There were 577 1967 Imperial convertibles built. I own a white over blue example with 83,000 miles in a 3 plus condition. A few months ago, I subscribed to the service advertised in Hemmings that purports to know the number of vehicles currently REGISTERED. According to them, 53 67 convertibles are still registered. -----Original Message----- From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tom Hubbard Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2004 2:34 PM To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: IML: "showroom condition"?/survival rate Given how few '67-'68 Imperials were produced, and especially the low number of convertibles, the survival rate is kind of impressive isn't it? At any given time there seems to be at least one or two convertibles at eBay or on www.collectorcartraderonine.com --- jsadowski <jsadowski@xxxxxxx> wrote: > The 67-68's seem to have a very high survival > rate.With that in mind, I think one would be hard > pressed to get anywhere near this persons asking > price for a really nice example, let alone one that > was so many flaws. > John > ----- Original Message ----- > From: A.
