Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

331 Hemi with dual quads from a 1956 300B, automatic, power steering, chrome wire wheels wide whitewall radial tires, radio, clock, roof rack and firewall tag indicating it was dealer display car when new, original single 2-barrel intake is included.

Condition

An over the top restoration with sparkling paint, bright chrome, NOS trim, new glass and window seals and excellent upholstery and super shiny wood bed. Rumored to have been in the movies but no confirmation. The bed, with its gorgeous varnished wood and chrome bed strips, is a delight.

Market commentary

Particularly boring styling is hard to break through even with this car's fabulous restoration and presentation. Rarely seen, and almost never in this show-ready condition, nothing can offset Chrysler's 1954 design. The Forward Look was but a year away, and it makes all the difference.
