1962 Chrysler Imperial Description

this is a "no reserve" auction,,starting it at a price that these days will get you project with no seats or engine or trans !!! just a great old cruiser, don't see these around much anymore,,the bad is that it does need some restoration to a few lower sections, fixable, the leather and fabric seats need recovering but the power seat does work, the dash looks better then most early imperial dashboards, most of them warp, the lights work, the wipers work, the horn works, the heater and blower work, the big block 413 wedge engine runs great with no smoke, the pushbutton trans drops right into gear and shifts fine, exhaust sounds good and the car drives good, saw a drip coming from the bottom seal of the steering box but thats an easy fix too,,the only mechanical issue is that someone swapped out a dual reservoir master cylinder for the original and now only the front brakes work,,may be able to change the rod in the booster or just put back on a single reservoir master cylinder and that should take car of it,,i take short rides with it to keep it going but if you hit the brakes, the weight of the car on just the front brakes will cause the front brakes to lock the wheels,,another easy cheap fix {about $40 for the master cylinder} the 2 back power windows are not workin, the passenger side front works off of its own switch, the drivers side moter was tested and is good but the master switch is bad,,yes it needs some work, but it is $40 from being drivable and these things have a high book value...and it's an impressive mopar cruisin down the road.....this is a no reserve auction so please don't bid unless you are a buyer, not just a bidder, starting it low so any bid could win it,,deposit in 24 hours or it gets relisted right away, full payment in 7 days,,must clear before it leaves here, clear title and keys in hand...i will assist in loading if needed,,may be able to deliver if local to philadelphia pa 19111,,if your a good distance from here, would would need it traileredor bring a master cylinder with you and throw it on and drive it home..good tires too.
