Der 72er ist ja noch bisschen länger?

@@autoalfred Du meinst den 73er :) Der ist aufgrund der ab 73 vorgeschriebenen Gummiteile an der Stoßstange nochmal 15cm länger und damit der längste Wagen der USA. Der 72er hat die gleiche Länge wie der 70er, nur halb so viel Leistung xD

@@panzerdivisionsstrategieka8931 genau! 5,97m Der 72er ist genauso lang wie der 70er?

@@autoalfred ja :) 1970er ist gleichlang wie der 72er -> 5,83 und der 73er ist dann 5,97 wegen den Gummihörnern....

Ja, es sind Lincoln Felgen 😀

@@autoalfred ahhh, ja genau.. Dann geht es natürlich.Sonst könnte es manchmal quietschen, weil es sich nicht verträgt:)

Der Besitzer Christian fährt damit tatsächlich bisweilen in die Arbeit 😀 Man darf aber nicht vergessen, dass das auch in USA anno 1970 der Gipfel des Luxus war (gemeinsam mit Cadillac Fleetwood und Lincoln Continental)

Thank you

@@autoalfred As a 16 year old in 1978. I got my grandfather's 70 Imperial to drive. One night I decided to try out the lap and shoulder belts. I was amazed at how much better the car drove and handled with the belts buckled and I got in the habit of wearing them all the time. Four years later, a drunk driver in a Chevrolet suburban plowed head on into me. Because of the size of the car, what it was made of, and the fact that I was wearing both the lap and shoulder belts, I walked away with only bruises from the belts. The unbelted drunk had massive head and chest injuries. Five seconds to buckle up your lap and shoulder belts can make all the difference.

@@bradparris99 really? It drove better with seat belts?

@@autoalfred Yes it did. You really feel the car and don't have that marshmallow soft feel that those big cars have. There's a bit more of a performance feel. Back when these cars were new, if people would have just tried the belts a couple of times, I think more people would have buckled up than did. I knew that wearing a seat belt was the smart thing to do, but it was the better feeling and ride that got me in the habit of wearing them. Try the lap and shoulder belts in your car and I think you will be surprised. Now it does take a time or two to get used to them and wear them fairly snug.

But here I have the English version of the very same video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q556eJiAtruro58.html

Erstmal ein sehr schöner Imp👍Warum einige DE US Car Fahrer solch elegante Schiffe hinten hochheben müssen, habe ich nie verstanden. Sieht einfach sehr komisch aus, vor allem von hinten und beim Kurvenfahren.

Even most American car enthusiasts don't understand the nuance between "Imperial", "Chrysler Imperial" and "Imperial by Chrysler". All three were valid, but at various times in the nameplate's history. As I understand it, the 69-73 "fuselage" Imperials were the last generation marketed under the "Imperial" division of Chrysler Corp.
