Expert Posts: 1444 Location: Oconomowoc Wi | Found this cat in my home town, and wanted a bit of background before I went to talk to the owner.

Expert Posts: 1918 Location: Hell's Outhouse - a.k.a. Buckeye, Arizona | I think Bart was talking more about the owner than the car, Wayne. Bart? You thinking about snagging this smoky blue baby? Edited by 1955Coronado 2008-06-27 11:05 PM | ||

Expert Posts: 3433 Location: Chestertown, NY ( near Lake George) | Looks good, unusual single color car, look inside the 1/4's, the rear 1/4 wheel openings, the rear frame extensions, all high rust areas. | ||

Expert Posts: 1444 Location: Oconomowoc Wi | Well for starters I'd talk him into joining our little disfunctional family here on FL, and Im sure its "for sale" status will come up in the conversation. | ||

Expert Posts: 1444 Location: Oconomowoc Wi | I went back and talked with the owner of "BEULAH" ... a 1955 Chrysler New Yorker DeLuxe. The owner ( 3rd generation owner I may add ) is unlikely to sell the car any time soon. A very solid and well optioned car. But rather than steal his thunder, I've invited Mark ( Rinehart ) to join ForwardLook.net and I expect that he'll be filling in the blanks for us on this car and its history. I will supply a link to this thread in the email I send him and we should get a response soon. I did do a quick video interview with Mark, but it was accidentily deleted, so I may go back and do it again, we'll see.... Another new FL member from Wisconsin, join me in welcoming Mark. | ||

Expert Posts: 1918 Location: Hell's Outhouse - a.k.a. Buckeye, Arizona | Welcome to the network from another Mark, Mark. Love to hear about cars that've been in the family since they rolled off the showroom floor. | ||

Expert Posts: 1444 Location: Oconomowoc Wi | His Grandfather actually was the second owner, but the car has been in Marks family ever since. | ||

Expert Posts: 1918 Location: Hell's Outhouse - a.k.a. Buckeye, Arizona | Well, either way, this beauty's got a history & that's half of what makes 'em that much more interesting - especially with such a well preserved car as this one obviously is. | ||

Expert Posts: 3156 Location: NY & VT | What a car of dignified solid elegance! - they have a certain presence that the '57 and up FLs lack, I guess it's that "hewn from granite" blocky look they had in '55 and 56, enhanced in this case by the one color paint job... in any event a lovely car and a credit to the owners for its good care. | ||
