From 1957 the Adventurer carried Chrysler's Forward Look styling like the other divisional cars, with a convertible added beside the hardtop and the black, white and gold colors continuing. The Hemi gave way to a wedge head V8 for 1958, fuel injection proved troublesome, and the 1959 car took on more of the up market Chrysler look. In its last year it dropped the convertible and became the top trim line with four door bodies. Its model years run from 1957 to 1960.
