Hello everyone, For those of you who know that the Imperial has been eluding me here on Long Island, I FINALLY saw another one last night. Parked on the side of a 'used to be gas station', now used car lot is a nice '58. This really was a treat for me & when my boyfriend told me he found one locally, I immediately jumped up ready to go see her. For those of you who don't know, I've only seen one here on LI and that was 10 years ago - abandoned '63. Anyway - The car is in good condition. You can tell by the good old 'tap test' that she had her lower panels filled & was re-painted red with a black top. Still solid overall with a spot of rust here and there. She sits well but the reggie & inspection have been expired since '05 so she hasn't been driven since then. Some poor soul replaced the original dash console with - fuzzy lepoard print.............ouch! There also is plastic white balls hanging along the inside door trim and in other places as well. Upon opening the rear doors, a red light illuminated this beast & I really wanted to cry. It was like a Cheech & Chong pipe dream gone bad. I'm going to attempt a rescue. Why anyone would do this is beyond me & I'm sure the majority of you felt my pain when you read about the lepoard print. Yeah, I was really speechless. Fondly, Joy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
