Maciek1 -->1973 Imperial

looks like the landau bars were an after market accessory

I am in the process of collecting information about the history of the car and the family that owned it. I have contact with them and receive surprising information. As soon as I collect the set (including old photos) I will share with you. Perhaps I have unraveled the mess of landau bars
 
In winter, while waiting for the car, I collected accessories for it. in Poland I found cassettes (the car radio works, receives FM, plays cassettes) and I found MOPAR brochures from 1972 and 1973

Those items are called 8-track tapes. Cassettes are smaller and have 2 holes in them for the drive and take up gears, like this:

Lego Technic - hubcups Imperial set ;-)

It took about 6 hours to disassemble, clean and assemble four hubcaps. A lot of work but the effect is worth it :)

There was a problem with charging current by the alternator. The power ran out while driving. A car started by cables and another car reached the garage. In my city, I found an old workshop that regenerates alternators. Now it's like new. The car runs: D
