Elite definition: A select group that is superior to the rest of a group.
Our Elite Collection is comprised of automobiles we consider to be superior in terms of significance, desirability, rarity, quality, and beauty. These are cars that only a select group of privileged people will ever have the good fortune of owning. As caretaker of one of these investments, you will not only see a financial return but also a more valuable return of pride and joy!
Only 1,049 made total! This car underwent a complete body off frame restoration to factory condition. Less than 1,000 miles have been driven since finished.
1957 saw a complete redesign resulting in this lower, sleeker car with fins that sweep upwards. Referred to as "The most glamorous car in a generation". 1957 also saw 2 major mechanical innovations: Torsion Air ride and a 3-speed automatic transmission.
EXTERIOR: How can you top this? If this doesn't impress, I don't know what will! The body is literally laser straight, every square inch. There's zero rust, zero damage. Repainted gorgeous Cloud White with Guaghin Red stripe is polished like glass. Every piece of chrome and trim is restored to show quality. It even has the rare optional spheres on top of the headlights. All new glass with rechromed frames. Bright white power top. Beautiful radial whitewalls and wire wheels. The correct hubcaps in pristine shape are included too.
INTERIOR: Just as pristine as the exterior. It is restored to high standards right down to the small details. A very unique feature is the push button transmission where the neutral switch is the starter button. The dash area is like artwork: beautiful gauges and gold knobs. Rare two-tone Mocha and Guaghin red interior. It also features power windows and power bench seat.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This is mechanical jewelry! Every single component is refinished, polished, restored and detailed like brand new. The heart of it is a 392 Hemi making 325 hp and 440 lbs of torque! It features power steering and brakes. It even has the Mopar washer fluid bag. The battery is properly secured and has a disconnect switch.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside this ginormous trunk is completely restored. The white is painted as slick as the exterior. It has the complete liner kit including the carpeted floor and side panels. The latches, stickers, and weather strip look like new. The spare has never been used. The rim and jack are restored like new and secured properly.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame and literally every component was restored and detailed. The chassis was stripped and painted gloss black. The floors are pristine, clean smooth metal painted satin black. It has the correct dual exhaust system. The fuel system was completely replaced. All the suspension and steering were rebuilt. The brake system was restored, e-brake is hooked up. Bottom of the motor is spotless. The Torqueflite 3-speed automatic trans looks like new. The driveshaft and rear end were restored.
I deal with some incredibly nice cars and this one is among the best you'll find anywhere in the world!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
