1974 Imperial LeBaron Crown Coupe for sale by owner. This vehicle is documented as one of the only (57) Imperials produced that year as an anniversary edition. Upon purchasing some 15 years ago, I did a complete restoration to the body and interior. Original was Golden Fawn with Gold velour interior. I changed vehicle from insulation under the roof to insulation under the carpet to Formal Black / base coat clear coat to Black leather interior with Mushroom Quartz velour interior. A stunning look, which has been featured on the back cover of the WPC Chrysler magazine. Truly this car belongs in a museum.. Lack of garage space and owner wanting to relocate reason for sale.

He bought an Anniversary Edition and removed the Anniversary?
What's wrong with him.

Does look awesome though....

 

[detmatt]

Yep, I'd take that over golden fawn any day.

He changed the entire interior to match the steering wheel,

 

[MarPar]

that sucks he changed it. oh well, it does look pretty bad-*** though.

pardon my ignorance, but what would be the market on this particular car? {yes, I know the addage "it's whatever somebody will pay for it"} just wondering what the market at-large would bear...

 

[detmatt]

Nowhere near as much as he has into it.

 

[MarPar]

Nowhere near as much as he has into it.

Amen to that, Matt. A lot of times that is the case with any old car.

I dig the color change, but to do this to one of 57, it detracts from the overall value. Me? Eight to ten grand, tops, and that is assuming everything on the car works properly and has no needs.

 

[commando1]

Not one shot of the engine compartment or trunk.
I wonder just how successful he was in making the color change...
