After a 2nd look at all the picz I think you're right. but brown iz almost az bad az Maroon. I've only seen an ad pix of the White on White Imperial like that one in the video but if it were white on white it would have me plotting and planing, even if it does have a worthless hole in the roof, Jer
I sold my extra set of those Snowflakes to the scrap dealer for $25 each after I sold the Batwagon. Search for a pic of that Beast and you'll know why I had 'um in my stash, Jer
I remember seeing many pics of that lovely beastie, enjoyed lookin' at all of 'em.

I already have lots of stupid ideas about this one ($800 price tag hits me in my weakest spot), I do agree it's a good thing it's so far away. That interior just kills me, color would make little difference at that price...
Pics for posterity...
Same here... I've always had a desire for one. A friend had a blue Sinatra edition that I really liked. Finding the right one crosses my mind every once in a while.
I did see a white one for sale at a local show last year, but it was obviously a rusty upstate New York car that was run hard and put away wet.

That is the coolest (and probably rarest) radio option as well. I'm sure the EFI and the radio will get chucked in the trash.
Interesting thing about those wheel centerz for those Snowflakez. They came in Red, Clear W/ Imperial Branded into the plastic Pentastar , and just clear plastic. When I went chasing for the now NS1 wheel centerz in the mid '90s, I wound up with 5 NOS clear plastic Pentastars from all over the country and with my conversion to '76-7-8 C-body discs on the front I had to have Four 1/2" thick aluminum spacers machined out so those centerz would seat on the caliperz. Just one of those insignificant bitz of KAH-KA the we're all full of and the cheap spacerz that Jeg's and Summit sell I wouldn't hang on ah kiddy wagon, Jer

I'm glad it's far away, that's all I can say.

That tan gut would look good with black exterior.

Suitable for Sammy Davis Jr. perhaps, but Frank Sinatra? Never.

Well the add is down so hopefully its in good hands and will be restored! I like that ginger interior, its rare! It looks good with black walls and snow flake wheels to! Thanks cantflip for posting the pictures, I missed the add , The asking price was $800.00? It has the 82 83 clear centers, I like my red 81 centers better! I still would like the support plate for my 81 Frank sun roof , the only two options available in 81! Any body know the production numbers for my car. I figure maybe 50?

50,000 made and I like 8" white walls.......
This Imperial is not a J body. Chrysler referred to it as a "Y" body.

That's the car line there is no Y body.
Imperials are always Ys. A Barracuda is a B for it's car line, it's not a B body, A or E, but not a B body.
