Not your Grandpa's Chrysler Imperial

[FATCAT]

Found over on the AllPar.com site a picture of what previously was to be a concept 2006 Imperial. Though it has not been produced it looks kinda neat.



I remember when I was about 2 or 3, maybe 4 years old, my mother had either a Newport or an Imperial (my father got from a police sale ... had the 440 engine and cop everything ... a 1969, 70 or 71 not sure). I would run around in the back seat from end to end and bounce around. I think I remember the car having some fins.



I think fins are due for a comeback . I'd love to see some on the new 2006/7 Imperial. The bigger the better.



Anyway, that new concept Imperial looks quite nice and 22" Alum. wheels!! Holly Smokes ... they look almost rediculous.

Good lord! You weren't restrained in a child safety seat and you survived?!?!?



Hallelujah! That's a miracle!



Anyway, that's a cool looking concept car, suicide doors and all, although it won't come close to having the interior room of that behemoth your folks had. I hope they produce the Challenger concept car.

Yea and there was even room for us to sleep up behind the back seat under the rear glass.

Yeah! My mom at least put us in a play pen in the back of her Country Squire station wagon! It was a '68 I think.
