The Grill is also different.
The 46-48 also had a unique gas tank that was not shared with any other vehicle.
A Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and safe and healthy New Year to everyone.
The Crown Imperial had a 6" longer hood than the 6-cylinder Royal/Windsor models to house the straight-eight. Other than that, the visual differences were basically interior with the Crown Imperial using better quality materials. The 1941-42 models used the same basic body, but the Crown Imperial used a one-piece curved windshield while all the other Chryslers used a2-piece windshiled of flat glass. The IOC site used to have a 1942 Crown Imperial (labelled as a 1945) but I did not see when I was browsing through a few months ago. And it was not a black-out model - the rear trunk pieces were done in body colour and chrome on all 1942 Chryslers. Bill Vancouver, BC ----- Original Message ----- From: V.

Tuesday, December 20, 2005 3:38 PM Subject: IML: 1948 Chrysler Windsor Limousine Saw this on the Denver Craigslist site, gotta be RARE! And it looks to be in great condition! http://denver.craigslist.org/car/119046078.html Almost an Imperial limousine (other than the straight 6 -vs- spitfire 8, what are the differences?). It looks to be nearly identical to the 1948 Imperial limo on the '48 IML page. Hope somebody can give it a warm home!
