I agree, the correct french grammar is "Le Baron" (proper noun) or "Le baron" which means "the baron". In the '57 Prestige catalog is annouced in capitals "THE IMPERIAL LE BARON the flagship etc..." but in the text is written in several places LeBaron !! On '57 side medallions : "Le Baron" !! That remains me DeSoto or De Soto, Stingray or Sting Ray , ooops, not Imperial related.. -- Philippe COURANT (Pau, France) Imperial 57 Crown convertible Buick 58 Roadmaster sedan - American Car Club de France (ACCF) : http://www.accf.com - Chrysler Imperial France : http://www.ifrance.com/c-i-f - Cadillac " Standard of Excellence " : http://www.ifrance.com/accf-cad - SportsCars : http://www.ifrance.com/accf-sprtcar
