1946→1948 Chrysler Town & Country Convertible

With it’s vibrant woodwork, the Town & Country was one of the most distinctive cars of the post-war era. It had an extensive use of white ash and mahogany wood panels with a contrasting frame.

At the time Chrysler described it as “perfect background for those to whom distinction comes naturally. There’s an air about this glorious convertible – a whisper of country clubs and moonlight rides.”
