Our Take:
- A post-war icon: The 1947 Chrysler Windsor represents a fascinating period in automotive design, just after World War II. During this time, manufacturers were re-calibrating from wartime production, and the cars they built were known for their smooth lines and robust engineering. This Windsor's presence today is a nod to an era when driving was a more tactile experience—think of those grand road trips down Route 66.
- Flathead engine charm: The original flathead inline-six engine is a piece of history in itself, recently rebuilt to run like new. This engine, known for its simplicity and durability, was a workhorse of its time with a torquey feel that's surprisingly engaging, especially when mated to the two-speed manual that challenges contemporary drivers used to automatics.
- Unique features: The push-button start was a novelty back in the day, showcasing Chrysler's innovative spirit. This quirky feature paved the way for modern keyless ignitions, hinting at a past where car designers were already dreaming about the future.
- Preserved originality: This car has been carefully stored and maintained, retaining its original title and accident-free status. It's all-original nature—including the lovingly restored interior—gives it a rare authenticity that's increasingly hard to find. It's as if you're stepping into a time capsule, where every detail screams mid-20th century America.
