WPC Club notes concerning 1957 Imperials


Imperial Home Page -> Imperials by Year -> 1957 -> WPC Club Notes

From Tony Lindsey:

The following are a few skimpy notes that I made in 1991 while indexing some back-issues of the WPC NEWS, the monthly newsmagazine of the The WPC (Walter P. Chrysler) Club, which is the largest Chrysler-Products club in the world. I strongly recommend that all Imperial owners belong to this club, for the sake of the classified ads and the club events. Back-issues may still be purchased for a small fee, and they are worth it. I particularly recommend buying any issues that mention "cover story" in the notes below. They will give you information about your car that you NEVER imagined was available.


There are 42 1957 Imperials listed in the 1989 WPC Club roster.


Cover issue (12 pages) Color cover of Coupe (1st color cover ever!) (WPC NEWS APR79)

Nice pix of a 4-dr hdtp p 26 (WPC NEWS JAN88)

4-door sedan p23 (WPC NEWS MAR81)

1956-1968 Imperials winning demolition derbies p28 (WPC NEWS AUG81)

Nice photo of front eagle ornament p30 (WPC NEWS JAN90)

Preventing rust on '57 Imperials (Importance of drain holes) p29 (WPC NEWS MAR87)

Styling & Aerodynamics (heavily biased toward tailfins) plenty of good-looking line art. 17 pages (WPC NEWS JAN90)
