I was able to clear out my mail box and sent you a message. This is the same car. Was for sale on the west coast a few years ago. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1967-chrysler-imperial-3/

I am trying to communicate with another member but this site says my mailbox is full. I have used this rarely and cant seem to find where to delete old messages etc. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the info guys. I have been slowly replacing most of the front end this winter on my '68 Newport. First time ever doing this type of work and have been reading a number of threads on here that have been helpful. Including a reply to another of my questions in the spring. I appreciate it.

QUESTION: Do Monroe shocks need to be tied down in the same way as the KYB to install?

Ah, all good info for a job I am getting into now.:thumbsup:

MANN goes way back. Rudolph Diesel, the man himself, worked with them.
