Lee Exline Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Looks like an 8-passenger sedan to me! Not sure it is a limo? Quote
Arthur1947 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Nothing said about a motor or did I miss that? Looks like fun though. Best. ARTHUR Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 You know, many of those longer Dodge and Chrysler sedans were used by funeral homes in the 40s and 50s....as family limo type cars. That was the stretch limo of their times. Some may have been done by Miller or Meteor or other hearse makers. But I think some came from the factory. Quote
PatS.... Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 That Crown's a beauty. Making a rat rod out of it would be sad According to "70 Years of Chrysler" these were factory built bodies. The large sedans could be had as anything from a lowly Royal Six up to this Crown. With or without the limo divider window. Lots of New York taxis were these long wheelbase Mopars These LWB bodies were used as ambulances as well. (built by outside coachbuilders) The door post was removed on the pass side for the stretcher. Single drivers seat. This one belonged to Starrs Ambulance in Calgary. (Taken on Center Street north of the bridge) Quote
thedahmer Posted November 10, 2006 Author Report Posted November 10, 2006 you can tell that it is a crown , because of the interior garnish mouldings, with the power windows, the trim that it has for the divider and the clock, I had one a couple of years ago and sold it to a guy in KC== HUGE CAR!!
