1959 Chrysler Imperial
| 8 imagesNow that the weather is improving here, more classics are waking up from their winter slumber and seeing the sunlight once again. This is one of my favorite local cars – restored, with the original 413 Wedgehead engine, and factory-optional FliteSweep deck lid and Silvercrest stainless steep top. The ’59s have Virgil Exner’s “Forward Look” styling (as do all Mopars of the late 50s), along with wonderful gun-sight taillights mounted on the sweeping fins, giving it a bit of mid-century modern flair. Â Hopefully I will have more opportunities to photograph it again soon.
