Before our '65 Crown convertible went to the
restoration shop to begin the lengthy frame-off she is undergoing, I did drive
her some. Once when I came by my house for a "pit stop" and to get a cold
drink a fellow stopped and asked what year Lincoln I had. He was looking
at the trunk when he asked the question and happened to see the letters
I-M-P-E-R-I-A-L around the hump in the trunk. I said, "It's an Imperial"
to which he replied, "I didn't know LIncoln had a model named
Imperial!!!! I kid you not! I suppose the spare tire bulge in the
deck lid "proved" to him that is was indeed a Lincoln regardless of what I
said. Go figure!

together nicely!)
