Re: IML: 1956 Imperial or Crown Imperial



Most likely it's neither.

If it's a 4-door sedan, seats six, and has no side windows aft of the doors,
it's an Imperial (there were no Custom or Crown trim levels in 1956).

If it's a 2-door or 4-door hardtop, it's also an Imperial.

If it seats 8 (with jump seats), has quarter windows behind the rear doors,
and is a limousine, it's a Crown Imperial.

For later years, Imperial Crown is the middle trim level (model) of the
standard-length car (or the lower trim level from 1964-66), and Crown
Imperial is a long-wheelbase limousine.

Hope this clears it up!
