The 1948 Chrysler Town & Country in either coupe or convertible form is an all-time American classic. Only 2,936 examples of Chrysler’s Town & Country were built in 1948, of which approximately 194 exist today, making the most elegant car of its day now one of the rarest. This beautifully crafted 1948 sedan combines a Metallic Green finish with a Green plaid fabric-on-vinyl bench seat interior that provides roomy accommodation for those weekend trips into the countryside, with plenty of trunk space to handle the extras. This example is well outfitted with a roof-mounted luggage carrier, twin rear view mirrors, twin spotlights, an exterior sun visor, fog lights and bumper extensions.
The excellent interior is complemented with factory radio and heater. Combining steel with ash and mahogany, this rare American classic is a superb post-war collector favorite.
