Hi Steve,

 

Nice into.  I just purchased a 61 Crown 4-door.  It is all original but has 81K miles on it.  I am redoing the interior and paint.  I found the original cloth material in Oregon.   I would love to see some pictures of your car.  If you have some of the interior and engine compartment that would be great.  I would really appreciate it.  

Welcome to the club.  I just joined last week myself.
