The coupe is one of just nine examples in existence.
The turbine motor produced 97kW/576Nm, and the 0-100km/h sprint took a claimed 12 seconds on the way to a top speed of 228km/h. Italian design studio Ghia was contracted to manufacture the car’s body.
Just 55 examples of the peculiarity were ultimately built, and all but nine were destroyed upon the development program’s demise in 1966.
TV personality and avid motoring collector Jay Leno currently owns the only other privately-held Chrysler Turbine concept car, with the other seven examples all on public display in museums.
