From My Collection... Chrysler

Here's a couple of vintage Western Models. These Chrysler models from 1951 & 1952 have always fascinated me. I saw photos of a couple of them in a few places probably in 2017 or 2018. I was very intrigued but unfortunately the models themselves didn't seem to be all that available. I was lucky enough to come across a New Yorker convertible in 2019, I snapped that one up and it was a perfect companion to my '51 & '52 Imperial models from Brooklin. I continued to look from time to time, bid and lost on a couple of them. In 2021, I found a New Yorker Newport that came my way. Now just a couple of months ago, I came across these Windsor models, they are very nice (although the headlight lenses have yellowed) With these four and the multiple Brooklin Imperial models, I think I've got the early 50s Chrysler models covered pretty well. 1951 Chrysler Windsor DeLuxe Sedan - Western Models, WKD 7 in Foam Green & Continental Green 1952 Chrysler Windsor DeLuxe Coupe - Western Models, WKD 5 in Monitor Gray & Gull Gray

@karl Our friend Frank kept it in fine shape, until I took it off his hands in March.

I like the angled B pillar on the coupe. I only remember seeing sedans and hardtops back then.
