I like it despite the cracked leather and eclectic color choice.

This is close to me if anyone wants me to have a look at it. I've never seen in person. Price is a bit high for a "slab sided" Imperial so a few of my friend's have stated. I think it's fair priced, but I do like my big C body Mopars!

I’ve always had a soft spot for the C-body Mopars as well - I think this one presents well and is a fine example, but I agree with your friends, price is a little on the optimistic side (but I don’t think it’s crazy). My guess would be this car realistically sells around $8-10k Especially since there’s also a nice convertible version that was posted for a little bit more and in a better color combo.

For the record, 1957-1973 Imperials are D-bodies.

If I remember correctly the Imperials switched of from the D-body (body on frame) to the C-body (unit-body) in 67/68. So the 68's posted above should both be C-bodies. I did a quick search and that seems to be the consensus in the Mopar community as well: https://www.allpar.com/threads/imperial-y-body-or-c-body-or-d-body.237342/

I stand corrected, I believe your information is accurate, sorry if I mislead anyone. I always thought they were D-bodies and I shouldn't assume whatever information I find on the internet is authentic and correct!

Hey, no worries! I had to double check myself as well - its how we all learn (and yeah, unfortunately not all info online is reliable, I double checked a few places first before responding🙂). I always chalk it up to, "well hey, now I know better for future reference".
