IML: Imperial in "Sin City"

[Mike Pittinaro <mechimike@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't recall seeing it on the IML yet, though that
could just be my 27-yer-old Alzheimer's setting in,
but there is what appears to my semi-trained eye a
1958 Imperial in the latest slash-em-up  flick "Sin
City", recently out in theatres.  I went to see it
last night, and while I certainly don't recommend it
for the faint of heart (or weak of stomach) there was
a pretty good sized scene about 1/2 way through where
Benicio del Toro is crusing with his "troups" (all 5
of them) in the Imperial.  I could barely make out the
grille, so not 100% on the year, but the tailights
definitely place it as a 57/58/59.  There's a toilet
seat deck lid (sorry, I mean "Flightsweep") and a
Landau roof.  Unfortunately, they refer to it as "The
Chrysler".  :(  That and a samurai prostiture slashes
a sword through the roof.  

Hey, you are forewarned.
