1938 Chrysler Royal 5 window coupe - $42,500

[Leif in Calif]

A very nice example and a usable classic, but I doubt it will find a buyer at this price. On the other hand, you won't find a better one.... (more pics in the ad)

Very handsome car, but I'm afraid the price is a bit out of the gym.

The price should make @keithb7 very happy!  Looking at the car, I have no doubt that the seller could be truthful about spending over $100K on the restoration.  But, as we all know, this doesn't mean that he's going to get the amount he's asking for even if it's the nicest one in the world!

I think this car was on here another time at the high asking price.  It is a great looker but finding a buyer at this price will be difficult if not impossible.

@neil morse Yes indeed it is very similar to my ‘38 Chrysler Royal coupe. I’ll hold off celebrating until there is a known sell price. I did check out the Craigslist ad and found a great photo there. The Chrysler building in NYC in 1937 or ‘38.  An awesome photo!  I copied it for my own files.

I like the longer imperial nose on the 38’s
