This is one of only 119 units factory built 62 years ago and I've only
been able to confirm the existence of 8 or 9 of them today. Former owners
of this model include US Presidents Eisenhower and Truman, Frank Phillips, president
of Phillips 66 Company, William Goetz, famous Hollywood producer of the
fifties, Thelma Chrysler Foy, daughter of Chrysler Corp founder Walter P.
Chrysler, and more recently, the late great Godfather of Soul, James
Brown.
This will seat up to 8 pax plus the chauffeur and bills at just
$80.00/Hr with the tax and driver gratuity already included. Anything 3
Hr or longer can be booked as a split trip with multiple service times with a
break in between that's off the clock. This can be cheaper than booking
long block times for some itineraries like riding to the hotel after the
reception. Big band and swing era music is played on the sound system and
drivers are attired in fifties era staff chauffeur uniforms for the total
nostalgic ambiance.
Cassette tape and CD/MP3/Ipod capability are also offered if you wish to
provide your own favorite background music for the event. Be advised
these antiques built before air conditioning had even been invented can have
the potential to be warm on a summer afternoon, however I do carry
complementary bottled water and soft drinks in the cooler. Still it might
be a factor for consideration of passenger comfort.
