RE: IML: body identification

["Rob P" <fristpenny@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think many Imperials are considered c-bodies.  Maybe the NYB era 
cars or late fuselage, but mostly I believe Imperials were d-bodies or 
y-bodies.

a-bodies are compacts: Dart/Valiant/Duster/Demon/64-69 Barracuda
b-bodies are intermediates: Satellite/Roadrunner/GTX/Charger/Coronet/Super 
Bee
  Late b: Cordoba/Magnum/75 Charger/circa 77 Fury & Monaco(that era Gran 
Fury was c body)
e-body: '70-up Barracuda/Challenger
c-body are full size: Newport/New Yorker/Monaco/Fury/etc
F/M/J body are Aspen/Volare and their progeny-(Diplomat etc.)
The 80's Imperials are J bodies like the same era Cordoba and Mirada 
although there is reason to consider them y bodies (vin designation)

Despite often seeming similar to the c-bodies, the Imperial was usually 
different enough to warrant a different designation D I believe.
