Kenyon is absolutely correct. 1960 LeBarons have a suede headliner, either
perforated in Southamptons or solid in Sedans. They ALL have LeBaron designated
door panels, and the rear passengers have a robe rail that is fastened to the
back of the front seat.
I'm wondering if the same stange dealer that made your other Imperial into a
LeCrown made this one into a CrBaron! Check around the rest of the car,
Richard, maybe you will find the "special order" paperwork on this one too.
