Description
Lot #935 - This 1958 Chrysler Imperial Crown convertible is finished in Ballet Blue over Misty Pale Blue and is powered by a 392ci HEMI V8 engine paired to a 3-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission. The engine, transmission, starter and generator were refreshed in 2018. Its equipment includes a power-operated soft-top, chrome bumpers and trim, a push-button gear selector and power-assisted steering. The car is reportedly one of 675 Imperial Crown convertibles produced for the 1958 model year, and the body was refinished in the factory color of Ballet Blue under previous ownership. The white power-operated soft-top was also replaced, and additional equipment includes quad headlamps, circular parking lamps and a Flite Sweep decklid equipped with a faux spare-tire bulge. It rides on steel 14-inch wheels wearing chrome covers and wide whitewall tires. A full-size whitewall spare is stored in the trunk with the original jack. The car's braking system was overhauled in 2018. The seats and door panels are upholstered in Misty Pale Blue leather with cloth inserts. Amenities include a power-adjustable front seat, power windows, a heater, branded door sill guards and an Electro Touch Tuner radio.
