The description and small pics seem a bit fishy to me. Usually when the description talks more about the type of car rather than giving more details on the actual car being sold, it's either a dealer or a scam. If it was a dealer though, I think they'd be trying to get more than $21000 for this thing. On top of that, no phone number is given, just e-mail. 

This elegant 1958 Chrysler Imperial was the pinnacle of luxury for the 50s with options most cars of today wish they had. A very rare and expensive car of the day as there were only 675 produced. Loaded with power equipment like power windows, power convertible top, 6 way power seat, push button Torque Flite automatic transmission, power mirror, quad headlights, and so much more. It is powered by the legendary 392cu in Hemi V8 making 345hp. These Imperials had ultra smooth rides thanks to a 149.5 inch wheel base that was over 20in longer than the Eldorado of the day. Claimed to be 43k original miles. This mostly original car was sorted then driven on many tours and featured in "Auto Restored" magazine in 1995. Very nice inside and out with a solid frame. Comes with sales brochure.

Even the official seller (KC Classic auto) says anything !!! He confuses Ghia limo and factory cars ........... The wheel base is 129" .
