Self-Introduction: I was a member of the list before, and my car is
listed in the 60 section, decided to rejoin. Good to see you all again!
To recap about myself, I am 31, I bought my first Imperial in 1994 out
of a junkyard in Maryland. I kept it for 4 years in WV at my dads place.
the whole time no windshield or cover. Just an occasional tarp they'd
throw over it AFTER a big storm. I shipped it out here and found out the
body was trashed. Holes in the fenders big enough to throw a football
threw covered by a lot of bondo. I only had 2 of the body/frame mounts
left. I bought an old Le Baron body off of Kenyon Wills that was
stripped completely inside except seats and part of a dash and got
started swapping and redoing an Imperial. All the stuff I had was for an
Imperial custom, and the seam around the Le Baron window was bubbled,
soo.... Needless to say I now have an Imperial Hybrid. Now dont hate me
for that, I still love the Le Baron back windows, but it was an issue
with!
  time and money. I didn't have the cash to let someone res tore it for
me, and the money I did have was taken in the seats reupholstering,
engine and tranny rebuild, and the paint and body work(another story).
It is definitely an amateur restoration, but at least I can drive it and
I still get "thumbs-up", and smiles on the road.
