1952 Chrysler d'Elegance Custom
Color: MAROON
Transmission: AUTO
Cylinders: V8
Engine Size: 354 HEMI
This one-off Chrysler d'Elegance was the signature car of Chrysler designer, Virgil Exner. It firmly entrenched his career at Chrysler and heavily influenced the 50's era Chrysler "letter" car series. In 1998, the showcar "Chrysler Chronos" was a modern interpretation of the "d'Elegance." And today, the new Chrysler 300 designed by Tom Gale is heavily influenced by the d'Elegance. Few cars in history, if any, have influenced over 50 years of automobile design. This car was upgraded by Chrysler in 1954 with the larger 354 cubic inch HEMI and the new torque flight transmission and 12-volt electrical system. Also, the service plagued disc brakes were converted to drums.
