1957 Imperial Crown Southampton 2 door hardtop Coupe. Rare car, low production, top of the line and very expensive in 57, beautiful design, soaring fins, long low and wide! King of the Forward Look. Hate to sell but, really need the indoor space.
Original 392 Hemi V-8 should still runjust finewith going through basics again such as, fresh fluids new battery etc, as itsbeen in storage and not used, car had little/no brakes last time I moved it and it will definitelyneed newmufflers among other general work. I last ran it 2 years ago. Basically verystraight andrust free car, solid great floors including trunk, rock solid straight quarters etca few oldprimer spots here and there, original black California car with original 1963 issued black and yellow license plates. Gauges nice, steering wheel has some common cracking, crumble issues but, otherwise good and intact. taillights lenses as I recall I have are damaged. So it will need those. Kept under roof past 30 years plus.
Some of the trim and moldings are off (mainly around roof/headliner areas) but, I have nearly all IFnot all trim? Its in the trunk, I have the originalradio (in trunk).It's allquite original and mainlyintact.Door panels in trunk,It is currently sitting on genuine15" (rather than usual14")Imperial rims (w/4xwheel covers) w/ old tires that hold air.You most likelyknow what this caris, I don't have to sell it but, its priced to sell and I feel its very reasonable(no low ball offers please).I purchased from original old gentleman owner many moons ago! It will require restoration but, should be relatively easy as its complete and not rusty. Solid car that did run fine when retired.
