Top Of The Line: 1949 Cadillac Imperial Sedan Limo
When you hear the name “Imperial”, you probably think of ChryCo’s Imperial, a trim level that morphed into its own brand starting in 1955. But before that time, and dating to the 1930s, Cadillac used the “Imperial” designation on… more»

Former Quarter-Miler: 1972 Pontiac Grand Prix

1966 Ford GT40 With Air Conditioning?
OK, this isn’t going to be a Ford VS Ferrari recount. Actually, this isn’t even a real Ford GT40; it’s a reproduction, but at first glance, I found it to be mostly convincing. Constructed of fiberglass, and riding on… more»

Reasonable Buy? 1965 Imperial Crown
I have contended for some time that ChryCo’s Imperial got short shrift compared to the General’s Cadillac and Ford’s Lincoln division. The late second-gen Imperial (’64-’66) is my favorite, probably due to their understated appearance and standard big Mopar… more»

Parked 40 Years Ago: 1940 Packard One-Twenty
Automotively speaking, the U.S. had it all going on at one time. For example, Henry Ford’s Model T and the assembly line of interchangeable parts, the colossus that Willie Durant turned GM into, and of course, manufacturers like Packard… more»
