RE: IML: Imperial Question?



The 300 Hurst was based on the 300, not the Imperial.  It's sad that they
can't check their facts before going to print.  The they being DC as well as
Road and Track.  

Much like D^2 responded, I've noticed that DC needs a history course on
their old products.  Mopar Magazine, published by DC, often has poor answers
to the questions in their tech section.  If it's not regarding a new Hemi
crate motor, or something else available in the current inventory, they are
worthless.  Ugh.

Subject: IML: Imperial Question?

Imperialists,
    Yesterday, I received a packet from Chrysler on the 300. It contained 
some kind of write up brochures done in conjunction with Road and Track and
Motor 
Trend magazines. The Road and Track pamphlet detailed the history of the 300

(I am getting to the Imperial part) When they got to the 1970 300-H (Hurst),

they said it was based on a Chrysler Imperial coupe. Now I am no expert but
in 
the books that I have read I don't recall any connection with that car being
a 
soaped up Imperial coupe. I have seen one of those cars in person and don't 
recall much if any resemblance beyond the corporate fuselage look. Can
anyone 
more knowledgeable clear this up for me?
Thanks,
Eric Rogers
