In my opinion one of the most beautiful cars designed and built anywhere in the world at any time.

The interior, too, is unbelievably gorgeous.

Piece of Artwork, literally, God Bless Virgil Exner. Now this is when Detroit used to build cars WE wanted, remember those days???

Gorgeous! I love all Imperials but you have an especially striking one!

Elegant with but muscular! I always loved the look of these Imperials.

Fantastic,rare car in beautiful condition..It looks like it was restored to totally stock specs... Good luck with the sale 👍👍👍

Decades later, this car's features are striking. I drive a 2011 MAYBACH 57s V12 6.0 liter and appreciate my 57s's unique styling and features. Only 39 of my 57s worldwide were ever built. A lot of the additional steel and chrome, in older vehicles such as the 55 Imperial gave more protection/safety from accidents than all the airbags in smaller modern vehicles have today.

Magnificent inside and out! Stunning, thanks for sharing with us...

As flashy and exciting as the '57 forward design was, this has a solidity and stateliness that makes it a true classic. With its beautiful details and workmanship, it surpass Lincoln and Caddy, IMO. In '64, Imperial returned to a more classic style, which I also love.

1955 331 is a fantastic engine , best flowing heads of the entire engine series. Really cool car.

Don't drive too fast ...Don't Never Forget you have to stop the beauty ..never ....When IT rains ....better stay at home .....the beauty is forever Young.....

Its Majestic Bro 👍

Absolutely stunning !!

Beautiful car. Amazing how much chrome was used in cars back then.

The 55 Imperial was unbelievably gorgeous, even better than the 56.

What a beautiful car. Thank you for showing us your car.

That's a real beauty! Nice property, too! Depending on which state you live in, you can often register that old tag as a personalized plate.

My childhood memories are in an Imperial, New Yorkers, and Buick Roadmasters! Lovely lifestyle that man enjoys 😉!

My grandfather had one just like this only in white, I myself have the 68, 73, and 1981 model imperials. The marque is wonderful, and weather hit or miss i still love them!

I was 15yo when this car was first on the market-I always thought it was a magnificent automobile-a friend of my mom had a 4-door sedan, black.

One our neighbors in the 50's- 60's had one of these Imperials. Was quite the talk among the grownups. We had a '57 Plymouth Fury at the time. Yeah.

Two-door Imperial! Sweet!

Dripping pure class!

What a car! Those taillights, the gas filler, that interior - really, really interesting details that set the Imperial apart. Thanks for sharing!

Many, many years ago there was one of these in the limousine form for sale in Texas!! I really wanted it as I think they are just elegant automobiles! Never got one but instead i ended up with a 1954 Cadillac 75 series limousine which served me very well for many years and got me into a lot of places like up at Hearst Castle, Chateau Carolands and other historic places over the years with passengers like Countess Tolstoy, Miss America Laura Kaeppler, Drew Carey, Sir Richard Taylor to name a few, and when I play the lottery and when I win, this will be at the top of my list of things to buy!! Congrats on owning this elegant automobile!!

Lovely, beautiful car! Thank you for sharing.

that is not a car, that is a work of art. I would almost b afraid to drive it. EXQUISITE!

Ahhhhhh. The era when car design was literally a work of art and unique. Loved it.

That is a REAL BEAUTY! They really knew how to style cars back in the day….for me the tail lights are the best aspect.

The classiest car of 1955 !

So beautiful. The proportions of the ‘55 were much better than the longer ‘56. That interior is unique. Never seen it before. And the engine is so quiet even without a pad under the hood. Wonderful vehicle. I’m so envious! Haha.

A real beauty . I like 55 the best too. Especially in black. Had one back 64. Friend had black one I worked for Chrysler so I knew him. Traveled for living. In 65 he brought it in and ask him if he was here for lube and oil. He said "No I had valves ground at 275k it's got 450k on it now, I guess I'm feeling a little guilty he said so I'm having it overhauled although it really doesn't need it. " Chrysler pioneered Super finish. Where they polished all internal engine parts tripling engine life. Yellow cab used to run the old toothy desotos. They wrote and article for classic cars back in 82 where they said they ran those old flat sixes 600k between overhauls and bodies 1.5 million miles. most people think Imperial was just a chrysler with different emblems, but actually back in 50 imperials got bigger frame and different front and rear axles and larger bolt pattern. The limo was even 5" wider. Inside front and rear wheel bearings were 3 inch timken roller bearings. The same as a one ton truck.

what a beautiful car. early mopars rule!

I'd stack this 55 Imperial up against most cars built later. It's just one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen. Spectacular vehicle!

WONDERFUL IMPRESSIVE CAR. I JUST SAW ONE IN SEVERAL EPISODES OF "Danger Man" ("Secret Agent") made in England in the 60's. Imperials mad a big impression in 60's London, where Rolls Royces were a dime a dozen.

She is a beauty! May you have endless hours of enjoyment with her. Please bring her to shows, the public would love this car!

Stunning Black over Red was so fetching through the 50’s.

Beautiful!

Dad got one for Mom in a salmon pink color with a white top. Push-button transmission so I reckon 1956. I remember being driven to Nursery School in it. Gorgeous car.

They looked way better then our modern clumsy SUVs !!

Beautiful two toned interior, bold, sharp.

Fabulous fabulous fabulous. Owned 2 55 De Soto's in NZ and the Auto on the dash was bliss. No park....

Handsome Car, I Love the Red and Black interior also.

Absolutely gorgeous, great lines ! And I love the taillights, a real classic.

Oh I know what you mean about late autumn warm days, we get them here in Syracuse NY , right next to the lake. Driving my 73 T- bird , nothing beats driving you're classic car on days like that. Unreal beautiful Imperial. Thank you

Very impressive all-around She's a Beauty.

The crowns are to remind you that you're King 👑

An Incredibly Beauuutiful Car!💕

Thank you for this great video on your beautiful Imperial. (All Chrysler and Imperial 2-doors were Newports.)

That car is a masterpiece

Nice car. My dad have a 1964 imperial for a short time in the mid 1970s . Sure wish I had it today.

WOW that's gorgeous and smooth! I know you're enjoying a true blast from the past. Regards from Thailand!

this is a masterpiece of car design

Dad had a black '55 New Yorker. Similar to the Imperial and they shared the dashboard. That dash had a feature unique to 1955. Stop the video at 4:48 - the stalk emerging from the dash to the right of the divided circular gauge cluster is the gear shift lever. Chrysler adopted the push button transmission starting in 1956.

She's a BEAUTY!

sublime ride

Lovely car

you are a very lucky man!!, sweet old Mopar, and a cabin by the lake.

It's a Black Beauty for sure. You are a lucky caretaker.

Wonderful Car, Treasure it, I’ve had quite a few Cadillacs. None were better than this ! My 1951 Caddy might come close, … UK Essex !

At 67 years old i never seen one Nice

Good looking 55 Imperial with all the right colors that makes the car extra special 55 Chrysler 300 borrowed the grille there was a Red one in our area i saw everyday

What a beauty. A true peace of art.

Super sweet....!!! Thanks for posting!

Thanks, great Classic…..& quick overviews …

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Back in the day it was interesting how all the auto makers integrated hidden fuel fillers

Such an AWESOME looking car.

A next-door neighbor had one, a '55 and black in color. The same neighbor later bought a Rolls and a Ferrari.

Love the Older Imperials

Beautiful Newport you have there! Especially that stunning interior. I hope you get many years of enjoyment out of that. I really want to find a '56 four-door some day.

I can’t say it’s under stated styling but one thing for sure it is beautiful. I would love to own one.

Je l'aî au 1/18 SIGNATURE DIE CAST model ...Crème toit or métallisé quelle auto prodigieuse .magnifique le premier 300 CV américain Heli Chrysler le plus puissant de 1954 sur la première Serie 300 C dont cette impériale NEWPORT est l'élégance et le luxe suprêmes ..JUST À MILESTONE car ...How happy you are one of a few....such a beauty....AMERICAN BEAUTY indeed....congratulations ...trully your

No air conditioner, but very few cars had them back then. Tom McCahill, who wrote for "Mechanix Illustrated" magazine, called the taillights "sparrow strainers." Beautiful car!

I'm in the process of restoring an identical Newport- colors and all. I envy your chrome- I'm just getting to that!

Beautiful car! worth every penny.

That tune playing fits right in.

Quite impressive! I'd like to know more about it. 👍

Beautiful car and place. Live in Florida now, but spent so much time in my in-laws cabin up in the whitefish lake chain!

Is it Mark,my close cousins name was Mark Anthony,we use to collect car pictures from life books in the 70s, This Car is a work of art , I had a 60s car' black , lots of chrome,love the look, they went backwards in some ways with car designs, you are fortunate Beautiful Car,

Beautiful car you have there. In pictures and videos, you dont really get a sense of just how big this car really is. It is really a big car.

GREAT RIDE!

I remember those things from when I was a kid. Beautiful car! The royalty of American cars. I remember when most cars said 'power steering' on the steering wheel, do the brakes say it too?

What a sweet ride bro.

Big and beautiful.

BEAUTIFUL GORGEOUS BLACK BEAUTY. GOTTA WIN THE BIG LOTTERY TO GET THIS BABY 👶. LOOKS MEAN WITH THOSE GANGSTER WHITEWALLS. LOVE THE FRONT END WITH ALL THAT CHROME

Beautiful car, man. Enjoy✌️😀

55 my BD. Beautiful car !

Open rear wheel wells, like the 1955 Buicks, which I also love.

I think Richard Carpenter from the CARPENTERS has one of these in his private car museum called "Yesterday Once More" in Newbury Park CA. He loves his MOPARS

A beautiful car.

She’s a beauty!

A very rare beauty

Nice retreat out back, nice Imperial too! 🤠👍

Beautiful car...I'm biased though we had a '56...my mother let me drive it on the driveway as a kid when I could reach the pedals. That car and a Willy's Overland (army surplus) were the vehicles I learned to drive on. I miss them both.

In Md you can fill out a form to display original license plates as long as the tags are the correct year for the vehicle and are Md tags. You still have to keep your standard issue “historic” or “street rod” tags in the vehicle though. And for Md, at least, you have to have both front and rear matching tags. Gets tricky from 71 forward as they switched to stickers. My 72 VW has a 71 stamped tag with stickers from 72-75. Had to carefully peel off 75-73... 😉. And my 50 F1 is a 48 stamped plate with a “50 tab”! Carry over of WW2 steel rationing.

My aunt purchased a C-300 that year. I'd borrow the car to supposedly shop for her. BUT I usually found a sucker who knew nothing about just how fast that car was.

A beautiful car!
