I am selling my Imperials, a pair of Crowns, a Southampton and a sedan. They are nearly finished and can be bought as they are or wait for some finishing. Here are photos of them, if interested let me know and I can give you all the particulars.

It is a rare chance to get a pair that already have ALL the hard expensive stuff done! This alone is worth a lot!

Easy. I am 84 in very poor health. Will never be able to enjoy them.

I have some spare newly chromed parts as well, here are some photos of the type parts (The ones I am selling are still wrapped in paper from the chrome shop)

I have put them in the latest issue of Antique Automobile Club classified section, will see if there is any interest. Looking like I may have to pay someone to haul them off!

The near total lack of interest in these is appalling! The Antique Automobile Club ad produced a total of zero serious buyer types, what a waste. I am about to try the Bring A Trailer auction with no reserve or just EBay them. Not trying to make a profit, just enough old tightwad in me to try to get part of restoration cost back if possible.

That's been the challenge with Imperials from what I've noticed. They just don't bring the high dollar amounts like a Cadillac or something. They are really amazing cars though, so if you are into buying, you can buy a lot of car for the price, but if you are trying to sell, it's usually not very pleasant.

Definitely post the links here if you do put them up for sale, maybe drive a little extra traffic your way to push up the bids.
