Welcome to the Imperial Club, Manfred.
A prewar Imperial is a welcome addition.
My 70 Years of Chrysler book shows the
CH series five passenger sedan as costing $1,945 and production of
1,002.
A shop manual & parts book are very helpful in a restoration. The only
Literature Dealer which comes to mind is Walter Miller. Other members
may offer
suggestions. I ordered the correct fabric,
(Seats, headliner & carpet) from LeBaron
who advertize in Hemmings. Pictures,
before, during and after restoration are recommended if you don't have a
better memory than I do. :)
Congratulations on your "new" Imperial.
