Quote Two 1966 Chrysler Imperial Crown's were modified by Dean Jeffries and used
on the TV show "The Green Hornet" starring Van Williams and Bruce Lee. One is currently in the Petersen Museum,
the other is privately owned.

The car is called "Black Beauty".

Is it me or does the new Chrysler 300 look exactly like Black Beauty?

And if I'm not mistaken(which I'm pretty sure I'm not this time), Imperial was a separate make from Chrysler throughout the 1960's.

Again, no "Chrysler Imperial", but a genuine Imperial.

Unknown role?? The car got third billing!

"Another challenge for the Green Hornet, his aide Kato, and their rolling arsenal, the Black Beauty..."

This is a 5-star vehicle.

Barris had absolutely ZILCH to do with the creation of this car. He bought one long after the show ended and turned it into a travesty of Jeffries' design.

I took this photo of a freshly washed Black Beauty in the mid 90's at the Gilmore Museum in Hickory Corners, MI

i would like to ask...

the green hornet owned two cars. one we all knew well that it was the Black Beauty. the other one, an ordinary car, used at his normal time. it was a white sedan (or convertible i am not sure). could you tell me the make of that car?
