It may be the
only one in the world :-) They stopped putting Hemi's in Imperials
in 1958....

originally bought new in Tucson. It became part of an estate sale when the
owner passed away, a gentleman in Michigan bought it at auction near
Detroit, and as he lives in Tucson during the winter, he drove it back there. .
Last New Years Eve I had driven there in my 67 Electra 225. He saw it
parked and came into the nightclub to inquire who owned it, he then showed
me his Imperial....and even through the neglect I could see the potential(I did
not know what "potential" could cost in hard to find parts) I called him a month
later, and drove it to Palm Springs. While my Buick, although the same
age, in fairly easy to find parts for, getting some of those I mentioned
earlier, had been a budjet buster. She is looking beautiful though!
Just anxious to put her in my carport... wont fit in the garage.
Cheers!
