Maybe Picking up an Imperial
 
Today a guy at work offered to sell me a 1964 Chrysler Crown Imperial 4dr with a 413 big block in it. It is supposed to start and run and all chrome and trim are there...Minor scuffs on rear bumper and 1 small dent on one of the doors. It hasnt been driven in a long time but the engine was started and run a year ago. Trans didnt move but not sure about fluid level. Basically it is a running car that has been sitting for a very very long time. He said he would sell it to me for 800 dollars. I am sure it would need tires at the very least and everything else that goes bad after a car sits for a long time.

Is this car worth it. I have never been a big fan of 4 doors and usually muscle cars are more my thing but a nice cruiser might be fun.

I just thought I would get your guys opinions on it. Money is really tight now and I would have to work some deals to come up with the 800 but it also may be too good of a deal to pass up.

I think it would be worth that just to save it from the demolition derby.

Sounds like it could be a cool car!
A buddy of mine had a '64 (I think) and it seems to me, that both front fenders and the front end of the body, is 'one piece' without any seams for the fenders.

Tomorrow I am going to go look at it in person and try and sell it to my wife lol. I will hopefully take some pictures and get a better idea then.
