There were three cars originally built as 1952 models. Then, they were redone to modernize them to the 55/56 Imperial style. The New York car has always been in NYC. The LA car was repainted for a movie in the mid 80s (I made the missing letters for one side of the car as a favor to Chrysler Corporation as they had disappeared over the years). The Detroit car was in the Paul Stern collection for many years in Manheim, Pennsylvania until it was sold by his estate in the earrly 80s. 3 cars built, 3 cars survive -- That's an Imperial for you!
