Equipment
Altimeter, phone, sunroof. Built for Fred Astaire, sold by his wife with a touching letter to the new owner hoping he will enjoy the car as much as Fred did. 22,220 miles. Clean but shows its age.
Market commentary
Fred Astaires Imperial and Elviss Grand Prix both brought about the same money. The Elvis touch is, at least to the market at large, probably a better bet but those who remember the classy and stylish Fred might give the nod to this Imperial. Freds Phantom I Hooper Town Car (80NC) was sitting in the Rolls Royce display inside the Petersen ... its unlikely his Imperial will achieve such a distinction.
