Rick,
I updated that page for you. In return, we all want
photos of your process of restoration on this baby! Going to be an incredible
car when you finish.
Jerry,
I saw your Imperial on EBay at one time. I wish I
had room for another car in my garage. I'm impressed with the Keller Era
Imperials since Kenyon shared a brochure with me. Maybe someday when the kids
get bigger :-)
You'll find the right owner for your car at some
point. Others will notice the car!

Imperials?
Jerry, sorry to hear you are having difficulty selling your
car. I should prob. do this off line to you directly, but will share with
the list. My 53 is finally coming along nicely, I drove it around town
aprox. 45 mi. or so, the car is a joy to drive. For a 51 yr old car it
is amazing! There are some really nice features built into this car,
especially when you consider it was 1953. There is a position on the light
sw that turns on an illuminating light for the ign sw. The R L N D on
the column are also light up at night! A trip odometer, Dimmer sw. for
the dash lights, as well as the obvious stuff, elec seats/windows.
I love driving it, call me a little kid, but it is a sweet ride for its
age. I am working on the body work, sanding, getting ready for
paint. Have all the chrome, short of the fr. bummer and grill
done. Will have around $1000.00 in re chroming. The stuff looks
good when done, like new. The seats, and door panels are done for the
upholstery, looks to be around $1000.00 or more when carpet and head liner are
done. Need a bit of work on the brakes, the only leak (of any type of
fluid) is the front pass. side wheel cylinder brake. Otherwise she is
road worthy! I will keep you posted w/more details
off-line! PS I need to update the web master for this site, as the
car on the 53 home page is my car. It is listed as "Leonard and Mary's
53 Crown" the light blue one.

Is there
any good alternative to Ebay? Has anyone done better on
craiglist? I only got scammers when I recently put my 53 on
Ebay. Thank
you. Jerr
