Not saying they didn't exist, BUT this is the first one I've ever heard of documented.

John,

 

    When I was a kid there was a guy across the street from where I lived that got a new Chrysler every other year. He had a 1956 red. white and black Chrysler New Yorker St Regis with wire wheels, record player, power everything and a three speed torqueflite transmission. It was the first one I ever saw. I did not see any after that except in 300 B's and Imperials.

Imperials very late in the year and few 300B's received Torqueflites.
