Hello, Sorry
it took a while, but you can see some photos at www.choicestoday.com/1953Imperial Thank
you Tom From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rick Wiselus I have a 53 4 dr crown and I know what you mean about the
prices, they really do have a wide range. There was a really nice one
that sold on ebay a few months ago, surprisingly for around $37000! I would
like to see some pics of this car, and would like to know what it does sell
for. I would also be glad to lend any advice to the new owner if they
need any. Hello
all, I
hope this is ok to post here. One of my neighbors has been a car enthusiast all
of his life, but now is getting on in age and has recently lost his vision all
together. He has sold most of his cars, but one of the ones still for sale is a
1953 Imperial. Since he knows I own several Imperials, he asked me to try and
sell his. This
is an original California car with almost no signs of any rust. The brakes have
all been replaced, as has the carpet. The car runs and drives just fine, but
does smoke. I feel it is because it has sat for the last couple of years and
the valve seals have deteriorated. The car is complete and the only part needs
replacing is one door window, which is there but cracked. The body is very
good, but does need to be repainted to bring it up to snuff. The paint is all
there, but faded. It is a 2 tone green. It is safe to say that the car is
pretty much all original and to become show quality would need rechroming, some
upholstery etc. As a daily driver, it is all there. Now,
here is where I need some help. I have no idea what a car like this is worth on
the open market. I have looked at various sources and the prices seem to be all
over the map. If
anyone knows these models, I would appreciate some guidance on pricing. As
well, if anyone is interested, I would be pleased to provide detailed photos. By
the way, the car is located in Northern California, about 35 miles North of
Fresno. Thanks
everyone. TomC |
