IMPERIAL PALACE AUTO COLLECTION Y2K READY WITH NEW CALENDAR

6/16/1999

June 16, 1999
(LAS VEGAS, NV) - Automotive history meets the Millennium at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas and Biloxi.

Ready for distribution and filled with a dozen of the finest examples of vintage and collector cars is the Imperial Palace Antique and Classic Auto Collection Year 2000 calendar. The staff of the Auto Collection thought long and hard to come up with a stellar selection of vehicles to put their best foot forward for the Millennium calendar, offering a full-range of historic, classic and interesting cars.

From the earliest days of motoring comes a rare 1910 Buick truck, built in Flint, Michigan. This sturdy cargo hauler proved that when better trucks were built, Buick had built them. And be sure to catch that unusual 1908 Unic taxi, plus the 1905 Rapid bus!

From the "Classic" era, comes one of the most unusual vehicles in the form of a 1934 Brewster-Ford Town Car. Created to provide affordable elegance during the dark days of the depression, the Brewster Coach Building firm traced it roots back to the mid-19th century. This fine established compnay built many beautiful cars, and the example in the Imperial Palace Auto Collection is among one of the favorites of visitors. The calendar also features the sleek and handsome front-drive 1930 Ruxton, one of the most innovative cars ever produced in America.

Muscle car fans will be impressed with the mighty "Banana Yellow" 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee, equipped with the powerful 440-cid V-8 and a six-pack of triple two-barrel carbs to make this Mopar coupe get up and scoot.

Celebrity cars are also featured in the Imperial Palace Auto Collection's 2000 calendar, such as the 1955 Lincoln Capri owned by film legend Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley's last Cadillac, and the specially-ordered 1954 Chrysler New Yorker Deluxe sedan with a unique air filtration system built for Howard Hughes.

Other interesting cars in the calendar include a 1958 Edsel Pacer convertible, a 1940 Dodge military command car and a 1914 Detroit Electric roadster, all cars from the expansive Imperial Palace Antique and Classic Automobile Collection.

The Imperial Palace Antique and Classic Automobile Collection's 2000 calendar is available in the Collection's gift shops for just $4.00. The Imperial Palace Auto Collection is open from 9:30 A.M. to 11:30 P.M. seven days a week. Admission is just $6.95 for adults, $3.00 for seniors and children 12 and under, with children under three admitted free.
