Imperial ride comparision

["imperialman" <imperialman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for your help....I am starting  from the ground up (literally) with
new tires this spring.  Though a source of debate on this list , I am about
ninety percent sure I want  the replacement tires to be bias-belted.
 Then I will then replace the front shocks ,then the rear shocks  and
springs. Hopefully that will get me a ride and handling that I am a bit more
familiar with.

> Helper springs in the rear (over the shocks) can cause it to bounce in the
back. If the '60 is acting like it should, the car should track well, and
take corners every bit as well as the '67. The '67 is a much different car.
It should feel a bit tighter, and more silent. The cars did evolve in a
positive way over the years, but they all were good.
