Re: IML: AUTOWEEK/Hemmings



Hmmm--I saw and read that article in Hemming's with interest.  Being a '62 fan, I was dumbstruck by the negative comparison with a '60 and chose not to make an issue of it.  To each their own, I guess.

Don't be too surprised that IML folks have not noticed the article in Autoweek.  I say this because my 60 Imperial is on the cover of the July Hemmings Motor News with an accompanying article on 60 to 63 Imperials.  One person mentioned the article.  Two friends on the IML sent me  congratulatory notes and there may have been one other mention.  Of course, it is a really big deal for me.  I guess IML folks don't buy or subscribe to Hemmings.  I expected there would be quite of few reactions ranging from "Way to go!" to positive and/or negative opinions about the article to "How did you get your car on the cover?" and "Can I do that?" and "How?" etc.
 
I thought getting the word out about what great cars Imperials are would be of interest.  Ah well, I sure got a big kick out of it.

Did the article have a photo of the '57?

Hi'
 
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the article in AutoWeek magazine about Imperials. It was a column by the publisher, Rich Ceppos about the recent Orphan Car Show in Yspilanti, Michigan. He and other AutoWeek people judged the "Orphans of the Big Three" class and gave the trophy to ".....a showroom-perfect flesh-colored 1957 Imperial with only 12,000 original miles on it. It's big-finned optimism shouted  'Detroit at it's peak'  ".
