Yes, it is mine, Henry Hopkins, Richmond, Ca.
What calendar? Pleeeeeeeze tell me. That picture was taken over
two years ago at a car show in Half Moon Bay called Classics by the Sea on
the grounds of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. That is, if it's the pic I am
thinking of. I don't believe I've had another taken of that car for a
calendar. Would love to get my hands on one of the calendars.
What a wonderful, pleasant surprise. I have been waiting and wondering
if the pic would ever be used. The color is Capri Blue Poly, a correct
color offered for '61. Originally the car was maroon.
The front license plate frame says Peace Corps, Fiji
1 1968-69. Our group was the first group of Peace Corps
Volunteers in Fiji. I served as a teacher for two years. It was
a wonderful experience. It's rare that anyone notices the frame, only
happened once before at a Car Show.
Thanks for your post. Hope to hear more details
about the calendar and possibly where I can obtain one.
Henry Hopkins, 61/60

Subject: IML: 61 imp
convertible
My wife picked up a calendar featuring classic cars at a local shop
and for November it features a 1961 Imp Convertible, blue, that is
absolutely gorgeous. It is a Cal Car Lic. #WCT-656. There is a license
plate frame that says Peace Corp,Fiji -68-69.
Does it belong to anyone on the
list?
