That's the Plainsman! Yes, it is wierd and wonderful! At that point, the world was still waiting to see some of the best that Mr Ex had to offer in the form of the '57 models.
Wow! Check out this 1955 Chrysler Ghia station wagon Concept Prototype! Anyone ever heard of or seen this car?
An Exner designed, Ghia produced, wierd wonderful station wagon.

Subject: Re: IML: No drive in's in NY
BTW, for those of you in the more benighted and seemingly drive-in-less areas, there is a trade group to which many operating drive-ins belong, and you can go there to look for a near-ish one to visit on your next imperial outing:
It's definitely a Northeast phenomenon (nicer summers?), as NY has 19 members, Ohio is champ with 27, and PA has 21, but California has just 5, and big ol' Texas has all of 3. Still, there are listings in 38 states, Canada and Puerto Rico - so if you really wanna go, you should be able to find a big screen pretty close (And they're more fun from the back row anyhow)!
enjoy!

Yep, there used to be one right near me in Riverhead. There is one about two hours north in Hyde Park. Nice trip up the Hudson Valley with some great mansions (Mills, Vanderbilt) You can go to the annual "last drive in" night when they close for the season and claim they won't be back next year every fall during leaf peeping season. OIC: That is where I found out the front seat in an '83 Imperial does, in fact, recline!
