NOT THE STRAIGHT JACKET!

["Tim Hulse" <thulse@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,
 Your a wise man. I surf e-bay all the time. As a matter of fact I almost
screwed up and made aoffer on another dream car of mine. 1966 Pontiac GP.
But then my mature 39 year old brain said just dump a few grand on that Hemi
and dont look back. Then my wife said I was going to end up alone yet. Ha HA
HA.... Better stay focused on this one. Thanks for dropping me a line. Oh
buy the way. Wore out the shop manual when it was being
re-upholstered......HMMMM imagine that.....

Tim

Tim,

If you have to go without your Imperial for a while, try doing what I always
do, and that is read the shop manual over and over. It will be just like
having your car there with you. I also find it very helpful to stay in touch
with this IML, and visit www.imperialclub.com as often as possible.

You should probably stay away from E-bay Motors since you will be very
vulnerable for a while. Try concentrating on cars that aren't for sale, at
least until you get your first credit card statement after you have begun
restoring your car <wink>.

knocking noise has gotten a little worse. Last time I didn't have it around
the house I about lost my mind trying to find something to do. I know my
wife will enjoy having me around (yah right).. I think I should just have
them do a complete rebuild since its going to be in there. They had told me
over the phone it would come back like knew. Factory colors and all. I know
some of you out there have that special car to so if you would please send
me pictures of your cars to get me through this period of my life I would
appreciate it allot. Lets hope it don't take to long or I may need a
