1956 Chrysler Imperial Base 5.8L
1956 Chrysler Imperial South Hampton Coupe
The car was its own brand in these years, so its an Imperial.
It has a the original 354 Hemi with a three speed automatic.
I don't think that the enginehas ever been opened and is a bit tired. Mileage unknown.
However is still dependable, uses some oil and smokes going downhill on compression.
There is typical pitting on the chrome.
It also has a not so good older repaint.
Has been reupholstered in originalmaterials so the interior is nice.
There is some rust in the drivers floor that has been patched but not professionally.
Also has some small rusty spots in the doors.
This is not a show car, but rather a good fun driver quality car.
All of the lights, turn signals, electric windows, trunk light, and gauges work properly. The radio and clock do not work.
Please do not let the pictures fool you. Although this is a handsome car and it is dependable you are not bidding on an $80,000 show car.
The car is available for inspection.
