Re: IML: 1960 Two Door Southampton w/No Other Designations



If it has wind up windows, it's a Custom. Power side windows were standard on the Crowns and Le Barons. Power vents were optional on all but standard only on Le Barons.

Mine has a bench seat with cloth interior and wind up windows. It appears to be a pretty strip down model.l No Air.

Your '60 must be a Custom Two Door Southampton.

The Crown model says CROWN in gold letters over the signature on each
front fender. There is also a gold crown mounted on each rear quarter
close to the tail light I have seen some Crown models without these
distinctions, but it was because the fenders were replaced, or the
letters/ornaments removed and the holes filled.

There were no LeBaron Two Door Southamptons.

All 1960 Imperial Customs had the same upholstery pattern. If the
original cloth was covered in crowns, w/ "leather grain" vinyl
bolsters, the car is a Custom. That is unless someone bought the seats
out of a Custom and put them in a different model. I've seen Customs
with Crown interiors, LeBarons with Custom interiors, Crowns with
Custom interiors, but they didn't come that way.

Other than the designations, the biggest difference between 1960
Customs and Crowns is the interior, and also the list of standard
equipment/options. LeBarons are well labeled, and easy to distinguish.

Thanks that clears that up. I must have been tired when I checked out
the
link. You are right about the models. I have a 60 Imperial that has no
badges
to speak of and only says Imperial on the front fender. Nothing to tell
what
model other that it is a two door ht.
