There is a fairly straight, original, dry, complete "black plate California" 1967 Imperial Convertible running on eBay at the moment. The price is under $3000 so far, and it is selling at no reserve, with less than 3 days to go. This is a fantastic deal, as far as I can see, and a much cheaper and easier way to get yourself into a 67 Convertible than what you are proposing. This was engineered by trained, professional, experienced automobile designers to be strong, durable and safe -( I know, I own an identical car and it is a delight on the road!) Take a look at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6181&item= 2400055976 for more information.
