Self-Introduction: I've been viisiting the Imperial Online website on and off for the past few years and have found tons of valuable information about these vehicles, both statistically and informative from it's members.
In September 2005, I was looking at the classified section and found the car I had been searching for, just 400 miles away in Minnesota.
A 1972 2 door LeBaron. When the previous owner and me met, the condition of this car was in much better shape than I had anticipated, especially for being from a climate of snow and salted roads.
Needless to say I bought the car on the spot for a fair price and drove back towards Chicago without a hitch except a flat tire.
Eventhough the LeBaron was in good running condition, it was time for an engine overhaul. The car had clocked roughly 74000 miles on it before I got it, was leaking oil and a little tranny fluid. I made the decision to pull the motor and do a complete rebuild. Afterall, this car is 34 years old and it was time for some attention.
I plan on posting pic's in the near future on this site that will include the engine rebuild when all is completed.
I look forward to hearing from other Imperialists via e-mail, and hope to be able to make it to an Imperial gathering or two down the road.
That's all for now,
Tim
