I literally bought this classy ‘80s executive cruiser one hour ago . And tomorrow we shall see if she makes it to the Radwood car show!
Unfortunately I missed the deadline to enter a vehicle into the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! car show, but that doesn’t mean we can’t roll down there in 1980s style?
This Fifth Avenue cruises like a dream, and floats over speedbumps like a fine boat should. Maybe if the Radwood top brass catches a glimpse of the fine Corinthian leather they’ll let it through the gates!!
Either way, tomorrow AM we’ll see if this vehicle can make the trek down to Anaheim California. I’ve only driven the thing 3 miles so far. Only needs to make it 100 miles. Wish us luck! And if you’re headed down to Radwood donning your fanny packs and acid washed jeans, please stop if you see an overheating gold Chrysler on the side of the 5 freeway.

It might just become my daily. It’s really a pleasure to drive! (at least the 3 miles that I’ve driven it)

WOWZA! I can’t remember the last time I saw one that nice! Does it have those amazing button-tuck leather seats? My lord those are comfortable!

There’s one near me for sale in decent shape, with a 318 under the hood. Ad just says “being driven daily, no major issues except: A/C doesn’t work, headliner sagging, rad is missing all the fins, but doesn’t overheat. $650 obo”
I’ve been dwelling on it. .

Yep! It is smooth, but not quick by any stretch of the imagination.

Yes! Button-tufted, pillow-soft seats. They are incredibly comfortable. And shag carpeting to boot!

There wasn’t much hesitation in snatching up this fine automobile...

If it’s near Ohio I may just help your decision making by buying it myself. I have a weird love of these cars, and that’s a fantastic price.
