    This is a great Imperial history video. I own a '65 Crown Coupe that is black on black with leather bucket seats and a Claro walnut dash and trim. After 1966 the Imperial shared the same frame with the New Yorker. I believe Jay Leno owns a '67 Imperial.

    It doesn’t lower when the engine’s off because it has conventional and hydraulic suspension. It’s not easier to get out of a lower car, quite the opposite. Load it up and it will self level.

    I have a '65 T-Bird. The swing away wheel is nice, but be advised that the steering column mounted gear selector eventually gets out of whack because of this feature. You know it's a '60's era T-Bird because you have to move the selector from Park a little in order to start the car. This problem can be fixed, though. Thanks for the great video.

    My Dad had a '61 T-Bird convert. It came from the factory white with a BLK top and interior, and as I recall, it did not have the swing-away wheel. He was always toying with the top, it had issues; this was in the early 60s.

    I've been aware of the Dodge Magnum since they came out when I was in high school and never anywhere ever did I read or hear that those clear headlight covers retracted,,, I assume they were fixed,,, that is friggin amazing !! A small correction,, the swing away steering was not a Thunderbird exclusive. I had a 64' Galaxie that had it so it was available on models other than Thunderbirds... Excellent video, thanks for posting !!
