The 1963 Imperial models saw the split grille disappear again, replaced by a cluster of chromed rectangles, and the taillights were now inside the rear fenders, in ordinary fashion, for the first time. In addition, the designers redesigned the rooflines of the two-door hardtops, giving them a similar appearance to the four-door models. 1963 models were the last Virgil Exner-styled Imperials, however Elwood Engel began applying some of his own touches to them. While most critics of automobile styling rate the 1955 through 1959 Imperials highly, the styling in this period was more questionable, which was reflected in Exner's increasing struggles with the Chrysler president and board 14,121 cars were produced for 1963. Of those 14,121, only 749 Imperial coupes were built. This Imperial Lebaron is a wonderful example showing only 77,927 original miles on this California car. The Madison Gray Metallic paint on the car is in great condition with no major imperfections to be found. Both front and rear bumpers look great and appear to be original for the car. The rest of the stainless and chrome on the car looks good with no major dents or dings. Inside, the black interior is in very good condition and has been replaced sometime in the past. The seats look great with no wear to be found and appear to have been recovered sometime in the past. The carpet appears to have been replaced around the same time and is in very good condition. There dash does have a carpeted pad on it that looks great. The steering wheel is in good condition. Lights, blinkers, horn and wipers all work with no issues along with the emergency brake and release when you put the car into gear. Under the hood, the 413 Cu In V8 runs great and is very clean. Connected to the automatic transmission, the car drives down the road with no problems. This is a push button transmission and it functions as it should. In the trunk, you will find the original instructional stickers, full size radial spare tire and jack. The trunk is nicely carpeted and very solid. This is a wonderful hardtop Imperial that will need nothing to make it a great weekend toy or a wonderful addition to any collection. I wouldn't hesitate driving this car any distance. The current mileage shows 77,927 and the VIN number is 9333132780. The car is being sold on a clean California title where it has been for the last number of years.
