Beautiful shot of a wonderful car. Starting with Chryslers 413 cid wedge engine and either Cross Ram Long Tube Induction delivering 375 HP or Short Tube Cross Ram Induction delivering 400 HP. Standard equipment was the Chrysler "Type Writer" three speed push button automatic transmission. Some, however were offered with floor mounted three manual transmission.
yep, those were the days when everyone wanted 4 on the floor, but were quickly finding out that Chrysler's Torqueflight automatic, which first became available in '57, was beating them at the track and on the street. Thanks!
