Leif in Calif Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Looks like a very nice car fairly priced! More pics in ad... https://slo.craigslist.org/cto/7567154978.html First series Chrysler Windsor Highlander Convertible.I have owned this car for about 6 to 7 years.Maybe longer just don’t remember. The car was restored prior to my ownership. I added Diamond Classic Radial tires.New battery and brakes. The car always starts, runs great and very dependable.Top works, all gauges work, even the TipTop trans shifts correctly. email: faf33dc34f173247924e7c17fe880d5e@sale.craigslist.org 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1949 redesign was delayed, so they issued a "first series" of 1949 models, which in fact were just the '46-'48 model. So this is correctly identified as a "first series" 1949. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Seems like a pretty good buy. Unfortunately its the early style. Boy it would be really sharp and seem even more of a deal if it was the late style. A little better color wouldn't hurt. A darker hue would really make the chrome pop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 The light blue with the darker top looks sharp. I would be very happy owning this car if convertibles were my thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the 46-49 1/2 style. The 49 2nd series probably looks the same as a convertible though. But otherwise was a Keller square box of a style. Engineers ruled Chrysler at the time.

auburnseeker Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I prefer the Box to the bloated whale look, especially in this color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you could name it Moby Dick! 😄 I know I am like a broken record on these cars, but they are wonderfully dependable and well-engineered. This looks like a good deal to me.

ericmac Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I like this one a lot. To me this seems like a really good buy on a car I'd use as a daily driver 8 months of the. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Jake Moran Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Agreed. Price is awesome for such a well sorted 1940s convertible. It will be sold soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The color isn't great, but not horrible. Think of the abominations we see daily on here. I do think the whitewalls are not helping the color. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deac Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) cool ride and good price for a convertible. Funny, I know it's not a Buick but it's located pretty damn close to Bob's.

24Chry48 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Remember the cars always look way better in person than in pictures. And this one looks good in pictures. I have a 55 Imperial that is close to the same color and the chrome shows very well against it. I do prefer darker colors but this color is richer than you might think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
