If ever there was a royal carriage fit for the for king and queen of outer space, this is it. So, sit back, relax and enjoy the JOYRIDE!

I get so tired of the insipid sameness of today's SUVs. This thing is a feast for the eyes.

@tombrown1898 Год назад

There was a twin to this car that moved around my hometown for decades. That mauve color is obscenely sensual!

When I was a child and we moved into our permanent home, our next-door neighbor had a brand new one of these babies! It looked like a space-ship coming and going out of it's driveway, to my childs' eye.

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, the colors in those days were amazing but worked 100%%%%, all that detail work on the roof etc.

Beautiful!!!!!! Rolling piece of art work....... 👍👍👍

@djplonghead5403 Месяц назад

Exactly. Apparently some of the model years had weird insurance or something because it could be considered jewelry with all the emblems, crowns, shields, etc. A true work of art.

Lovin' the stainless on the roof. Back when they actually knew what chrome, Nickle & gold plating were. Also when cars were made of steel & had PERSONALITY. Love also how the drivers seat is slightly taller than passenger seat. Details + craftmanship. Now everything is plastic, but they charge you as If it were stainless steel. LOL!

THE MIGHTY 1960 Chrysler Imperial with its perpetual grin of satisfaction as though just being an Imperial was enough

I am currently restoring my 60 Crown, thank you so much for this video! This gives me motivation to push on. Body and interior parts are not easy to find, much of them are ‘60 only. Mauve is such a rare and beautiful color for these!

Would love to see the 413 power plant under that long hood. They really built automobiles with style in the 50's and 60's.

@stevewilliams3850 3 года назад

Some time in the late 1980s, I saw a 1964 Imperial with this same color. God, it was beautiful. This is a beautiful car, but I like the 1964 best of all, then the 65 and 66.

@wildcat64100 3 года назад

Luxury cars truly reached their acme or nadir in 1959-60 depending on your point of view. The Imperial was so massive that it warped the space-time around it. Small cars passed the Imperial at their own risk of being sucked into it’s gravity well.

@jamesh7571 3 года назад

OMG what a beauty!! and the owners not to shabby either ☺☺😉

@SpockvsMcCoy 3 года назад

Many prefer the 1957 to 1959 Imperials but the 1960 Imperial is still my favorite. I wish 30 years ago that I could have afforded the running 1960 Imperial LeBaron offered to me then for $950.

@davekunz6359 3 года назад

My grandparents had one of these, though I think it was a lower trim level than Crown. My grandfather played the bass viol in the local symphony, and could put the whole thing in the trunk and close the lid! And my patriotic grandmother (a naturalized U.S. citizen) had an American flag on the power antenna. Apparently, to amuse infant me, she'd run the thing up and down just so I could see the flag moving! Such a cool car.

@kayeninetwo3585 3 года назад

Wow, kool! (I'm spelling cool with a "K" from now on) Thanks for featuring a car from Lincoln, Nebraska! I live there (here)! I'm pretty sure DeBrown Auto Sales isn't in business anymore, though. 1960 was a long time ago. Early 60's Chryslers were awesome, and the '60 Imperial almost looks a little Cadillac-y, at least in the front. The color is fantastic. In the late 50's - early '60's the American luxury makers were going all out in styling, and this Imperial is a testimony to that. Thanks for a great video!

@josephconsoli4128 2 года назад

It's basically a limousine. I think of bankers and statesmen when I see these. Cadillacs were just as big in '60, but much more conventional, while the Imperial was simply bedazzling decadence. One cool feature was the "Panelescent" dash lighting. It had an indirect luminescence that gave the appearance of a spaceship control panel at night. What would one expect from the "space-age" era!

@montymatilda 3 года назад

Oh my yes! I watched your teaser on this one and I was waiting for it to come out. It is top of the list of my favorite Imperials. You are so FUN! I am new to the channel so I have some binge watching to do, but I will look forward to your next video as well. Fantastic presentations. Bask in the glow of those rich roof panels of shimmering stainless. OMG! Thank you Charles.

@crist67mustang 3 года назад

Some apreciations: Steering wheel is like TV screen. This car is a Dodge with toxido. Tail lights are like those laser guns from Lost in Space serial. Cokor is dirty pink pearled metallic finishing. Trunk size is same hood size or similar. Chrysler designers in '50s thougt that 60s decade will keep rocket influences, but not. In 1961 they abandoned these aero-rare-shapes. ©1960/2020 opinions from me. Stgo CL 🇨🇱🇺🇸

@discerningmind 3 года назад

@@jimmywhite3922 Mauve was accidentally discovered in the later 1800's. As things went, it was a fashion and décor hit way back then. I'd say by the 1920's or so it became tired to look at until the 1980's when it was new again.

@tonytrotta9322 3 года назад

Nice 1960 Imperial. I bought a 1962 Imperial - Crown from a gentlemen in Lincoln. Nebraska in 1997 which I still have and it has the DeBrown Auto Sales emblem like yours. The gentlemen had a 1960 Imperial too that he sold and I never saw it. This could be it? Good luck with your car.

@2201Duluth 3 года назад

I love the front grille. It’s interesting that they changed the front, quite dramatically just for this one year. Then for 61 they went back to front grilles that resembled 57, 58, and 59.

@emjayay 3 года назад

I think this front end is very much like one on an Exner concept car. But the '61-63 front end had those insane free standing headlights. Four big chrome freestanding bullets sitting in areas carved out on each side of the grille.
