This is a 1929 Chrysler Imperial Roadster with a custom Locke body. This is a rare car and only a few were produced. It should not be confused with the regular roadster body, also made by Locke. The rear deck is very different and the body has a swept panel which goes from the cowl to the rear of the car. The rumble seat has its own windshield, and the rear deck is much lower in profile. The car has a 310 cubic inch, 6-cylinder, engine with a high compression Red Head and develops 112 HP. It has 136-inch wheelbase, hydraulic brakes are standard. The engine is quiet and smooth with excellent performance as is the entire drive line.
