That looks like one of those Russian GAZ Volga sedans that appear in many spy movies. I imagine this one is a 1960s model.

Yep, it's a Volga GAZ-21 ca.1960. The tip off is the white Lada 2100 in the background (Fiat 124 clone).

Well that's what the caption in the article I took it from sez but I believe it's mistaken. Mopars did not go to a single piece windshield until the 1953 MY, and if this shot of an Imperial Crown Limo is correctly labeled Imperials were no exception.
 
I believe it's a '53 or '54, can't tell which but I think it looks great..

Nope, I didn't look at "properties" before I answered. Somewhere in the back of my mind I had the notion that Chrysler (and Imperial) went to the one-piece windshield in 1952 while Dodges and Plymouths had a two-piecer until '53.
 
However, having now researched the 'Net I have discovered the error of my ways. The Chryslers (and Imperials) didn't get a one piece until 1953, according to brochures of those automobiles. So the photo has to be one of a 1953. I agree with you. The windshield is the "big" styling difference.

Any other ideas on that one?
 
I really don't know it was posted in a thread on another forum and know one knew there either.
