Re: IML: 1966 Chrysler : Imperial Limousine Possibly Built in Spain



Thanks for the information Mark, this seems to confirm what I thought. Once again the content of the OIC was underestimated, only this time by loyal little old me. I even wrote a note to myself to dig for that book and find the information, while it was only a mouse click away, right here.

Chris Hawkins detailed the Spanish-built Imperials a few years ago here: 
  http://www.imperialclub.org/Yr/1965/Limo/NonGhias.htm ;
 
According to sources, Barreiros of Spain turned out 10 of these beauties. All were 1965 models fitted with 1966 grilles. None were brought to the US by Chrysler. And, indeed, Franco was delivered one of these. The dash and gear selectors were give-aways. 
 
The Ghia Limos have an interesting story laid out by Special Interest Autos back in the 70's. Here's a link to that article:
