    For sale in our St. Louis showroom is a beautiful 1948 Chrysler Windsor C38 7P. The Chrysler Windsor was produced from 1939 to 1961, save for the war time gap of 1943 to 1945. The Chrysler Windsor made up to 62.9% of the company sales from 1946 to 1948. This black on black Windsor C38 7P was actually featured in the 2006 John Travolta film Lonely Hearts. The 7P in the title refers to the 7 passenger ability, there are 2 jump seats directly behind the front bench seat that unfold for 2 additional passengers. Options for this 1948 Chrysler Windsor C38 7P include: AM Radio (inoperable), Hub Caps, Seat Belts, Cloth Interior, and Wide White Wall Bias Ply Tires. Powering this awesome suicide door classic is the original 250 CID L-Head Inline 6 cylinder engine, which produces 114 horsepower. The unique Fluid Drive transmission was rebuilt in 2002, it has a clutch and torque converter, and is remarkably easy to operate. It features a high and low range to accommodate all driving conditions. This post WWII production is full of chrome, from the front grille and bumper, to the rocker panel chrome trim, and back to the rear bumper and tail light bezels. Open the suicide doors, when you enter the back seating area you will feel like royalty with all the room you have to move about. The real pleasure of this beautiful car though, is behind the wheel. The Fluid Drive transmission is unlike anything you will drive again. Simply put the transmission in the high range on the column shifter let out on the clutch and the torque converter does the rest. Once moving press the gas pedal as needed, at 25-30 MPH let off the gas pedal and it will shift automatically into the high gear of the high range, and you are set for highway travel. To down shift simply slow the car with the brake, once the car reaches 10-15 MPH it will automatically down shift. This is a real gem, and you will have several onlookers no matter where you take it, be it to a car show or just down the street to the grocery store. The wide white wall bias ply tires help to cement the classic late 1940's appearance.

    I had this exact car, but it was walnut brown, as the limo at my wedding as an added gift from my mom. She knew what I liked, and let me tell you, we had a big roll of black and whites taken around town with this car in the backround, and it was magical. Had to be one of the coolest moments ever.

    I love this car. My grandfather had one in the 60's. Unfortunately I only knew about photos, but I really want to review this car live one day. I am from Brazil and here it is not easy to find one of these.

    Thank you for your video 💕my Dad bought this car, we lived in NZ and Dad was in the airforce, our family of nine travelled around in it for years. Our model was very unique as it was used as a ministerial car in the Queens tour when she came to NZ. Around 1953 I think it was so it had extr reading lights and other features added, very luxurious to ride, we went camping in too. I've this car. ❤️💎🎇

    Anyone mind telling me what is the purpose for the extra seat in the rear? I believe it’s called a “jump seat?” 🤷🏾‍♂️

    Chrysler cars of that era were so stodgy I wonder anyone bought them, but there were alot of taxicabs in NYC with extra jump seats. My grandmother had a 1950 Dodge Fluid Drive two door called a "Wayfarer"
