chrysler30 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I'm looking at buying a "so called" 1929 Chrysler 75 convertible roadster. The pics I've gotten aren't very good but it looks like the pillars on the forward doors go all the way to the roof line. And the doors follow the pillar with three hinges and an inserted windshield that does not really match. I always thought the windshield was seperate. Could this be factory or a conversion? This is also a 2 door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlLaFong Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) The pictures that we got are even worse.Sounds like a coupe with the top cut off or a cabriolet Edited October 5, 2015 by CarlLaFong (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysler30 Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Sorry for no pics. They came in on my phone. Will post when I get someone smarter to load them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Sounds as if it is a Convertible Coupe and not a roadster. Assuming it is what you say it is then it is much rarer than the roadster - production about 1400 vs about 6,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drwatson Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Dammann's "70 Years of Chrysler" book pictures the Conv. Coupe you seem to describe. Picture came from Harrah's, Reno.1430 made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keiser31 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) 1929 Chrysler convertible coupe. Kinda rare! Edited October 6, 2015 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysler30 Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 Was wondering when you would chime in Keiser31. Anyone got a figure on value? Runs and drives but could use paint and interior and possible top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Man Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Is it just me or could this be the Harrah car? Paint is identical, only thing missing is the side mount covers. Price? now days it is anybody's guess, ebay keeps getting crazier every day. What I would think is 15k to 25k, the history and condition are everything, but it looks like a good solid car. If you are worried find someone to check the car out well worth your money. Anybody notice the top door hinge looks low?

chrysler30 Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 i looked at those hinges and just above them looks like 2 holes, possibly for mounting mirrors. Does look like the one from Harrahs. I called them and they don't have that car anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
