I've seen a couple of situations just like that. One was at
the Chrysler Convention in Vernon, Ct. They always try to put the Imperials with
the C body, no matter how loud we protested. They gave the excuse that not
enough Imperials show up. We had 11 that day.
Another time was at Limerock Park in Ct. On
Memorial day weekend, they have an all Mopar show. I took my 60 Imperial &
was heading to the line to get to the show field & I see this kid behind me
jumping up & down , waiving his arms & yelling something. I stopped
& hes trying to waive me to the general parking area. When he gets close
enough, I hear him telling me its a Mopar only show, to park over there.I told
him that this happens to be the mother of all Mopars & he says
OH.

I had to pull teeth at the registration tent to get my '67
listed as a 1967 Imperial Imperial...they screwed up, I told them it was an
Imperial Crown. its sad when Mopar folk don't even know
Mopars...
Of course, Carlisle had us listed as "C" body Chryslers,
Imperial, All.
We need a nationwide campaign to raise awareness.
No wonder the marque tanked. Would anybody buy a car called a
General Motors Cadillac?
