1956 Imperial station wagon

photo no longer available

Chrysler's luxury brand never offered a station wagon. Car collector John Bradley fitted a 1956 Chrysler New Yorker with all the Imperial clips, trimming, badgning, lights, and interior. It has a 354 ci (5.8 l) V8 HEMI

Beautiful! But the CHRYSLER badging on the tailgate is wrong. Imperial was its own make in 1956.

The front bumper and parking lights look more like a Chrysler than an Imperial.
