the only kid on the block with one of these! I'm not sure about the mix of gold and green outside with black inside - might have to go with another color option as long as you're doing the rust repair. The interior doesn't look as bad as the exterior.

Super rare, I couldn't do that color combo though. Nice find.

That's a easy fix just put a black top on. I like the rest of the car but that's too much $ for a weird seat.

The more I see them popping up now, the less I'm impressed.

I'd look into a gold vinyl top for it to match the paint. I wonder what sort of "best offer" is going to get it. $6500 is too much.

That car is a lot of work, but '68 Mobile Directors are pretty rare. If you're into that.

What's this wrench for?

 

[detmatt]

Probably something to do with the table.

 

[1978 NYB]

To lock the base of the table in place.

 

[70bigblockdodge]

Looks almost like a alternator tension tool. Maybe too small after looking at.it.next to owners manual.

 

[1978 NYB]

I seen one at the Mason Dixon show and the guy just put the table in. He was parked next to me. I didn't watch him or was paying attention but he came out of the car with that wrench after putting in the table.

 

[shrewboy]

I'm not sure what best offer is going to get it, but was just cruising through Craigslist and saw it again (http://reading.craigslist.org/cto/4733442590.html). Down to $4500 now. That's a pretty good discount in a little over 3 months.

from the looks of the back bumper, i'd be a little scared of what is under the trunk mat. what are the eye bolt looking things for along the trunk gutter?

Those are twist locks to hold the side cover on.....
Makes the trunk look "clean" when covers are installed ...

 

[1970cat]

ah-ha. i take it that side cover is what is wadded up behind the jack then.

 

[detmatt]

Nope, there's an inner liner too. The cover is not in the pic.

 

[70bigblockdodge]

I think there is more interior in the trunk of those Imperials than there is in a Dart interior.

 

[commando1]

I'm getting the feeling none of the owners were "Chrysler" men.
More like "Ima important guy. See?" men.

I wonder where and how the director table and mast is stored when not in use?

 

[detmatt]

Something like this.
