Price: US $2,025.00
Up for auction is my 1970 Chrysler Imperial barn find. This car is original and unrestored. It only has 22, 000 miles on it. It was purchased in 11/69 by an older couple who had it serviced at the local Chrysler dealer until 1987 when they sold it to her nephew he drove it for a while and stored it in 1987. It was in storage from 1987 until 2015. After the nephew passed away his son inherited it. I purchased it in March of 2016. I have the original bill or sale, Window sticker, all the service records, the broadcast sheet and the owners manual. The car did not run when I got it. I had to replace the fuel tank, sending unit, all the rubber fuel lines, rebuild the carburetor and have a valve job done. (there were 3 stuck valves from sitting) It has 4 new tires. I also have the bias ply tires that were on it in 1987. This car is mostly original except for the service work done. I added a Petronix electronic ignition system. I did not cut or modify the wiring harness. According to the Chrysler Imperial Car Club the total production for 2 door hardtops in 1970 was 1803. This car is a true survivor!! The reason I am selling it is that it is too big to fit in my garage and its too nice to leave outside!!
I will not disclose the reserve price so please don't ask. I cannot and will not ship the car anywhere. It is for local pickup only!
I reserve the right to end this auction at anytime as it is also for sale locally.

“This car is in excellent condition for a 46 year old car but it is not perfect. it has a small dent on the right rear quarter panel and a small scratch on the left front fender. I have pics of these. The other known issues are the A/C needs recharged, there is a slight rear axle noise and the trim on the front center console is broken. This car runs and drives well. Feel free to ask questions or come and inspect the vehicle before bidding.” |
