1931 Chrysler CG Imperial Dual Cowl Phaeton

The totally redesigned top-of-the-line Chrysler CG Imperial arrived in 1931 with a cut-down grille, lengthened hood, reshaped fenders, and split vee'd windshield. Drawing inspiration from European coachbuilders, the semi-custom line of LeBaron roadsters and dual cowl phaetons offered some of the raciest designs from the period. One of 85 LeBaron CG dual cowl phaetons built, only two examples were assembled at Chrysler's Windsor, Ontario plant - this car being the last of the Canadian Imperials in 1931.

This Chrysler was purchased new off the 1931 Canadian National Exhibition show standard in Toronto by a reclusive mining prospect from the backwoods of Northern Ontario. It has a fully documented and fascinating history from new staying in Canadian ownership for most of its life while actively toured and shown in the Antique and Classic Car Club of Canada and CCCA Michigan region.
