Thanks for the welcome. The imperial was owned by Jimmy Carter while he was the governor or NC? I'm not 100% sure on the history. I am actually restoring the car for a friend in CA and he bought it a few months ago from NC and had it sent to me. He has documentation to prove the history, I have not seen it myself. Its blue with a blue top and white leather interior. Pretty solid car, but will need a roof skin. So I need to know what models interchange with the 72. Like maybe a newport or polara? Could use maybe a ps rear door. So looking foward to learning more info on them. I am a hardcore mopar guy also, own a 70 challenger and a 68 sport satellite. Plus in the family own at least 50 mopars. --- JIM LORENZEN <jdlpdx@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Welcome Joe - > > Fascinating history on your '72 Imperial.
