Did you know...

Roof treatment is the only difference I can see.  🤓

The car in the back of the picture has a white interior while the one in front has a black interior. I believe the majority of the Turbin cars had interiors that matched the exterior. I also believe that there was one car painted white if memory serves me correctly.

There were a total of 55 cars; 5 were prototypes & had variations in both the interiors & exteriors…the remaining 50 were all identical, with the bronze paint & black vinyl top, & bronze interiors with aluminum trim…

@terryslekar, thanks. This is the first I've heard of the five prototypes. Poking around, there's not much information available on them. Here's an early pic. 

And here's a video..."THE HUMANITY!"

Yeah, the turbine program actually started in the ‘50’s in a ‘54 Plymouth, followed by a ‘56 & then a ‘59…only 9 turbine cars remain, Chrysler has 2, 6 more are in museums & Jay Leno has one…

They were still trying in 1977,

Ugh. That video is very hard to watch.  I remember seeing these cars at the New York World's Fair in the summer of '64 driving around the Chrysler Pavillion test track.  I was nine years old at the time and it's been one of my all-time favorite cars ever since.

Here's a white one used in the 1964 movie The Lively Set starring James Darren.  Also in civilian dress.  Not sure if they are the same car.

There were a few variations among the iconic Chrysler Turbine.

I hate to admit it, but I did NOT know this. Thanks!

Looks very much like the resurrected Imperial of ‘81 - ‘83…also has shades of the ‘77 - ‘81 LeBaron…

The Chrysler Turbine in my neighborhood had the black vinyl top.

I remember filling the bronze car up with diesel fuel @ my dad's Atlantic station which was on Rt 17 Paramus,NJ

and the Chrysler/Plymouth dealer Castle Motors was accross the street saw the cars a lot back then good times !
