Could you e-mail some pictures I would like to see a 1929 Imperial? I have
a 1982 that belong to my Dad and parts for it are had to find I can't
imagine looking for parts for a 1929 Imperial.

Nigel,
Not only do you have a wonderful example of an Imperial automobile, but you
are also a very wise man.
I think that anyone would be safe in being specific about that.
