The LH platforms pioneered the fabulous "Cab Forward" look. Produce from 1993 through 1998, they were
the hottest cars ever to be sold as family sedans. The debut of the 2nd generation in 1998 was totally
awesome. These cars were the Dodge Intrepid, Chrysler Concored, Chrysler LHS and the mighty Chrysler
300M. At the time nothing could touch them!
This amazing feat was accomplished 36 years earlier with the unavailing of Chrysler's' 1957 models. These
cars set the world on fire in 1957. At the time it was Design Chief Virgil M. Exner who shocked the entire
industry with a line of low, innovative, wedge-shaped automobiles, dramatized by soaring tail fins.
In case you ever wondered what the heck was Chrysler thinking when they produce the current Dodge
Charger, Click here to see what was proposed in 1999 by the dream team.

career at Chrysler, Gale's design talent and skillful leadership formed a cornerstone of the automaker's
product revival and ultimate survival.
