They're called stock cars because they're not allowed to modify as much as... modified class. That's why it's called a stock class, because you're allowed "stock" cars only...
Imperial beat in derbys all the time, dont get me wrong prob the toughest car made. I run two demos a year and the same three imp come back every time but have not won it yet. If you know how to drive not that hard to take them out.
I drive a 63 Imperial 2 door every day. I have a coworker that keeps telling me he's gonna steal my car and derby it! that would be a 50,000 dollar derby car!
@derbypro08 there designed by the same guy both front an ass ends r the same only dif on the 2 cars is one has chrysler on it an the other has lincoln on it
Imperials up to 1966 are full frame instead of unibody. This makes the Imperial almost impossible to destroy (If you build them right). They banned them here in Indiana.
actually, yes, it was. The car was mostly stock with very few modifications. Thus making it a "stock" car. NOT your definition of a "stock car" like NASCAR. Go grab yourself a book and learn about how words can have more than one meaning...
well maybe u should specify your self there bud when u say stock that means the way it was when it came strait from the factory with all its STOCK parts

I believe the only other car that might take out the Imperial is the "Checker" cab

same here in kansas, but unibody cars such as a suicide door lincoln can run against an imperial, if built right.

@lanemclark Stock is a type of class for derbies. And yes that red imperial was stock, it has factory bumper, body, frame, etc.

What a waste of a beautiful imperial if only the fire department actually knew how to build a derby car, let alone and imperial.
