    1969 Imperial progress thread

    That is why they they had no road feel? Never driven a new Imperial have you? These cars had an ISOLATED ROAD FEEL. They had do to this because in the luxury car world of the 60's and 70's an absolute disconnect from the road was consider luxurious. Imperial had so much road feel in the early...

    NOT MINE Dodge Monaco 426 4speed !!!!!

    I may be getting on in age (78) but as I remember, the only engine option in the 1965 Dodge Monaco was a 413 360 hp. This was the standard engine in the 300L 66 would be a different story.

As we looked through the available selection - there was a 1964 1/2 Anniversary Chrysler 300 in the shop area. The...

    NOT MINE The definition of OVERPRICED: 1962 Chrysler 300 H $1,000,000Listed 24 weeks ago in Chaparral, NM

    What can I say? At 77 my eyes are not what they were in 1962 (I was 15) I would look for someone who can adjust those dual carbs. Incorrectly done -- this can be a bear on the street. As an aside, this should have been one of the lightest of the letter series as it is on the 122in wheel base. i...

    NOT MINE The definition of OVERPRICED: 1962 Chrysler 300 H $1,000,000Listed 24 weeks ago in Chaparral, NM

    It looked like it was missing some chrome letters on the rear deck. I think someone who had the time, money and expertise SHOULD save this beautiful relic of another time.

    Remember the Price is Right Program that Aired on TV in the 60's??

    The ridiculous part about the letter cars was that optioned correctly they were more than an Imperial. I also wonder what the lady who won would do the first time she put it to the floor at 40 mph? That is were the long rams developed there maximum torque. Nick on Nicks garage dynoed a 63 short...

    Dodge 880 questions and performance

    Several things 1) The name of the movie was "it's a Mad, Mad, Mad World." 2) I am old enough to remember these pre- 65 Mopars. If driven reasonably sanely (which most people do anyway) they were utterly reliable and great handling cars in stock form. For the observant members among you, my...
