Chrysler Imperial Hubcap, 1964

01

Artifact Overview

Chrysler introduced Imperial as a model in 1926. From 1955 through 1975, it was a separate make. Imperial represented the very best of Chrysler Corporation's vehicles. Premium features like power brakes, power steering and power windows were standard equipment. Still, Imperial never quite managed to develop a distinct identity, in part because it never had a separate dealer network.
