1948 Chrysler Town And Country at Ellingson Motorcars in Rogers, MN

This 1948 Chrysler Town and County is an absolutely stunning post-war, wood-bodied luxury automobile and is deemed a "Full Classic" by the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA). As World War II ended, American automakers began to restart automobile production after the onset of the War brought the automotive industry to a halt. Although Chrysler (along with its contemporaries) were permitted to begin producing cars again, they were not able to retool their lines and therefore many of the American cars from 1946 through 1948 largely resembled their pre-war counterparts. One way that Chrysler was able to differentiate its post-war offerings from the 1942 models was the addition of a new Town & Country model that featured steel bodies adorned by white ash and mahogany paneling. These Chrysler woodies were gorgeous to look at, which was especially impressive considering the production challenges that Chrysler faced when restarting automobile production. Powering this Chrysler is a 250.6 "Spitfire" L-Head Inline 6 fed by a single 2 barrel carburetor. It is mated to a Gyrol Fluid-Drive Semi-Automatic Transmission which was quite the technological innovation and a novelty back in 1948. The addition of an electric fuel pump is also a welcome addition on a vehicle of this age. Braking is supplied by hydraulic drum brakes in all four corners. A pair chrome side mirrors and a pair of chrome spotlights add to the period feel of this '48 Town & Country and improve the utility of this luxury automobile. The original bias-ply tires have been replaced with a set of radials mounted on steel rims and accented by chrome Chrysler hubcaps and chrome beauty rings that together give this 4 door sedan a gorgeous look and even better ride. The chrome and brightwork around the exterior of this 1948 Chrysler is in wonderful condition and adds to the car's highly appointed exterior appearance. The exterior has been refinished correctly in Dove Gray paint which is set off by Ash wood framing and Mahogany veneer paneling. A wooden roof-mounted luggage rack is in wonderful condition and completes the exterior look of the car. The interior of this 1948 Chrysler is exquisite! The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in Oxblood Burgundy leather accented by Taupe Bedford Cord cloth inserts. The burgundy carpeting, wood door panels with burgundy upholstered door handles, steering wheel and dash are in beautiful condition and all appear to be in their stock configuration. The instrument cluster is outfitted with a 110 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, amp gauge, oil pressure gauge, and fuel gauge. The dash is equipped with a clock, push-button AM radio, speaker and controls for the heater and lights.
