Joe is currently selling this
wonderful 1936 Chrysler Imperial Airflow Coupe. If you are interested
or have any more questions about his car, please send an email
to Joe.
Joe has kindly
written up a little history and personal reflection on the legendary
Chrysler Airflows. "Among the many firsts, Airflows
have a unitized welded body construction and was designed in a wind tunnel
with Wilbur
and Orville Wright as consultants. In 1934, race driver
Harry Hartz established a total of 72 official AAA closed stock car records
in a 1934 Chrysler Airflow Model CU Coupe during a one day trail run at the 
Great Salt Desert, Utah. Thirty-five
of the records were in the Unlimited Stock Car class which included cars of
any engine displacement. The Chrysler Airflow established the
following speed records:
| AVERAGE SPEED |
TOTAL MILE RUN |
| 95.70 MPH |
1 |
|
90.04
MPH |
500 |
| 84.43 MPH |
2026.40(For a 24 hour run) |
Besides
this 1936 Chrysler Imperial Airflow Coupe, I have owned four other Airflows.
They are fantastic cars to drive, 
they keep up with traffic, both city and
Interstate speeds. Airflow National meets are usually held throughout the
United States yearly, from one coast to the other, and Airflows are
"driven" to these meets (not trailered). Returning to my
home
from a car show with
my other Airflow, I slowed down to make a left hand turn into my
driveway. Coming towards me was a new Corvette convertible, Ticket-Met
Red, that my neighbor had recently ordered. I decided to not turn in
front of him but let him go by so that I could get a good look at his new
Corvette. Much to my surprise, he stopped and looked
at me, presumably for a word or two of appreciation. Deciding to burst
his bubble, looking down from my lofty perch in my Airflow, I said, 'Want to Drag?'
