SOLD - 1932 Chrysler CI 6 Five Passenger Sedan - PROJECT

[Guest Bberry42]

Hello All - I've been tasked with selling my Dad's beloved 1932 Chrysler CI 6 Five Passenger Sedan.  It is not running and although it was garaged for the first 75 years of her life, she's been a bit beat up by Mother Nature for the past 7-8 years. As you can see from the pics, the stored parts are in very good condition.

 

According to my dad, all the parts are together and have been in storage for decades.  The engine block and chassis are on the frame.  Pretty much everything else is boxed up.  He just never got around to putting it all together.  

 

I am a car guy myself but not a 30's expert by any means.

 

The car resides in eastern San Diego County, California.

 

I am more interested in selling the entire package than parting out.   All reasonable offers given respectful consideration.   

 

Thanks all in advance!

 

Not Original Car, would be interested to learn why grille is different

Do you have a ballpark figure in mind?

[Guest Bberry42]

Still doing research on pricing, so no ballpark figure yet.  We are motivated to sell and realize a disassembled car is going to be sold at a steep discount to an assembled one. That is the best I can give you right now.

Is it just the engine block in the car?  Has it been sitting, with the head off, open to the elements for the last seven to eight years?  I assume that's the crankshaft in the third row photo, first on the left.  Just to help you ballpark, I paid four thousand for 1932 Dodge DL six four door sedan with sidemounts.  A very similar vehicle, although the Chrysler is a bit upscale from the Dodge. Mine was a running car, all together, that needed lots of work but was still in a bit better shape than yours.

Thanks very much Taylormade for the pricing info.  Yes to your question about the block (sadly) and yes to crankshaft as well.  Have a load of parts in bins that I did not photograph, including water pump, distributor, oil pan, cylinder head and such.  Still looking for chrome and radiator cap, I am sure I will find it.

 

I am thinking after a bit of research that and EBay auction may be my best shot.

I would give an offer, but I am on the east coast, why not give the AACA Original guys a shot first so they might keep it all the way Walter Made the car,just a thought, before some hack Job rodder ruin's it
