I have not seen this model, but I remember ALL of the Imperials as very large cars.  At approx 12.5 inches the Ertl Dodge Charger Daytona is the longest car in my cabinet ... by a fin (OK ... wing.  whatever.), I imagine this good looking model is quite large.

Do the doors, hood or trunk open? What's it like in there?

Mike your car was truly the last of its kind............the end of the four door hardtop. Never to be seen again as the following year, ALL four doors from the big three were pillared sedans thanks to the safety Nazis. :(

She's a real beauty and I bet it was GREAT taking a road trip in that with all that comfort!

It was a great freeway car, Bill, but it got 10MPG with a tailwind, so we didn't take it much. I sold it on Ebay around 7-8 years ago, I think it went to a suburb of Pittsburgh. The new owner was astounded at how rust free it was. I told him, "That's why you bought an AZ car - was there ever any doubt?"
