Re: IML: My '64 Imperial Crown Coupe kit build.....

[<buickjef@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bruce,
As a matter of fact I do still have the fender skirts for the kit, something
I'm looking for though is a good back bumper for a Revell '62 Imperial 4 dr.
hardtop kit , it would be all I need to get a resto started on doing that
one up.
Let me know your snail mail addy and your skirts are on the way.
Have a great weekend,
Jeff
