Hello,

What do you think of the fact that I believe the
1974-75 Imperials and 76-78 where the best looking
cars of the 1970's

The styling combines Cadillac (the sled look) and
Lincoln (hideway lights and mark IV like grille)
elements and has a beautiful Duesenberg look at same
time, a kind of neoclassical style that was about to
become very popular in 1974....

I like other Imperials as well, like the fuselgae
look, but I am a seveties man and just like the
pillowed velour Imperials and New Yorkers.

I think no other car make has such a nice and
distinctive style as the Imperials, they're just so
''different''.

 

Thanks, Dirk/theNetherlands
