Nice, clean shape. Somebody took care of it. Look at that almost pristine dashboard.

That will grab anybody's eye at a show.
I like it.

They built less than 1900 of those.

I'll take a 4 door sedan with the massive chrome window surrounds over a 4 door hardtop.

It's not a Crown Sedan. It's a Sedan. That's the pillared 4-door. Crowns and LeBarons were the hardtops.

It is a nice car, though.

Nice catch, I didn't catch the Crown part in the listing.

It's kind of like people saying "Chrysler" Imperial. It's a common thing, and if you're attuned to it, you see it all the time.

That always bugs me too.

hey, is your '67 Auto Temp? I've been flirting with the idea of converting mine to regular heater/ac controls.

Also, when you get them stripped down enough that you don't mind taking out adjusters, keep me in mind for your torsion bar adjusters.

 

[Catfish]

I don't believe it is auto temp. I will have to double check that however when I get back to town.

Very nice Imp!

Can you tell from this crappy photo? It's the only one I have available while out of town.

 

[bajajoaquin]

Looks like it is not auto temp. I'll PM.

Nice looking wheel, how's the rest of it and what color is it supposed to be?

 

[bajajoaquin]

I asked the same thing. It's been sold.

 

[commando1]

The $5,500 sweet spot of buying and selling.
Every day there's thousands of guys now in their fifties ready to let go 5 grand entering the market.
They buy a looker and know nothing about them.
Then they join a forum.

Show me a 4 speed Galaxie and I'd be one of those guys.

 

[bajajoaquin]

Show me a 4-speed Galaxie for $5k and I'd be one of them, too.

What year do you like?

 

[commando1]

63 1/2

 

[bajajoaquin]

Yeah, I'm a sucker for the hood release in the middle of the grille. And the way the taillights flow into the rear fender. '64 got too bloated.

A Q-code 427 (single 4-barrel) 4-speed is pretty much tops on my list of cars to lust for.
