One of the results from Chrysler’s early confidence in the Airflow was that it ended up offering a wide range of variations and bodystyles on the theme, distributed among three Chrysler brands. Which to choose for today’s Airflow enthusiast, then? The Imperials have become quite rare, but one seller on Hemmings.com has made available restorable De Soto and Chrysler versions to choose from. From the description of the 1934 De Soto Airflow:

This is an all original car that has never been apart. It is an Indiana car that has suffered some rust to the right side rocker panel. It runs well but needs a major service and a complete brake system overhaul. It is reputedly the earliest known DeSoto Airflow to exist.

And from the seller’s description of the 1934 Chrysler Airflow:

This is an all original western car that never saw a drop of rust. It has what appears to be a mint restored set of tri-plane, front and rear, bumpers that go with it. It also has what appears to be an NOS grill that comes with the car. It seems to run well, but the brake need to be overhauled. This is a good straight and original (never apart) automobile
