Guest FourAces Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 The first pic is Sunset Blvd however the date is unknown. The tagline for the Imperial (on the billboard says) America's Most Carefully Built Car lol. The second pic is a kid stopped by the LAPD for racing in the Los Angeles River Bed 1958.

Guest CharliePS Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The car being advertised in the first photo is a 1960 Imperial LeBaron, so the photo must have been taken in late 1959 or 1960. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RA1 Posted April 6, 2012 Members Share Posted April 6, 2012 Charlie- You don't think that is a 1959 Imperial? Just wondering. Best regards, RA1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FourAces Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I think my folks had a 1960 Imperial back then. I was very young but remember how much room there was in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
