All Crown Imperials of 1954 were equipped with air conditioning.The Indian summer atmosphere of the Vermont and the old gasoline pump here are superb. It appears more and more that many of these long wheelbase Chrysler Imperials and Imperials which were always very limited production cars were used in movies. Nice historical documents!
