The Imperial Limo's were built for Chrysler by Stageway Coaches out of Fort Smith, Arkansas when the Imperials went to unit body construction. This company was used from 1967 to 1970 and built all cars on a 163" wheelbase. They weighed in at 6300 to 6600 pounds and cost about the same price as these folks are asking for their opening bid. There may have been other companies that also custom built these cars, but this info came from the Encyclopedia of American Cars 1996 edition. The console intrigued me also, wondered to if there might be a bar in there too. Michael
