This 1956 Chrysler Windsor mixes a survivor-style vintage
appearance with all the best upgrades. So while the premium classic
cruiser look has instant appeal, so does the A/C interior,
Bluetooth radio, and disc brake package.
Chrysler cars of the 1950s were true executive-class luxury, you
can really see it in the design. The 1956 sedans were a leap
forward in style with tailfins that began in the rear doors and a
wide grille that announced this wanted to own the road. The
full-length trim shows off the quality that endures on this
sheetmetal and doors that close with confidence. And these cars
always look right in management-level black. The finish isn't
perfect, and instead, it goes with the very original brightwork to
deliver a car that will give people the impression that this could
be a nearly 65-year-old survivor. Plus, the half chrome headlights
and smoothie wheels with whitewalls give hints at its upgraded
cruising attitude.
These Chryslers represented full-size luxury, and so you get two
rows of wide benches with plenty of space to spread out. The
two-tone gray on the seats coordinates with the door panels, dash,
and more for a quality classic presentation. There are great
vintage details everywhere from the grab handles for the rear seats
to the courtesy light on the dash. And retro-future fans will love
Chrysler's push-button transmission selector. There have been some
more recent investments, like newer carpeting and a custom center
panel under the dash. This was built to house upgrades like the
cold-blowing air conditioning and an AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth
and upgraded speaker system. These keep this vintage Chrysler nice
for enjoying in modern times.
Under the hood is the correct 331 cubic-inch V8. Not only does this
have a great classic look, right down to the Spirfire valve covers,
but also this is date-correct to signal it could be the original
motor. The V8 fires up readily like a well-respected classic. And
to keep this classic setup running strong in today's world there
are worthwhile upgrades like an alternator and an aluminum radiator
w/electric fan. The Torqueflite three-speed transmission shifts
smoothly, and power steering makes this an easy driver. Plus, you
have upgraded front disc brakes and modern treads disguised on the
classic whitewalls. So this Windsor feels quite confident on the
road.
This is a very vintage sedan that has also been upgraded so that
you can enjoy classic motoring to the fullest. Well-done thoughtful
packages like this don't stay around for long, call today!
