When I was a grocery boy at 16, we had a customer with a 1952 Buick with power windows, The windows ran on an electrical-hydraulic pump system. The owner said if the system had a leak, it would poor down onto the door sill and take the paint off. But, only 1 leak in 18 years.
I love seeing these videos of classic cars, because it helps put things into perspective. For example, I get to learn what was considered "luxury" back in the day.
Notice too, a vent beneath the dash on the driver's side, it served to cool his lap, GM had this feature well into the 1980's. Also available on the Imperial was a rear air conditioner, the vents were located on the rear window shelf. Flip both front and back on and you were in a meat locker in less than two minutes. My Granddad owned this car, I remember it well.
Imperial became its own make in 1955, adding model names in 1957! Imperial ended production in 1975, and then came back in 1981, '82 and '83! And then Chrysler came back out with the Imperial model in the early '90's! Some people don't know what they have or what they are selling, huh!
Just stunning ..Style beats the Caddilac all the way..I was there and still am here..My 1964 Chrysler Newport beige with Burgundy interior, another styling gem...always got comments on it...
Well Thank You For Your Videos.I think I can speak for everyone that watches your videos, that we appreciate all your hard work.I remember watching your videos when you had a couple hundred videos, & now you have more than 1000. Thanks Kyle
I took my drivers test in a 63 Crown four door in 67. Looking over the hood of this car was akin to that of an air craft carrier, because of its wide flat stance. The car was so huge I had to make a four point turn, but the lady passed me anyway saying "this is a big car for a drivers test!" Too cool... PS: The reviewer stepped on the brake before starting. No need back then....
Beautiful automobile! I would love to have one no matter the fuel millage. When I was a kid we had a Plymouth Valiant with a push button transmission.

Kyle, fantastic video. What a magnificent car! One thing I noticed, it appeared to be running quite hot according to the temp gauge. I remember my uncle having the same car except it was black. Very well made .
Really love these classic car reviews the most! Excellent video Kyle! I learned some new things and you did an excellent job giving a tour of the car like usual! Please do more classics!
Such a Beautiful car, and such a great review. I thought I should tell you that I have a 1965 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron, 4 door, vynl top. It also has the 413 cubic inche V8, leather interior with powered bench seat in the front and automatic windows, along with A/C. Cool story about it though, my grandpa bought it off of one of the ceo's that got chaufered around daily in it, my grandpa sold it and 20 years later my dad tracked it down and bought it back. Now its in my garage. Cheers!
Its a shame these cars never sold in any great numbers, especially when compared to Cadillac. It is such a treat when I do see one at a cruiser night during the summer months.
I had that same color '63 but in the 4 door crown model. Burgundy leather with auto pilot. I always thought the front of the car was ugly as sin, but the rest was nice. He didn't mention the huge storage compartments under the hinged front door arm rests.And speaking of doors, notice how thick those doors were, and the massive hinges to support the doors. Also notice how far back the radiator sits from the massive front bumper. This is why so many demolition derbys in the 70's and 80's banned the Imperial. You just couldn't ram an Imperial in the front and knock out the radiator, the most common method to disable a car. The Imperials had a distint advantage due to their stout construction. I have a 1966 Thunderbird currently, and while it's a large car, it seems svelte in comparison. As to the comment about oil dripping from the exhausts, that's just condensation, nothing to worry about. The knocking when the motor is revved could be.
Very slick styling. Very different from the '62 with the "gun sight" tail lights. I like both. I would suggest, in the future, to seek a late 50's DeSoto; another division of Chrysler Corporation. These were really sexy rides, available with swivel bucket seats.
1:57 - This had a gear-reduction starter, which was first used a year before this car was made! Classic sound indeed! 2:58 - What the horn actually sounded like!
I actually have a '64 dodge custom 880 that is based on the imperial line-up just after Desto went away after 63 it sure is nice to see one of the many 361 CI. or 383 CI. 413 CI. Mopars still humming down the road! thanks Kyle for the video!
I had the 4 door version of this. It was easily an 8 seater. All power and powerful. I love how you could lower it by let air out of the rear and turn the bolts in the front. I forgot the technical terms but you could raise and lift it on your own. Mine was pretty low. Scraped a lot. Loved it.
Not Chrysler Imperial, just Imperial. Also, Imperial became a separate Chrysler marque in 1955, not 1957. I just thought I ought to correct you on that.
it maybe only seems because germans aimed for high class cars since 1960/1970s and they sell them all over the world. But american luxury cars are just legendary, they never been so popular outside north america. Today you can find them also in bigger numbers also in middle east, eastern asia and eastern europe... Besides today's world is completely different than 50 years ago, freakin globalization in the last 25 years, everything mixed you know this bulshit
I have always been a fan of the Imperials. They were a bit offbeat so they did not attract the buyers that went to Cadillac and Lincoln. A real shame because they were great. I really like the 1972 Imperial. Kyle, I would be thrilled if you ever got the chance to do a review of a 1966-68 Olds Toronado or a 1967-69 Cadillac Eldorado. Regardless, just keep up the great work! From one of your many fans!
My dad had this same model/color Imperial. It also had the rare “Continental” trunk lid. I can still remember washing behind those headlights with my little hands.
it actually got better looking when Elwood Engle did the 64, I think the 64 to 66 Imperial is one of the best looking Imperials they made. My friends dad turned in his 62 Olds 98 for a new 66 white Imperial , but replaced it with a 69 Imperial Lebaron. he liked nice cars
Beautiful car, but this one either has a valve tap or loose engine mounts - I hear a lot of knocking that shouldn't be there during acceleration. Correct that and you'd have a real winner with this one. :o)
Great video! Love those old Mopars! '63, '64 and '65 Imperials are some of favourites, plus the classic '57 '58 and '59.... Not to mention the '57, '58, '59, '60 Chrysler 300's! Wouldn't mind to see a video on any of these cars, so get cracking! lol
Chrysler had hired Elwood Engel away from FORD where he had designed the 1961 Lincoln. He immediately took the horrible outdated fins off of Imperial in 63 & in 64 built a truly beautiful all new Imperial.
This is a '63 Imperial Crown as opposed to a "Chrysler Imperial." In the 1950s and 1960s Imperial was a separate division of the Chrysler Corporation. I do enjoy your reviews, Kyle-it's obvious that you're a car guy.
I love Imperials, sadly, they don't seem to come up too often. Most of them appear to just be family heirlooms owned by a select few people, they were heavy hitters in their heyday but now it seems no one really remembers them anymore, a faded marque. :(
I always wondered how you would clean and wax behind those headlights.... I think on some Imperials, the door armrest had a storage compartment underneath it. You flipped up the padded part to access it.
I've seen 2 examples of customers who were SO UPSET that Imperial's traditional gunsight taillights were eliminated in '63 that they convinced their dealerships to install leftover '62 taillights from the parts dept on top of these rear fenders. Both looked stupid. Styles change.
Chrysler always did something different.Awesome review Kyle! I don't know if you can do some short test drives back and forth on that driveway stretch.
Another thing I forgot - automatics and semi-automatics are easier to use which sort of gives them the feeling of "wimping out" of the full experience of the car. Automation is basically a computer doing it for you. Obviously this doesn't automatically mean everyone that drives automatics can't shift manuals and can't drive.
Dash is lit by electroluminencs-- no light bulbs.. BTW it's not Chrysler---it's an Imperial. I am a former Chrysler dealer. The company lost money on every one and kept production low on purpose. I used to have to beg the factory for them. In 1977 I could only get two! The cars were made in Ontario and every one was road tested.
my 2 favorite solo car video makers talking to each other is the is heaven? also id it possible you might do a Citroën or a car not sold in the us in the future?
At least you have Top Gear USA. And also, UK use imperial units aswell (miles, pounds) for distance, speed and torque (lb/ft) whereas the rest of Europe (where I live) uses metric units (meters for distance, km/h for speed, nm for torque). It would be a nice addition to this channel if Kyle starts using metric units for car dimensions, speed, nm for torque since not all of his viewers are from the US.
As usual, nice job, SaabKyle. Great detail and description. I'm a little confused on one thing. At 11:55 you are showing the map light/switch above the radio. A matching switch just on the left of that (visible at 11:45) seems to be marked "ANT" for antenna, but the antenna control was near the steering wheel at 12:00. So what is the switch to the left of the map light switch?
Where are the square, chrome shrouded, inlaid 'Crown' logo plates? These were usually found either on, or under the rear roof pillars, in the forwards of the upper rear body quarter panel? To my recollection, this designated a Crown model. For '63, the plates were at the extreme rear upper quarter by panels, just forwards and upwards of each tail lamp.
The "Chrysler" name appears NOWHERE on this car. Nor was it VINed or marketed as a Chrysler. The IMPERIAL was a separate , distinct make from Chrysler.
There is no horn button. The chrome ring sounds the horn. In some later cars, the horn was incorporated into the steering wheel. You would squeeze the wheel to make the horn ring out.
the sterring wheel is weird,does it?i don't seem to recognize the horn button,i only saw the chrome rod at the sterring wheel,i think it is connected to the horn button
@Brian Ross actually it was behind, Chrysler hired a new designer after their disastrous 1962 year. They hired the guy that did the 1961 Lincoln, Elwood Engel. The 63 received his touch up , and brought it a bit more mainstream
@@williamg2552 actually Cadillac was building a great car in those days. My Uncle traded in his 58 Imperial and went back to Cadillac in 1961. The 63 Imperial is a updated version before the all new 1964 Imperial came out, which I always considered the prettiest Imperial made, they did that look through 1966. Some people called it the "Lincolnized Imperial"
On the safety issue, you can't deny that today's superior technology has allowed us to engineer lightweight yet rigid space frames for the cars. We also have developed many new materials since the 60s and 70s. Don't also forget the much stricter crash test regulations. I think it's safe to say that current cars ARE much safer.
Interesting fact, when Imperials went to unibodies they were D-bodies, all Chryslers were C-bodies while the Dodge and Plymouths were all A, B or C-bodies.
As an american who drives stick, I've been wondering this question myself. my guess is the extreme popularity of trucks and suvs here in america; people didn't want a heavy truck clutch and just got use to driving automatics.
Am I going to be the first one to comment about all the carbon being burnt in the exhaust? You can see the black on the ground whenever he shows the rear of the car near the exhaust tips. Awesome car!
The rear air conditioner for this era of Imperial was more than just rear vents. There was an extra air handler which was located in the trunk. When you flipped on both front and back a/c's, you knew first hand what, so cold you could hang meat in there means.
Hey, I'm a longtime viewer and a big fan! I'd really like to see a review for the Honda Ridgeline, any of the models, preferably the EX-L for all the extra features. I'll be looking forward to this in the future. :)
Great video, Kyle! Sometime do you think you'll be able to do a video on a Mark IV Toyota Supra Turbo? The 1998 model is my favorite car and I would love to see one of your in depth tours about it. :)
The Imperial had power windows in 1963 ? Wow ! An amazing car, truly !
Aero7SVR They have had powered windows since 1940 think about that
Yes. They had it since 1941 since the Packard 180 series which was the first car ever in the world with Power Windows! :D
The 1955 Thunderbird also had Power Windows
When I was a grocery boy at 16, we had a customer with a 1952 Buick with power windows, The windows ran on an electrical-hydraulic pump system. The owner said if the system had a leak, it would poor down onto the door sill and take the paint off. But, only 1 leak in 18 years.

I absolutely love this car. This car and 1958 Plymouth fury (aka) christine and 1959 biscayne are my favorite cars ever
Love cars from this era, had so much class and character. They were literal works of art. Unlike today's cars
Imperial became its own make in 1955, adding model names in 1957! Imperial ended production in 1975, and then came back in 1981, '82 and '83! And then Chrysler came back out with the Imperial model in the early '90's! Some people don't know what they have or what they are selling, huh!

Quite a unique car, diggin that transmission setup with the push buttons!! One of the very few classics to have this
Well Thank You For Your Videos.I think I can speak for everyone that watches your videos, that we appreciate all your hard work.I remember watching your videos when you had a couple hundred videos, & now you have more than 1000. Thanks Kyle

Virgil Exner is one of my all time great American auto designers. What a dashboard, looks like something George Jetson would have driven.
Beautiful automobile! I would love to have one no matter the fuel millage.

That is one of the best looking interiors ever!
Imperial was its own brand starting in 1955.
Ryan Richards he actually states this fact but still calls it a Chrysler Imperial...WTF
Such a Beautiful car, and such a great review. I thought I should tell you that I have a 1965 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron, 4 door, vynl top.

Beautiful classy automobile. And all metal, love the space age feel. No cheap junk plastic like modern cars.

If only chrysler still made "amazingly crafted" vehicles
Wow I can't believe how modern It is! It was so ahead of its time!

When America ruled luxury cars...
and still rulling
+Uncle Trevor Seems like Germany has the upper hand nowadays.
it maybe only seems because germans aimed for high class cars since 1960/1970s and they sell them all over the world. But american luxury cars are just legendary, they never been so popular outside north america. Today you can find them also in bigger numbers also in middle east, eastern asia and eastern europe... Besides today's world is completely different than 50 years ago, freakin globalization in the last 25 years, everything mixed you know this bulshit
Uncle Trevor Truth, in my honest opinion Cadillac, Lincoln, and Chrysler have always ruled luxury. Til the end of time.
Uhm too bad packard went out of business so early... in 1958
I have always been a fan of the Imperials. They were a bit offbeat so they did not attract the buyers that went to Cadillac and Lincoln. A real shame because they were great. I really like the 1972 Imperial. Kyle, I would be thrilled if you ever got the chance to do a review of a 1966-68 Olds Toronado or a 1967-69 Cadillac Eldorado.

Great review Kyle. That place is a real gold mine full of the classics! Am I the only one who noticed this Imperial was starting to overheat?
My dad had this same model/color Imperial. It also had the rare “Continental” trunk lid. I can still remember washing behind those headlights with my little hands.
it actually got better looking when Elwood Engle did the 64, I think the 64 to 66 Imperial is one of the best looking Imperials they made. My friends dad turned in his 62 Olds 98 for a new 66 white Imperial , but replaced it with a 69 Imperial Lebaron.
he liked nice cars
Dad almost bought a 63 but a 64 ended up in the driveway after test drive in each. The 64 was such a better looking and driving car than the 63.
Hard to decide. Over the years, I've owned 5 63's and a 64 Crown Coupe.
Wow that interior looks awesome
Lovely to see, and have a good look around the whole car. If only it had been possible to go for a drive too. Thanks for a first class video
Beautiful car, but this one either has a valve tap or loose engine mounts - I hear a lot of knocking that shouldn't be there during acceleration. Correct that and you'd have a real winner with this one. :o)
Also, this Imperial had "electro-illuminescent" dash lighting. No bulbs, the thing just glowed blue green. Drive it at night and see!
Great video! Love those old Mopars!
'63, '64 and '65 Imperials are some of favourites, plus the classic '57 '58 and '59....
Not to mention the '57, '58, '59, '60 Chrysler 300's!
Wouldn't mind to see a video on any of these cars, so get cracking! lol
my present knowledge about cars....credit goes to kyle.....he focuses on minor features about a car too..
Chrysler had hired Elwood Engel away from FORD where he had designed the 1961 Lincoln. He immediately took the horrible outdated fins off of Imperial in 63 & in 64 built a truly beautiful all new Imperial.
The Doc found an interesting car I love these 60's cars so much innovation!

I really like Street Cars .... you always bring awesome cars from them ,keep doing GREAT reviews . Thanks From Saudi Arabia
The imperial letters are just sp awesome and the color is so gorgeous
I love Imperials, sadly, they don't seem to come up too often. Most of them appear to just be family heirlooms owned by a select few people, they were heavy hitters in their heyday but now it seems no one really remembers them anymore, a faded marque. :(
My dad owns a light blue 1962 Imperial!
I always wondered how you would clean and wax behind those headlights....
I think on some Imperials, the door armrest had a storage compartment underneath it. You flipped up the padded part to access it.
Don't listen to people.Keep doing these classics!
Show these kids the era of Real Cars.
I've seen 2 examples of customers who were SO UPSET that Imperial's traditional gunsight taillights were eliminated in '63 that they convinced their dealerships to install leftover '62 taillights from the parts dept on top of these rear fenders. Both looked stupid. Styles change.

Love the spare tire spot, mostly how cool it looks from the outside :)

It's wonderful you upload more frequently! :D Love the videos.
Intelligent and super-practical auto for 1963.
Really love american classics from those old days.
my 2 favorite solo car video makers talking to each other is the is heaven? also id it possible you might do a Citroën or a car not sold in the us in the future?
What is that knocking sound when you hit the gas? I heard in from the interior a little from the engine view and heard it well from the exhaust view.
A vehicle that seems way ahead of it's time.
I really love how she sounds, V8s are amazing! sadly they are so rare down here in Brazil! =/
At least you have Top Gear USA.
And also, UK use imperial units aswell (miles, pounds) for distance, speed and torque (lb/ft) whereas the rest of Europe (where I live) uses metric units (meters for distance, km/h for speed, nm for torque).

Mr Exner was a genius and a visionary. It's sad that people of the time didn't embrace his iconic and revolutionary designs.
Now you have to do 1968 Oldsmobile Toronado. With upgraded "x-style", those cars are just as interesting!
What a classic.
2:57 nice horn
Good Video. Have a great Memorial Day Kyle!!!
Hey Kyle , just a suggestion try to include the price of the car you are reviewing,thanks love your videos !
As usual, nice job, SaabKyle. Great detail and description. I'm a little confused on one thing. At 11:55 you are showing the map light/switch above the radio.

Great review! Great car, I would love one of these =)
The "Chrysler" name appears NOWHERE on this car. Nor was it VINed or marketed as a Chrysler. The IMPERIAL was a separate , distinct make from Chrysler.
But were the cars not built using Chrysler technology. I suppose he has to get the car in the video recognition.
@@bighands69 up though 1954, Imperial was a option model for Chrysler, that changed in 1955 and its came his own, model
His grandparents must have driven a Ford Lincoln...
There is no horn button. The chrome ring sounds the horn. In some later cars, the horn was incorporated into the steering wheel. You would squeeze the wheel to make the horn ring out.
this is one of my dream cars
mine is all the volvo !! :3
more the old ! 💖
beautiful and unique car
the sterring wheel is weird,does it?i don't seem to recognize the horn button,i only saw the chrome rod at the sterring wheel,i think it is connected to the horn button
Simply amazing that Cadillac outsold these... in my opinion, not even close
Cadillac always has been a very powerful company. At one time, they were really like the "Kings of the Road."
Cadillac cars were Amazing as well. A fully load buick would compete with them as well.
Superior advertising VS. a superior CAR . IMPERIAL OWNERS knew IT !!
@Brian Ross actually it was behind, Chrysler hired a new designer after their disastrous 1962 year. They hired the guy that did the 1961 Lincoln, Elwood Engel. The 63 received his touch up , and brought it a bit more mainstream

What's up with the knocking noise in the interior/rear while you revved it?
That is a beautiful car I like the year 1963 that was a good year for cars from 1963 back in time cars were classic❤
Awesome video!
he does variety, what does variety stand for toyou?

Hi Kyle, could you do a 1957 Chrysler review, I own one and they are the first muscle car, and are very beautiful!
Thanks! :)
Cool I want this car !
What is that "bumping" sound when you press the throttle?
Good one Kyle.
Interesting fact, when Imperials went to unibodies they were D-bodies, all Chryslers were C-bodies while the Dodge and Plymouths were all A, B or C-bodies.
I have 8 8pl8i. The only
Nice video Kyle like normal.Thats just wild that that car weighs as much as my old chevy half ton 4x4 ext cab.

I was wondering the same thing. It might be the exhaust pipe. Do you know Kyle?
is that oil that dropped out the tail pipe?
this car was ahead of its time long before panasonic ever was
Can you review a tank?? Please :)
Great video, Kyle! Sometime do you think you'll be able to do a video on a Mark IV Toyota Supra Turbo? The 1998 model is my favorite car and I would love to see one of your in depth tours about it. :)
What's up with the knocking when revving it?
i wonder what this thign looks like with the lights on interior and exterior, would look pretty sick by the options it had!
Really nice video :D hope you do more classics!!
