Re: IML: Unusual Imperial Concept drawing found

[Mark McDonald <tomswift@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It definitely looks early 60's to me . . . although the taillights have 
a bit of mid-60's Cadillac feel to them.  The near-bubble top would 
place it late 50's, up to '62 as Bill Watson suggested . . . but the 
taillights remind me of a '64 Caddy (?).  A lot of these drawings from 
car magazines from that period took pieces of different cars and put 
them together.  I doubt this was ever truly considered as a real 
Imperial.  Maybe parts of it, but the overall concept, no, I don't 
think so.

It is a fascinating drawing and something to contemplate, though!
