plymouth-guy ◊ 2009-05-27 06:57	Sorry Roadmaster, I think the B-pillar you see is actually the driver because 1961 was the first year that Imps were offered in hardtop form ONLY. Both the Southamptons and LeBarons had nameplates on the fenders. This is vehicle is more likely the more "common" Southampton and not the upscale LeBaron.
