15343 Miles 413 CID 340HP V8 Automatic4 Door Hardtop

Vehicle Description

West Coast Classics are proud to present a very rare, 1 of only 1,449 ever built, 1962 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron Southampton 4 door hardtop with its original 413 CID 4 barrel 350 HP "Wedge" V8 engine matched to the 'Torqueflite' automatic transmission with leather power front bucket seats, power windows & vent windows, power steering, power brakes, pile carpeting, padded dash, map lights, rare factory options including Electric Touch Tuner AM radio with power antenna, 'Airtemp' air conditioning & Heater & Defroster!
The LeBaron was a very limited production build, in 1962 the Imperial was available in only three distinct trim lines, each with specific body styles; The Imperial Custom, the Imperial Crown and the top-of-the-line Imperial LeBaron with this particular LeBaron Southampton model boasting an even rarer number 565 trim code designating an even higher end factory ordered option trim.
Imperials premium series, the LeBaron was introduced in 1957 and named after the great 1930's coachworks that had completed some of their most well known work on the Imperial chassis. Only two four door models were built, the pillared sedan and the pillarless Southampton hardtop.
The top-of-the-line LeBaron Southampton Hardtop was priced $400-$500 above the comparable Crowns and thus not very attainable except for the fortunate few. Today they prove a very rare and desriable collectible as an Imperial with the greatest of luxuries and comparable to the top-of-the-line Cadillacs.
In 1962 the priciest of the Imperials, the LeBaron Southampton pillarless sedan, offered the crisp roofline and the smaller rear window which mark the LeBaron apart from the other high end Imperial offerings and it offered nearly every possible driving convenience in its day with the most luxurious of interiors.
