1955 Crown Imperial 4 Door Sedan331 Hemi V8

1955 Crown Imperial 4 Door Sedan331 Hemi V8, nbsp;VIN: C555851 with 99,911 miles on Speedo.

In 1955:Chrysler launched the Imperial as its own Make and with its own Models, nd was a product of the new “Imperial Division of Chrysler Corporation. The 1955 Crown Imperial was inspired by Exner’s own 1952 Chrysler Imperial Parade Phaeton show cars (which themselves were later rebodied to match the 1955-56 Imperials). The platform and body shell were shared with that year's big Chryslers, ut the Imperial had a wheelbase that was 4 inches longer, roviding it with more rear seat legroom, ad a wide-spaced split egg crate grille, he same as that used on the Chrysler 300 and had free-standing "gunsight" taillights mounted above the rear quarters, hich were similar to those on the Exner's 1951 Chrysler K-310 concept car. Gunsight taillights were also known as "sparrow-strainer" taillights, amed after the device used to keep birds out of jet-engines.
