Re: Imperial on a UHaul trailer

A photo for reference I suppose...I believe that was a 16 or 18 foot trailer. I don't remember.

Re: Show us your Imperial

That's a 60 I believe. Not bad! A little worse than my 61 in some areas, a little better in others.

Re: The restoration begins!

Here are some pictures! It's quite a mess as you can see. Also, can anyone decide my vin, I don't have a data tag so I was wondering if anyone could tell anything by this number.

The restoration begins!

This will be a very long running thread discussion the restoration of my 1961 Imperial Crown Southampton Hardtop (Mindy). If you aren't familiar with this car, visit page two of the "Where did you find your Imperial" thread. We are off to a slow start currently, but I've been collecting odds and end...

Re: Where did you find your Imperial?

That's a great looking 61 there! I really look forward to the restoration thread - maybe have two going, one in the interior section and another for the engine in the power train section. Is the engine in the car right now? Seems to be sitting very high as if you had already pulled it. I would love...

Re: Where did you find your Imperial?

I got my 61 on eBay...I had no intention in buying an Imperial. I stumbled across it and had never seen one before. I couldn't look away it was so beautiful. The impressive front end and massive fins were just too much. I gave it a month to consider before I bought it. In the end I paid $475 for it ...

Re: Show us your Imperial

Here is my 61 Imperial I've had just over a year now. Not a lot to see now, but someday she will shine again.
