1959 Imperial Crown Southhampton Coupe
One of only 1743 built... Very hard to find car.
Put this in perspective in 1959 this car had a MSRP of $5460.00 and a 1959 Corvette was only $3800.00
These cars were sold to the who's who in 1959.
This car was Sold new in Vancouver BC and stayed there until just a few years ago when it came to the Sunny Okanagan.
Still has the 1978 BC Inspection sticker on the windshield!
This Car is LOADED!
Even the swivel out seats in this Imperial Crown!
DONT YOU deserve a car built for royalty!
The 1959 Imperial Crown marked the end of Virgil Exner's 'Forward Look' design theme and the start of a new era. Chrysler Corporation's hemispherical-head V8 was replaced by a new 413 cubic-inch 'wedge' with single Carter four-barrel carburetor.
The quiet 413 "Golden Lion" offering more HP than the Hemi @ 350 horsepower and it is 101 pounds lighter as well.
The 1959 was designed to be the ultimate car available on the road. Big, beautiful fins and long sweeping body lines These Imperial Crowns were built to perform and compete against the best luxury cars in the world such as the Mercedes Benz Rolls Royce and Lincoln Premier, They epitomized this era of great cars from Chrysler
The 1959 Imperials were futuristic and filled with a host of impressive features, including fingertip-controlled dual-front swivel seats and a pushbutton-actuated heater/air conditioner unit. These Jet Age innovations joined the finger-controlled TorqueFlite transmission, Auto-Pilot cruise control, radio, six-way power seats, power windows and power door locks in pampering the Imperial driver and passengers. Optional Imperial features debuting for 1959 included an air suspension enhancement to its torsion-bar setup, a self-adjusting rear view mirror and an electronic headlight beam changer.
Car has ONLY documented 113000 miles from new.

Marchionne's pay as Fiat CEO falls to $5M
Wed, 12 Mar 2014Sergio Marchionne will be buying fewer of his iconic sweaters, as his 2013 pay from Fiat took a dip from $6.24 million to an even $5 million. Marchionne, who was also CEO of Chrysler, made $307,989 thanks to some stocks and benefits from the American company, although he didn't take a salary. Of that $5 million paid by Fiat, $3.19 million came from Marchionne's fixed salary while the remaining $1.8 million was paid for hitting unspecified performance targets.
The news comes from Fiat's compensation reports, which also showed that the 61-year-old, who already owned three million shares in Fiat at the end of 2013, was able to receive an additional 2.3 million shares through a stock incentive program. According to Automotive News Europe, the additional shares would be worth about $25 million at today's prices, although so far, Marchionne has declined to claim the extra shares.
According to ANE, Fiat reported a 2013 trading profit of $4.7 billion.
Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue. Scroll down to read the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration press release.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
