Anthony,
I'm sorry my 58, Mrs. Blueberry was not available
during your time in San Antonio. I have not spent much time with it
myself. I did see it this week. The company that has it is making
encouraging noises that they will finally re-install the restored engine and
transmission before summer. I quote, "There is light at the end of the
tunnel." My daily driver had a problem or two and I asked if they might be
able to get the Imperial running so I would have something to drive while it was
in the shop. Instead, they had me bring in my car and fixed it for
free.
So, obviously, I cannot complain. They
also made a $10,000.00 donation to the museum in December and are coming over
tomorrow with a heavy duty tow vehicle to collect our 1958 fire truck which has
proved a little troublesome and which we need for the upcoming parade
season.
I don't think it would be appropriate to go see the
58 right now. Its way at the back, behind the shop, at the very back end
of the enormous yard.
E-mail me off list for my phone
number.
Hugh
