IML: have you seen this car



hi guys
at this time of writing our 57  4dr  crown  southampton  is in the shop  for front suspension work, i dread the phone  ringing ,it is usually the garage man asking for more parts, it reminds us of the MONEY PIT film.  we were hoping to get it back for christmas for a winter cruise but that looks highly unlikely now.
anyway i was pondering the history of this car , and why the parts are so worn out ,it has supposedly only done 48000mls  from new . A utah state inspection sticker  dated 1988 on the windshield  records  46500,  this could tally with what the salesman told me at the time of  purchase ; ie  that it was from an estate sale and had been stood for a few years , he said that the previous and only owner was deceased . i was curious  to know if anyone has ever seen this car  years  ago  when it was driving around UTAH  pre 88.
 
our car was formally owned by a  clair symes 1196S  300E
SALT LAKE CITY,   metallic bronze [code N ]   vin   C57  8222 ,  we brought the car from  classics and  more   in SLC  ,  we think  they over stated the condition  a bit ,sorry  make that  quite a bit  
kind regards

AND A MERRY CHRYSLERMAS  TO ALL !
