Car description

1947 Chrysler New Yorker Project
Thank you for looking at our 1947 Chrysler! The car is being re-listed due to a non paying bidder several months ago. We appreciate your understanding!
We have been told this could be a rare Chrysler but we are unsure of its history. As we've understand the story, this vehicle was purchased by a celebrity and the vehicle was shipped directly to a shop in California that modified the car to be a 3 passenger convertible. Over time, the car was repainted multiple colors and ended up being shipped up to Canada where it lived for a long period of time and had the original motor replaced with a 383 before being bought by the previous owners. They planned to research and return the vehicle to its original condition but never started the project. If the story is true, this would be a very rare car. Unfortunately, we don't have the contacts or expertise to verify the story.
What we do know is that this is a 1947 Chrysler. The motor doesn't run and it does not have a back seat. The convertible top does not look quite like it is factory original to the car but operates easily and looks like it would function properly after restoration. It does fit fairly well and looks to be a mostly complete structure that does open and close. The interior is quite incomplete but the dash does look to be all there. As shown in the photos, there does seem to be some rust damage in various parts of the car. Whether you are interested in the car for its potential historical value or are looking for a unique hot rod project, this could be a fun one!
