The Grande' was the EX version, cloth center to the seats, bunch-a other stuff, probably Power Brakes, and A/C, 351C, had the FMX transmission, some people didn't like it, I had no problems with it, I think my brothers mach 1 had it too... It only lived to be 143K miles, (rust killed it) engine rebuild at 135K burned a case of 20W-50 a month of local driving..... I could smoke out anyone at will though... -------------- On the '69, a lot of people thought it was the best looking of the fastbacks.... And the back window louvers was an add on, a lota cars had them back in the later 70's..... cool looking at the time..... I guess the for-runner to those things people put in the front windows to try and keep the car cool...

Yah, Lego's are the best toy.... I figured they just Lego-clad some car, but it seems they came up with something quite unique in every way.... I think I really wanna know about that engine.... I think its a kind of steam engine, but with compressed air, to be plastic friendly.... ending up with an actual plastic "engine".

Wow, Carmine has a fleet! I came from a mostly GM Family, though dad did have a couple AMC Ramblers, as second cars that he mostly drove to work at GM Pontiac, MI. I do like several 60's and 70's Chrysler, Dodge, and Fords, though! So many still look much "cooler" to me than some of the newer, smaller, stranger-looking cars they are building now, I really question some styles! I'd really like to ride in one of the 60's Imperials, such a big, roomy car! I always liked the look of the Dart as well! Me, I drive a '13 GMC Sierra 1500 Pickup, absolutely love it, and my wife a '13 GMC Terrain. Wish I had a classic car, and a place to keep it. Maybe someday!

Carmine, I would have figured you'd have an "Elwood Engel" Imperial, as well. The Virgil Exner Imperials had some of the biggest, yet most graceful, fins ever put on a vehicle.
