RE: IML: The exclusive Imperial

[richard burgess <lecrown60@xxxxxxxxx>]

I used to show my '60 LeBaron in all it's decrepit glory.  I had just as much pride showing it as if it had been fully restored.  All eyes were always on me when entering the show.  Likely because people couldn't believe someone might actually drive such a mess.  Local club members knew I had started with a car that had moss growing on it, an engine full of water, and a baked interior.  People are so curious about the '60 that it does not seem to matter much.  Lots of congrats to anyone who goes to the effort to keep these cars on the road.  As rare as they are condition does not matter to most who just enjoy seeing these cars.
