Description
In 2004, I found this gem being unloaded on off a flat bed with a man holding a "for sale" sign ready to tape on, I pulled over and asked how much, we talked and said this was his fathers car stored for 29 years, he said he passed and selling, thought he would put it on a main road in front of his business. I said "sold", left a deposit. This is a 1968 Chrysler Crown Coupe, with 67k miles, only 2656 made in that yr., weighing in at 4740lbs. 100% original, did my own restore keeping it as original in every way, I did changes, but have all original parts stored. The duel temp control was leaking, took out core, no heat (will never see cold weather), but air works great, that is the only major change. Every system has been restored to new or better, all documented pics and receipts on hand. It, I must say, is a unique and special car, gets tons of looks. This car is pampered, always indoors, never seen rain or garden hose, hand washed only, only drive on clear days, selling this for a retirement trip to Europe next year.
