Guest Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Would this be a CD series? https://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/cto/d/la-mesa-000antique-auto-1932-chrysler/7405362192.html Top of the line 1932 Chrysler needing a ground up restoration. Nice car to restore, no rust, no damage to body, dings etc. on fenders. 95% complete. Rolling chasis, body, engine. Two transmissions, one with overdrive, many chromed parts, some new or rebuilt parts, extra parts. 8 cylinder top of Chrysler line. Nice big body and long hood, dual sidemounts, mirrors, tail lights, cowl lights. Four door sedan. A great car to restore.

Guest Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) Edit: Yes, I thought this car looked familiar. A quick search shows I posted an earlier ad for the same car: The only thing that surprises me is how quickly I can forget this stuff!

supercub Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 A project for sure. The greasemonkey handprint on the door is a good indicator that work has just started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukejunkie1015 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Good luck finding the exhaust manifold, grill louvers and crank hole cover. The last 5% can be a lengthy and $$$ process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 But its a 'great car to restore'. Kidding aside, it does look like a pretty decent base to start with. No idea on value, but I would imagine this would bring a nice price when finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would need to bring a good price to recoup your investment. I'm no expert but I think one would have to take this on because you loved bringing an old car back to life and not as an investment. If you had a parts car setting around it would be a huge help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24Chry48 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 This is a nice car to restore, but one would need patience, because the missing parts are hard to find. Also, I noticed since the ads in March, it lost both of it's bumpers, and there is no mention of them in the Craigslist ad. If they are gone, that is a huge loss, as they will be expensive and elusive. He mentions in the ad also that this is a CH model, which it is not. It is a CP. These are beautiful cars when properly done, and I hope it doesn't end up as a street rod. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bam! sold to a ready buyer and now the next guy with this car has to worry about it. Somewhat related, I saw an ad from a guy that was parting out a car identical to mine. When I called him about a specific part I need his response was that he wanted one person to buy the whole thing? Not sure he understood what parting out meant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklyn Beer Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Sold the bumpers but nobody wanted the radiator cap? The correct one for my 31 PA is like 600 bucks.. Needless to say I don't have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Sounds like you should make an offer, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
