Self-Introduction: Hello,my name is Michael and I just bought a 1961 Imperial convertable from a friend of my sister.I saw the car a couple of years ago and couldn't stop thinking about it,( it was so fugly it was cool ).I kept bugging my sister to see if they might sell it too me but they wouldn't, until now !!"Persistence is everything". They sold it to me for $4,500,a Honda Generator,my best WWII Rifle,and I have to be their working slave on their 500 acre ranch in the hills of Gonzalus calif.until the end of Jan.04.They kept the car on their property on the side of a hill where all the mice live,and hadn't driven it for a couple of years. I was suprised that it was in such O.K. condition and that it still ran well.It has one slightly ugly fender,and is missing one tail light lens and one hub cap and thats it.I think it's a real good from the ground up fixer uper and thats what I'm going to do!! Chow for Now
