Re: [Chrysler300] Mystery Image

Rich and all,

Here is a site that will answer your questions.  http://www.imperialclub.com/Rare/Phaetons/1950s/index.htm

I've been facilitated with these since a kid.  In 1956 I saw the LA car at the Pomona fair grounds with Richard Nixon (then Vice President) riding in it.  I've never forgotten that and have always had a secret desire to own one of these unique cars.

  Google says: See: 

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Imperial_Parade_Phaeton

  I remember reading that some of the older Parade Cars were updated with new
  sheet metal. I wonder if NYC still has them?

  Also, additional interesting commentary on the "Forward Look".
