OK, those father-daughter pix remind me of the “old family photos” that appear in People magazine articles about survivors of…um, I’ll let you fill in the blanks. This one, in particular:
Her outfit has an unsettling, school-uniform vibe to me in spite of the bright colors.
Indeed. And while...
That is neat! Interesting, though, that the front seat looks more like one from a Newport than an Imperial. I wonder how much of a Mopar following there is in the Philippines.
As far as I can see, the latest online, present-tense references to ’72 Imperial (beer, that is) date from the mid-2010s. I’m guessing that it’s discontinued. Rats.
Reminds me of my late partner's tale of her first and last Toyota. It was bought new (late 60's or early 70's IIRC) based on the glowing review in Consumer Reports. Knobs came off, the engine sometimes stalled out - and the auto tranny wigged out and would only go in reverse. On a highway. In a...

And for this red bastardization, I can imagine a portrait of a clown and the text altered to read among other things, "He earns his ridicule."
What a lot of time and money thrown away to turn a vintage American land yacht into the world's biggest rocking horse. :(
More like rhinomegalic to my eyes!
I wish the Dodge Boys had marketed a Coronet-derived ute to battle the El Camino/Ranchero. They could have called it the Dodge Amigo (coincidentally, Amigo in Spanish means the same thing as "Dakota" in Sioux).
They did a decent job around the rear window...
:rofl:
Not to mention the passengers in all those damn self-driving Googlemobiles that supposedly will be taking over our highways!
PS/Edit: I wonder if any of my local booze outlets carry 72Imp. (Other varieties from the same brewery: yes.)
