1936 Chrysler Imperial Airflow. Initially, the Chrysler Imperial was introduced in 1926 as Chrysler's flagship vehicle for much of its history. It was based on extended-length platforms of the company's full-size cars and competed with the likes of rival Cadillac, Continental, Lincoln, Duesenberg, Pierce Arrow, Cord, and Packard.
Factory bodies included two- and four-door phaetons, the latter available as a dual-cowl model. The 384.8 in³ (6.3 L) engine was a derivative of the earlier L-series 60° V8 , but a dual venturi downdraft Stromberg carburetor , higher compression , and altered timing raised the power to 120 hp (89 kW).
The first and — at the time of the New York presentation, only — example made of the series, the J-101, was a LeBaron sweep panel dual cowl phaeton, finished in silver and black. [8] By the time the Great Depression hit in October 1929, the Duesenberg Company had only built some 200 cars.
