New Subscriber(s): George & georgia Merrick Email Address is: ramv10@xxxxxxxx Member Location: Central Oregon Car(s) owned: Many 55 through 72 and some parts cars and lots of parts. Self-Introduction: I have always admired the Imperials and have owned many since the '60's. The 1955 is my favorite with 56 a close 2nd. As the days fly by and I get slower and health problems abound I have been finding good homes for most of my collection. I am in the slow process of refurbishing a 55 2ht, emerald green w/a white top. I purchased this car in '71 and has sat for 30 years. Shame on me! It is now freshly painted, the engine & trans. removed and detailed with new paint and been reinstalled. Bumpers being rechromed. Now it has to be all put back to- gether. My wife Georgia did most of the taking apart as I was unable to last fall. She is a lovely lady and a real trooper. I know a number of you already and look forward to making a lot of new IMPERIAL friends. I am somewhat of a loner and not a big participant with functions and probably thought of as not very friendly or arrogant , but that is not the intention, It is my problem and I wish it were different.
