If I remember right, it was supposed to be a homage to the freestanding headlights of the 20's and 30's even though that really doesn't change the fact that they mounted them on a car that looked nothing like a car from the 20's and 30's. I don't hate them, but I don't love them either.

Location: DFW, TX		Exner was determined to get some classic-era styling cues into the production cars, especially the higher level Imperials.

After he left Chrysler, one of his pet projects was a series of "revival" design studies that took that idea to marques that were long gone. Google 'exner revival cars' for many more photos and details.

Location: Parts Unknown		Just don't garage your car around the NW and it will turn itself into a planter with
a couple seasons of rain and moss promoting cool temps.
