1961 Chrysler Imperial Crown Convertible
413ci Golden Lion V8 | Push-Button TorqueFlite | 1 of Just 429 Built
Here’s one of the most striking examples of American luxury ever to hit the road — a 1961 Chrysler Imperial Crown Convertible finished in Coronado Cream over black leather, powered by the legendary 413ci Golden Lion V8. With only 429 built for the year, it’s rare, dramatic, and unmistakably Imperial.
Virgil Exner’s Forward Look styling is on full display: towering fins, free-standing headlights, sculpted lines, and the iconic “Flite Sweep” deck lid. This wasn’t just Chrysler building a luxury car — it was Chrysler proving they could out-style anyone.
Restored in the mid-1990s, this Imperial still presents beautifully and delivers the smooth, effortless ride these cars are known for. The 413 V8 and push-button TorqueFlite transmission make it glide with confidence, while its presence turns heads anywhere it goes.
Inside, it’s pure Jet-Age glamour: black leather seats, factory air, power top, power windows, power steering, power brakes, power seat — and chrome everywhere you look. The crystal-style taillights and standalone headlamps complete the unmistakable 1961 Imperial look.
Finished in its correct Coronado Cream (originally Formal White WW1), this Crown Convertible is an exceptionally rare find in today’s collector market. With fewer than 450 built and far fewer surviving, it represents Chrysler at its peak — dramatic design, engineering pride, and undeniable personality.
If you want a car that stops conversations, turns heads, and feels like rolling artwork, this is the one. A true piece of Detroit royalty.
