Subject: IML: Can this '53 be
saved?
Hi, gang --
Seems like all the good cars
come out of the woodwork for good prices this time of year. 'Course,
I can't buy them all, as much as I'd like to. Today I saw an ad that didn't
even say "Imperial" in it and called anyway. Come to find out it's a '53
four-door Imperial. Don't know which one yet, but dying to find
out. I'm going to look at it this weekend.
The owner says she and
her husband previously restored a '38 Imperial which they took on their
honeymoon, and he drove the '53 to its current location in 1997.
Sadly, he died before he was able to restore it, and it's been sitting
outside since. She says it is complete and intact and has not
been wet on the inside.
I have been focusing on '90s and '60s
Imperials, so I don't know what to look for or look at. Any
suggestions on how to determine whether the '53 can be saved? What
questions should I ask? Is the price guide on the web site close
enough to use for
value?
Thanks,
David
