        Location: So. Cal | Nice. It looks like he painted the aluminum trim to match the white roof, unless my eyes are just bad. Not a bad idea. I might do the same thing with mine.
The hubcaps are interesting. They seem like they might have a Chrysler lion & shield on them. Does anyone recognize them? |

No, I don't have this.
The VIN (and a data plate) will be appeared on the connorsmotorcar.com later, I think…
I’m Igor, not Ivan.

        Location: So. Cal | I disagree Tom. Most of the Chryslers only had small hubcaps in the '40's with the "Chrysler" script on them. Only the Imperials & Crown Imperials had full wheelcovers, and none of them looked like that. You can see all the pictures of them on the Imperial website.

My guess is that these wheelcovers are from some other brand, like a '50's Oldsmobile etc., and he has made some custom center emblems to insert into them.
I am talking about the long aluminum side trim on the quarter panels. They extend below the stainless trim there. Usually, they are plain silver color from clear anodizing it.

   Location: The Centennial State | This car was for sale on PA craigslist in 2017 for $32K. Accounting for inflation in today's dollars that would be ....let's see, carry the one..... $41,665 +/-

    Location: Lubbock, TX | I think most of us can agree that $32k is closer to it's realistic value in the present day. |
