This 22,000 Original Miles true survivor retains its 100% original beautiful Ivory over Desert Rose paint and is complimented by its all original two-tone gray cloth interior. It features the Chrysler Spitfire V8 engine with 225 horsepower and innovative smooth shifting push button Powerflite three speed automatic transmission! The car was purchased new at Tom Lyons Chrysler/Plymouth in Chicago in 1956 and it has been under one local familys ownership for the past six decades! The family went through great lengths to preserve this cars originality to the point of having a designated climate controlled garage built for its storage and preservation. This consummate Barn Find is rust free and displays only normal storage patina with a sense of authenticity and character that cant be duplicated. This Everyday Driver even retains its original fuel pump, carburetors and spare tire!  The exterior chrome, from front to back is in very nice condition accentuating this cars beautiful lines and contours! The graceful rear deck with the long high swept rear fenders, Twin Tower Taillights and the wide curved Clearbac rear window are all combined in a unified design to create the look of power and motion. Enter the Original interior using the large chromed  pull door handles and youll be greeted by a dashboard thats painted in high gloss grey, gleaming chrome instrument bezels, two-tone cloth seats and original gray carpets that all reflect this cars low original miles! Bench seats are at chair height and cushions and seat backs are soft and comfortable. As you move the seat forward, it raises to give you a better, more comfortable driving position! You sit relaxed, with plenty of head and legroom and the wide Superscenic windshield gives you an excellent commanding view of the road. All the dials are crystal clear and easy to read and the switches are all within easy reach and in perfect view of the instrument panel. Just select D for drive by merely pushing a button on the push button drive selector and youre ready for the open road! With its Flight-Sweep body design, long 126 wheelbase and power steering/brakes, this Everyday Driver is an absolute pleasure to drive and offers the smoothest, softest ride you could imagine! If youre looking for the perfect car that you can take to local cruise events or just get in and start enjoying now, this one checks off all the important boxes: completely original and mechanically strong with a solid undercarriage. This Windsor is accompanied by extensive history and documentation including: photo album, original brochure, service manual, newspaper article Featuring this car, later maintenance receipts, extra keys, cruise night awards and original owners manuals.
