1926 Chrysler Imperial
In 1926, Walter P. Chrysler decided to compete with North American marques Cadillac, Lincoln, Packard, Pierce Arrow, Studebaker, Cord, and Duesenberg in the luxury car field. Introduced in 1926, the Imperial was the top-of-the-line Chrysler vehicle for much of its history. Models were produced with the Chrysler name until 1954, and again from 1990 to 1993.
Chrysler offered a variety of body styles: a two/four-passenger roadster (four passenger if car had the rumble seat), a four-seat coupé, five-passenger sedan and phaeton, and a seven-passenger top-of-the-line limousine. The limo had a glass partition between the front and rear passenger compartments seating surfaces.
The car set a transcontinental speed record in the year it was introduced, driving more than 6,500 miles (10,460 km) in the week and was chosen as the pace car for the 1926 Indianapolis 500.
U.S. Route 66 or U.S. Highway 66 (US 66 or Route 66), also known as the Will Rogers Highway, the Main Street of America or the Mother Road, was one of the original highways in the U.S. Highway System. US 66 was established on November 11, 1926, with road signs erected the following year.
On May 1, 1926, Ford Motor Company became one of the first companies in America to adopt a five-day, 40-hour week for workers in its automotive factories; it wasn't until the following August that this policy included office workers.
