This number may be correct, but I'd like to see some
documentation from the factory to back it up.  I've
seen a good number of '67 Imperials with dual air over
the years.  Obviously, I didn't bother to keep a list,
but 19 seems like an awfully low number.

And don't believe everything you read in print.  A
good example would be the bazillions of erroneous
references to the wire wheels used on '53-'56
Imperials (and other products) as Kelsey-Hayes wire
wheels, when in fact the wheels were made by Motor
Wheel.  I've seen this "fact" in many magazines
(including Collectible Automobile) and several
reference books as well, but it's still incorrect.

I don't mean to be argumentative, but I'd like to see
some documentation from a reliable source (which to me
would be something from the factory, not a magazine
article 35 years after the fact) to back up this
claim.
