Biggest Imperial, a conundrum

[RandalPark@xxxxxxx]

Well, you got me there.

The smallest garage that I have was not quite long enough to fit the '63 
Imperial all the way in and swing the door shut. I should probably admit that 
the car had a hand in making it possible to shut the door, and there are two 
"garage extensions" critically placed in the wall board behind the car in the 
exact shape of those round back-up lights in the rear bumper!

Now the door shuts just fine.
