The Chrysler/Ghia combinations over the years have all been gorgeous and this one is no exception. The Boano Coupe is crazy gorgeous! It almost has an air of Studebaker Hawk to it up front and Continental Mk II taillights in back. Beautiful colors, in and out too. Great reading - THANK YOU John!

great story, yes I too love the car. Managed to find a video, taken for a drive from about the 10 minute mark.

Another great choice, thanks John

Thanks John. A beautiful car. The only parts I can see that it shares with my 55 Imperial are the wire wheels and steering wheel.

@perrone1 My thoughts as well Tony.  Too bad some of these beauties didn't make production!
