If NAPA has the wheel cylinders, I would think they could get
rebuild kits also. For the little extra $$, I bought all new wheel cylinders for
both of my 60's. Taking these apart one time is enough. I don't want to
have to go back again because a bleeder screw snapped off or such.

Imperial
Hi, Well I bought Tim Hulse's 1960 Imperial and it now lives in
beautiful
San Diego. I have always wanted a 60 and this one is a great one
to start
with. Tim and I had a lot of fun figuring out how to get the car
on the
trailer since it was missing ramps. Thanks to a somewhat steep
driveway and
Tim's car ramps we finally got it up on the trailer. It rode
proudly from
Bakersfield to Yucaipa, CA where it waited until I got it
registered. I went
back up to my sisters where it was stored and again it
rode proudly down the
freeway to it's new, very much cooler, home in San
Diego. Thankfully, where
I keep a lot of my cars, the alley drops off
fairly abruptly and allowed me
to get the car off the trailer without too
much trouble. I had to pump up
the brakes and drove it to the local auto
parts store and got tune up stuff
for it. It drove great, but without power
assist, the Imp was a little hard
to stop. Now I need to rebuild the brakes
and booster. I found that Napa has
the wheel cylinders, but I would like to
try and rebuild the ones in it to
save a little money, any ideas where to
get these kits? I currently have an
81 Imperial and have owned a 1955.
Anyway this great car has a new loving
home and should be on the road again
soon. Bob
