There's a guy in Oz that makes ropo's of the lenses, that you can't tell
apart from the real things. I,ve used him for my 4 Imperials 58 & three 62's
Great quality & been sitting in the Sun for three years & no sign of
damage yet. georgelaurie@xxxxxxxxxxx The guys

> Car(s) owned: I am buying a 1962 Crown coupe. It is
tan,(not sure what the color is called) with an almost copper colored interior
(not sure what the color is called either) and tan leather
seats.

> Self-Introduction: This is my first classic car. I love
Virgil Exnerâs beautiful Forward Look cars, and while 1962 was not a year
designed by Exner, a lot of his influence shows up in the 1962 Imperial.
I think the mini fins, "gun sight" taillights, and "lollipop" headlights of
the 1962 Imperial make it one of the coolest cars ever built. I came
across an older gentleman with a 1962 Imperial coupe covered in dust sitting
in his garage. He was willing to sell it.

> I don't
know how to work on cars (yet), so I was extremely fortunate that I found an
Imperial with a straight body and in running condition. So far, the only
thing wrong with the car is there is a small dent on the passenger side above
the headlight. A local body shop said they could fix it, but where do I
find a new turn signal lens and possibly the chrome trim above the turn signal
lens? The car has been sitting in a garage for years and it needs new
tires. What size radials fit on a 1962 Imperial?

> Iâve
found the Imperial Clubâs website extremely helpful for doing research, and it
has played a major factor in my deciding to purchase the car. With the
help of the extensive information posted on the site, and the mailing list, I
hope to restore the car, keeping it stock, so that it can be a big, beautiful
highway cruiser once again.
