Talk:Chrysler Imperial

Merci! I remembered enough college French to get through the article, and also looked at some of the other pieces on the site. RivGuySC 04:14, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Moved this comment from the text of the article to the discussion page:

(User:Dpwkbw:Dpwkbw regarding 1934-1936 section:) --- Oops! --- No, it is most certainly not a 1934 Chrysler Imperial CL, as can be easily seen by the "prow", an abomination added to the 1935-7 models to make the front end more orthodox (ie, vertical) for the 1930's buying-public; its a 1935 or '36 Imperial CL; several websites have this same photo identically mislabeled; well composed article, otherwise; this is not to nit-pick, but rather to illustrate the principal attempt to enhance the Airflow's marketability.

Please feel free to improve the article or its images but placing comments within the article text is not the way to do this. Thanks. Rpvdk 14:13, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Imperials 1955 and newer to be split off and moved to 'Imperial' page[edit]

It has been suggested for a while now to merge the two separate Wikipedia articles. However, in order to keep the distinction between the Imperial marque and Chrysler Imperial, I plan in the near future on moving all infortmation and subsections dealing with 1955 and newer Imperials from the 'Chrysler Imperial' page to the 'Imperial' page. Within the 'Chrysler Imperial' page I will leave a clear marker to direct the reader to the 'Imperial' page for 1955 and newer models. Comments? Rockford1963 17:51, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seems pointless to me. As even you (I assume you are the author) notes: the seperation really never caught on. It was a distinction without a difference. It just means people have to click through somewhere and can't find all the relevant information in one place. Why? To prove that Rockford1963 is the ultimate master of Mopar trivia? I suggest re-merging it. (I've read car magazines for 40 years and never new this. I grew up in Detroit. It's just not a relevant fact. ) I suggest we consider re-merging —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.59.195.61 (talk) 15:25, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recirculation or fresh air?[edit]

Could someone please tell me how this statement:

Airtemp was more sophisticated and efficient than the complicated rival air conditioners of 1953. It recirculated, rather than merely cooled, the air inside the vehicle, and it was also the highest capacity unit available on an automobile.

can be compatible with this statement:

Since it relied on fresh air, and drew in sixty percent more of it than any contemporary system, Airtemp avoided the staleness associated with automotive air conditioning at the time.

Recirculation, as far as I understand, means circulating the same air that's already in the car. If Airtemp used more fresh air than contemporary rivals, then it recirculated less air than those systems.

The same paragraph, which is all based on one source, mentions ducts directing cool air toward the ceiling of the car. Perhaps the source means "circulated" instead of "recirculated". Would someone familiar with the source please check that?

When did the Imperial revert to a Chrysler model?[edit]

The book, "American Cars, 1960 to 1972", written by J. "Kelly" Flory, Jr., states that Chrysler Corporation returned the Imperial to model status under the Chrysler brand (in other words, it became once again the Chrysler Imperial, as it had been before the 1955 model year) for the 1971 model year. Various print ads of the early seventies, as well as references in the Chrysler (brand) sales brochures of that era, bear this out. With that in mind, it should be considered whether or not to move references to the 1971-75 Imperials to the Chrysler page on Wikipedia.

Orphaned references in Chrysler Imperial[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Chrysler Imperial's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
