1953 Chrysler Town & Country town and country Additional Info:
Original patina. Caravan beige and Coco brown metallic
Professionally restored engine and mechanics. Runs, rive, nsured, egistered. Amazing restored wood interior.
The wood on the inside has been refinished with spar varnish. A few pieces near the back gate, lways rotted out on these models, ave been replaced. The wood side panels near the back gate have been replaced. This is a not a professional restoration.
The original door panels (included) were badly roached…so I’ve installed teak door panels with the original door handles and window cranks.
Some of the gauges work: Not sure about the gas gauge, peedo bounces around. Wipers work. Spotlight doesn’t. Radio doesn’t
Original faux alligator upholstery has some splits. Nothing serious.
