Just so that everyone knows, there are volunteers in the club that will scan printed material for free, post them to the site, and mail your item back to you. All of the stuff that you see on the site was donated and is 100% volunteer driven. Only cost to donate is outbound USPS postage, and you can use Media Mail rate, which hovers just above $0.00. UPS will insure and give tracking numbers if it's something exotic that you just really want to be certain about, but Media Mail has yet to zap me after mailing a ton of stuff. If you want to scan stuff yourself, please contact us for correct settings, as the site's got its standards to maintain.....
If you come across anything that isn't on the site, won't you please pitch in and make it a better place for others with similar afflictions?
Feel free to email me off-list at imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx and I'll get you hooked up.
List: Do you have anything like operators manuals that isn't up yet? WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! 1981-1994 are especially light.

Hey everybody,
I was just going through some old magazines and I found one that might interest the list. I knew some things about Exner ahead of time when we had the Exner interview (I don't remember who did it, but it was really good), and it turned out to be from an article in the July 2002 Car Collector. The one with the "Farewell to Plymouth." : (
Some things I learned: First of all Virgil Sr. loved black cars with red interiors, just like my Dad. Second of all he had a Studebaker Indy racecar from '32 that they raced and drove on the street for years. They drove that Chrysler 500 show car as a personal car. He generally drove 300s or Imperials as his personal cars and a '63 Custom Imperial 4 door hardtop was the final example of his own design that he drove.
There are 4 pages. The main article is "Designer's Choice: The Cars Virgil Exner Drove." There is a small insert about Virgi
l Jr and a page about the Studebaker Indy car. The article is based heavily on interviews with Virgil Jr. I can scan it if you want a copy for the site or anybody wants, but remember, I'm an attorney and I'm not so sure about the copyright on this article ;) Don't expect it quick because I am notoriously slow and don't have my own scanner.
Let me know, Rob
