Description

The history of Wood-bodied station wagons began in the 30's, often as commercial vehicles. Chrysler decided to offer in the early 40's a stylish model, in a 4-door model, before suspension of production because of WWII. After the war, Chrysler designed a vastly expanded Town & Country line and this 1948 Convertible is one of the most sought after models in existence and is a very desirable addition to any collection.

This outstanding classic automobile shows under 78,000 miles, which is believed to be from new. And what really stands out is the interior, finished in a striking blue leather upholstery, a rare option back in 1948. Coupled with the beautiful wood-grain exterior, accented by a dark blue paint, it is on Stylish piece of American history. Add on the grey Wilton wool carpeting, factory correct accessories including the dual cowl-mounted spotlights, dual side-view mirrors, dual amber colored fog lights, a Deluxe push button AM radio, optional dual MoPar 54 heater units, front and rear bumper guards, and wide white-wall Firestone Deluxe Champion Gum Dipped 8.20-15 tires mounted on steel wheels. It doesn't get much better than this.

Powered by a 325 Cubic Inch L-head inline 8-cylinder engine, which is backed by a 3-speed fluid-drive transmission, making cruising a dream. It also comes with independent front suspension and live rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs, and four-wheel hydraulic brakes.

From top to bottom, side to side, this is a very Special Classic Convertible, with a background of many, many awards, to include "Best Newport" award in 2007 at the Newport, Rhode Island Concours.
