As I have said before, if you want to make a small fortune restoring a
classic car, you must start with a LARGE fortune, Classic cars are a calling, a
hobby, a sickness, but not an investment. My two cents, anyway.
That being said, I already own two non-Imperial MOPARS (one of which, the
wife says she wants GONE almost every day, and stay on this list for the info
that applies to my cars and Imperials, too, and in the hopes a 64 to 66 Imperial
might some day fall out of the sky and land in my driveway.

Could make and model have a bearing on this, or is it just the Imperials in
general? My car is one of only nine in the current Registry, and unless
I’m mistaken, might possibly be the only one like it. Certainly, there can’t
be too many. It’s a 1961 Crown 2dr. Coupe in Malibu Tan, and very, very,
restorable. I would love to see this car back to almost new condition, and I
think it would be a real pleasure to own and drive. BUT, I have serious
priorities, too, and I can’t risk doing something dumb. If I’m going to get
dramatically upside down on any car, with that knowledge going in, well, maybe
I should just let go of it and let someone else that doesn’t have my threshold
of pain put the funds into it?
Any thoughts out
there?

I don’t think
it’s that people are not interested in the cars for sale. Most people
are watching finances pretty close right now. The US Dollar is losing
ground against the Euro right now and the price of fuel is going through the
roof. Plus Winter is coming up quick (except for our Australia and New Zealand
friends). People are just weighing the importance of ‘wants’ vs.
‘needs’.

You're not alone. Nobody seems interested in my
64 LeBaron, either.

It appears there is no
interest in the two Imperials I had located…a 60 and 61 4 dr Southhamptons…and
that I had listed on this forum. Thus I have dropped that project
altogether. I had thought there would be people looking for Imperials
because they are so rarely seen, but apparently not at this time anyway.
Just wanted to let you-all know.
