If you refer to the red upholstery in the 59 convert., no, it was re-done by
Wall and Eade's in Fresno. They did an excellent job. You'll find photos
of that same upholstery in the Collectible Automobile article on 57-59
Imperials a couple of year's back. We have a beautiful photo of the "cover
shot" of the car that didn't make publication, sigh. It's framed, enlarged
and gracing our home.
Owned by Richard Palmer of Richmond, CA, then and now.
