It's September 1973. William, the then 47-year-old son of Polish immigrants who settled near Detroit before the war, goes to LOCHMOOR CHRYSLER-PLYMOUTH, inc. 4 miles from his home. 18165 Mack DETROIT and picks up a new Imperial. (1970 photo gallery - Google photo) Probably around 1984, the family moves to southern California and the car remains in William's hands until his death. After our hero's death, his wife and her brother take care of the cars (in the garage, the photos also show a red Corvette C4; on the wall you can see a sign with the words parking only for Polish ). Looking for a successor to the Caprice Classic Wagon 1983 at the end of 2021, we come across its sale announcement. I did not believe that such cars exist and that I would be able to find a car in such a condition and with history. I quickly throw in a few photos. More photos will be available in a few weeks as we carry out the first repairs and service of the car. The condition of this car is a pefrect. Everything is in its place, each clip, plastic, the door closes with a click of a finger, the seals, as a new whole car is well-preserved, plus a lot of documents, bills, treasures in the trunk and these keys in a Chrysler case. The owner tried to make a few modifications: he installed the CB Phone (for which he had the appropriate license and permit), the caps from the Imperial `83, glued the gaps on the sides of the hood and the lid and installed fake hinges on the roof (surprisingly with the imperial logo - I couldn't find any info or to ori element)

from what I can identify, the cars in the showroom are 1968, such as the 1969 Imperial right in the middle
