Re: IML: Imperial 'Muscle'...??



My 75' imperial 2 door also weighs bout 5,000 lbs. I replaced it's 440 with a 440 interceptor from a 76' CHP car though. could go on and on, but regardless to say that I'm pushin about 450 ponies now, and I'd race a roadrunner or such any day! These cars are built sturdy enough to accomadate allot of muscle. :)

Hello

I would also like to have the the 0-60 times and top speed for the 1970 Imperial LeBaron 4 door.
I know that it only weights 5000 lbs, but what is a thousand pounds?

Thanks

Hi All!....some time back there were a few emails passd back-and-forth about the   0-60 and 1/4 mile times for our not-so-speedy Imperials. I can't seem to find   those emails and would appreciate it if anyone who has those times (with the   year Imperial that did them) I'd appreciate you emailing me a copy for my   records.   I know our 3-ton IMperials wre certainly no match for the 440   Roadrunners/Crargers/GTX's /etc of those times but I do remember some members   saying that the 35-100mph times were not alll that bad! (guess once you got that   6000lbs rolling the 440 did the rest!).  With all the current talk about the high dollars the "Muscle Cars' of the   60-70's are bringing in todays marketplace I often tell people who ask about the   car that since it has a
 440 engine and about 360HP I guess it might be   considered a "LUXURY" muscle car!!! If our IML member ever does get his Imperial   to hit the 200MPH  barrier I guess  (maybe!) we'll get a bit more 'respect'!!!  Anyway, if anyone has, and can email me those statistics (preferrably for my   1966) I'd be very grateful (dansgarage@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx).  ...If these stats are somewhere on the website (which is surely a possibility   given the SIZE of the iML site) please give me a hit as to WHERE!
