I almost hate to mention this, but since it has resurfaced,
didn't Chrysler Corporation once again add the name "Chrysler" to the Imperial
in 1971 or 1972? I seem to remember that this happened during the fuselage
years. In fact I remember seeing several Imperials back then that had this
nomenclature on the trunk lid.

anticipation of selling the museum's 1973 Imperial, I finally got around to
transfering its ownership into our name today. We have had the car since
mid 1998 but, lacking a signature on a form, I never bothered with pursuing
the procedure. However, today I did. While standing in front of
the clerk, I noticed the title said 'Chrysler' for make and 'Imp' for
model. It had been some time since I had completed the paperwork and I
must have accomodated the error at the time. I remarked on the eror to
the clerk. I wasn't even thinking of making an issue of it but she
seemed interested and asked what I would put in the space for model if the
make was changed. I replied, 'Le Baron,' without thinking that this,
too, had become a Chrysler name. She went off and checked with her
supervisor, just to see if it would be OK to make the change. They
conferred a while and checked the computer. Then, they took an extra
step and consulted an older reference book. This told them that if the
VIN number began with a "Y" the car should be listed as an Imperial. "C"
would denote Chrysler.

yourself.
