It is incorrect to call this a “Chrysler Imperial Crown.” It is an Imperial Crown. Imperial was its own division of the Chrysler Corp. from 1955-1975. It’s like saying Ford Lincoln Continental, or GM Cadillac Eldorado.
I am the immediate prior owner; I made No Statement on the Title, or the Bill of Sale for the $2,750 sale price of the car to this Dealer in June 2023 alluding to or 'certifying' 'original 17,000 milage'. Any written notation to that effect is false. I could in no way determine the accuracy of the odometer reading of 6,000 when I purchased the car in 2010. I suggest an immediate correction of advertising
A very nice car. Point of clarification: all US Presidential limousines of this era were Lincolns. No Chrysler, or Imperial, was ever actually the Presidential limousine. This car was designed by Elwood Engel, who did design the 1961 Lincoln Continental, upon which the era's Presidential Limousine was based. Presidential limousines of the mid 20th century were: a 1939 Lincoln Model K (the "Sunshine Special"); a 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan; a 1961 Lincoln Continental, that was modified in 1964 after the JFK assassination; a 1968 (with 1969 trim) LIncoln Continental; a 1972 Lincoln Continental that was later modified with 1977-79 trim; and a 1989 Lincoln Town Car. There were some Cadillacs in the Presidential Motorcade of this era before Cadillac took over for Lincoln in the 1990s.
I’m sure you’re right, but what about this one? Imperial Parade Phaetons that Chrysler built in 1952. One was sent to New York City, one to Los Angeles, and one to Detroit, from where it was made available to the White House and the President of the United States from that year until it was sold to private owners in 1970.
@@carebear2272 Those cars were specially made and originally loaned to the cities of Detroit, Los Angeles, and New York. They were not "members", so to speak, of the official White House motor pool.
However....there was at least one 1972 Imperial in the White House fleet. It was still in service on January 20, 1981, when it carried Ronald and Nancy Reagan to the White House, after picking them up at Blair House and taking them to church.
I grew up in the back seat of 1964 Imperial Crown. Color just like this one, interior color was green though. I love this car.

Not a Chrysler Imperial. Imperial Crown
