Your welcome Paul :)

And yes, it is a small world after all, I understand that your roots go back 
to the Netherlands ? :)

Gee Robert! Thanks for putting me in there with Dick, at least on the
'60 Imperial. I probably don't deserve it, but like you, I had done the
majority of work myself, back when I was driving Imperials for regular
transportation, and no one else would/could work on them. Experience is
the best teacher.

Funny thing about Dick, he remember's my Uncle Tony who owned a couple
GULF gas stations in New Jersey in the 1950's. Dick's father's company
did business with my uncle, and my uncle let Dick use the lift to work
on his cars! Talk about a small world!

Well spoken Jack!



I really fully agree with you, imagine my case: I live in a foreign
country (the Netherlands) far away from you US guys.

Nobody in my country have ever seen a 60 Imperial before or understand
them, and since I do all the work on my car myself Dick's words of
whisdom are a gift from heaven!



His hints and tips (together with the other outstanding expert on 60
Imperials: Paul Wentink) and all the other helpfull guys on the list
keep my Imperial in fine condition.

I am really proud to be one of " the list" and I am sure it will only
be a temporarily leave with regard to that " unsubscribe" message of
Dick!



Robert

Fellow Imperialist's:



I have come to know Dick via this mystery of technology -to this
Polock it still is- and have had as a result many exchanges which were
heavily weighted in my favor, for he was giving away freely what the
finest of school's could never teach nor offer: life experience with
engineering long since forgotten or deemed as unnecessary by too
many. With today's youngsters now unwilling to learn by hand in this
want-it-now world, it was a dream to have a man of his character and
willingness 'behind' me; just another electrical impulse from
thousands of miles away sharing a love affair with old steel cars,
bound together through a common interest list as I undertook my first
Imperial [for the record, the 1956 Imperial is his favorite year], and
yet he treated me as if I grew up next door on his mountain, and
knowing he could be counted on for an intelligent answer to the most
minutiae of problems was/is gold in the bank and one of the main
reasons I persevered.



I am with Gary and would hope the Club Powers That Be politely
REFUSE this request and offer him "Member Emeritus" status on whatever
terms he desires......and if it is necessary Dick to leave, I already
miss your kilowatts of electrical wisdom and old car enthusiasm.......
