Re: IML: Seeking Input on a Rich Cousin Car



Hola Jack

You are correct in saying this cars owner ( the dealership ) is well 
represented by its assigned seller.  The vehicle does look as if they broke out the 
roll of nickles when re-doing it.

You asked about the engine.  The first series of 331 cubed V8's they had in 
the Imperials and NY'rs was not a keeper.  Soooo, they made some several needed 
chages to it.  This engine is the much better "second series" 331.  It came 
also with the 225 horse powered 4 bbl since it is the NY'er De Luxe ( same as 
all Imperial's of the same year ).  The other thing is since it is the De Luxe 
and it has the air option it should have the up graded Imperial 50 AMP 6 volt 
generator instead of 6 volts and 45 AMPs.

The store's sell's person said it had the Hemi  in it.  Well DUH, all 
Imperials and New Yorkers only had the Hemi ( and every V8 De Soto with a DeS engine 
).  The Poly headed engines were only entry/low end Crashlier's and Dodge's.

( The short wheelbase 1957 De Soto  S-27 325 cubed V8 was only in a 
"Firesweep".  The car in De Soto name is really a Dodge ) .

My my, this makes one want to look for one now;  ... the 1954 _______ that is.


MY VINTAGE AIRSTREAM SONG

Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a Vintage Airstream.
My nieghbors have a Ford truck,  but that is not my dream.
I'll use a Imperial Crown Coupe,  with a big four thirteen.
Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a Vintage Airstream.

Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a Byam beret.
My friends all wear stetsons,
But that is not my way.
Please show that you love me,
And buy one today.
Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a Byam beret.

Oh Lord,  won't you buy me an alumium trailer.
My friends all drive new RV's,  but that's a poor spent dollar.
I'll work hard with my buffer to make it look cleaner.
Oh Lord,  won't you buy me an alumium trailer.

Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a new sewer hose.
My old one is broken,  my wife's holding her nose.
I need a brand new one,  so I won't stain my clothes.
Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a new sewer hose.

Oh Lord,  won't you buy me a Vintage Airstream.
My nieghbors have the Ford truck,  but that's not my dream.
I'll use that Imperial Crown Coupe,  with a big four thirteen.
Oh Lord, Oh Lord  won't you buy me a Vintage Airstream.
