IML: '59 Imperial in Washington Times newspaper

[chrycordoba@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

This guy is an acqaintance who has unfortunately not shown any inclination to join the IML.  The car is fairly nice, if you can get past the '67 Imperial hood ornament; '57/'58 rear bumper and trunk lid; '60 tail lights, etc.  He needed to reupholster the seats, but instead of getting the NOS material, which is still available, he did them in some aftermarket vinyl.  Grrr!!!  He just wanted a flashy old Imperial that ran well and would get lots of looks, never mind that it isn't strictly correct.  He truly does love the car, so I guess that's really all that matters.
