kidding kidding...

This is my father in law's 1962 Chrysler Imperial. He bought from a customer sometime last year for about $1000. Its been sitting in his shop, but he has finally found some time to do a little work and get it registered.He had it out the other day when I went to go pick up my Jeep from getting serviced. So, I thought I'd share some photos.

 

 

I almost went poo-poo in my pants.

That car is gangsta as fuck

 

gorgeous. in for anything you and your father-in-law plan on doing with this!

 

Needs an Apple Logo on it...

 

Beautiful car! I bet the boys loved it too!

 

That's incredible, the lights look so odd.

 

Damn, that title made me stop for a second

Bad-ass Imperial. Also... how big are the boys getting? Holy crap!

 

He bought it in that condition for $1000!?

 

Thread title was just wrong .

That Imperial's in great shape; hell of a deal for $1k. Does he have any plans for it?

 

Damn that's awesome!

 

The lines on that car are amazing. Love the headlight design. Pushbutton transmission? Sweet!

 

 

Hard to believe how big cars used to be.

 

Thanks guys.

The car needs a lot of work. I'm my FiL will just tinker with it when he has time or potentially sell it later (though I hope he doesn't)

I'm pretty sure its had a paint job...and could use a new one. All the chrome needs to be redone. The interior needs to be redone, the dash has cracks. Pretty sure the electrical needs to be redone for the most part.

But it does run, and it is clean for all intents and purposes....looking at any other comparable model for sale and they are complete shit buckets for WAY more money.

Yes push button transmission. And an aftermarket 8 track player that still works

 

Now that thing has style! Just look at the steering wheel...love it.

 

If I show up with some 8 tracks, can I ride around in it?

Very nice ride. I came in expecting the worst from the thread title but was pleasantly surprised.

 

Love that car!

 

Wow.

 

so, now its cool that other car manufactures are allowed on acurazine?


this is what we've been trying to tell you USDuMbJON!
its cool too look at and discuss other makes of cars.

 

^

 

 

The title made my heart drop you f**ker lol!

That Imperial is awesome! Even with 4 doors it looks great. Those big old Chryslers had some many cool design cues to them. Very cool.

 

It's not an Acura, so we shouldn't have this thread. Mods delete it, please, so we can get back to only praising Acura.

 

If he chooses to sell it in the future, you should buy it off of him!

 

Freaking awesome. That is beautiful.

 

That mustache.

 

Exactly what I was thinking.

Pictures must be deceiving as it looks pretty good.

 

Great pics and the Imperial is in great condition for it's age.. awesome.

 

Been busy...no time to get back here.

They guy selling (a long time customer of my FiL) wanted to sell for like 7k and my FiL simply said he wouldnt pay more than 1K for it....deal was made.

The car is not a clunker thats for sure. It's just not pristine, it could use some love to get it there.

 

very cool!

 

Dam shit looks long as fuck lol

 

Looks sexy.

 

Awesome

 

Awesome!

 

awesome ride!
