I haven't driven my '59 Imperial for about a week and a half now since it has a ripped coolant hose. I've been away for the holidays so I haven't had a chance to replace all the hoses yet, until tomorrow that is. I also haven't fully resolved my carburetor woes, so I have not been able to drive it to work. I'm longing to take it out for a nice freeway cruise, but without the high end power kicking in I am reluctant to take it on a high speed road. I am putting new hoses on it tomorrow, and will bypass the dumb water filter that someone added, and the broken heater core, then hopefully I will be able to get it started without to much trouble, and take a little drive to appease my appetite for my BIG car. After all who needs a heater or air conditioner for that matter here in southern California, especially when it is a fair weather driver, meaning not in the rain.
Happy New Year to all the list, and thank all of you who have helped me so often throughout my first year of Imperial ownership!
