Then & Now: Chrysler’s Chrysler


In restoring the 1937 Chrysler Imperial C-15 LeBaron Town Car, we were fortunate to have discovered original factory photos. Here are the "Then" 1937 photos in comparison with "Now" 2014 images.

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Enjoy,

Howard

Nothing can be better than that.

Wow—good as new!  Maybe better.

Just amazing. A great idea to recreate the same camera angles and shots of this stunning restoration. Not to nitpick, but curious as to why the side view mirrors are at a different height and use slightly different stalks than original ones? More effective, perhaps? Hope to see the car soon at a Concours. Saw it at Greenwich prior to restoration.

I also noticed the mirrors. They seem to be missing in the “now” front view or I just can’t pick them out.
