The passenger door top swept onto roof is interesting detail.

Not to mention it has a history with a Detroit tycoon.. and 331 hemi V8.

And still has the factory 4 wheel disc brakes also used on the 1950 T&C cars.

Nice, and down where I have some family too... NEed to focus on one project at a time though.

Nice originally owned by Walter Briggs the owner of the company that built the bodies for Chrysler at the time and the Detroit Tigers. That car should be restored and in a Museum.

Pekka - import it and make it your next project!

[Uncle-Pekka]

Mark,

That idea crossed my mind as well, but you know...

So many interesting cars... So small a garage...

Ended with no bids. My wife says make him a lower offer, but I have several I'll never finish.

It's a very unique and rare car but not a popular and reasonable car to restore. You could easily dump at least $50,000 into it and have a reasonably nice car worth only $20,000. That even if hot rodded too! Chrysler Limo /8 pass sedans of the early 50's don't sell too well.
