Off Topic: One-off 1937 Chrysler Imperial

[Jim Altemose <jaltemoose@xxxxxxxxx>]

Off-topic but interesting (I think).  This is 1937  one-off aluminum
body Chrysler Imperial that was built by Walter Chrysler for his
daughter.  It's been owned for some time by the Vanderbilt Museum on
Long Island.  The museum is one of the old Vanderbilt mansions and is
a great museum here on the north shore of Long Island.  But it's hit
on tough times like the rest of us with the bad economy.  The large
several million dollar trust fund that had been generating the annual
revenue for upkeep has taken a beating on the investments and the
amount has dwindled to where the museum can barely sustain itself.
It's a shame; hope it raises some money for them.
