Perhaps an update on what you've done to it since the BAT sale? It is sitting lower, and how much cooler does it look for that change!

Yeah but the English wheel gets better gas mileage.

I think that is the most bucolic wrecking yard that I have ever seen.

"Believe" is doing a lot of lifting there.

The mirrors are pretty ugly too, but the power mirror switch is even worse. I would have gone for seats with built in belts to avoid the sightline being interrupted. BUT it is great to see one of these done, too few are given the love they deserve (Matt aside, and I bet you wouldn't put matte on...

They also have the Holden wagon behind it.

I was looking at the OIC site and that may be the 1966 price. BUT I know better than to argue with the man who owns one

I thought that I remembered her, she had a 67 convertible and a 68 hardtop for sale last year. The others are sold, but this one has dropped from $17,400 to $13,700.

Sorry to ask, but what do you mean you are unsure of its' fate, not parts surely? Too good and too rare for that. Also I'm amazed it hasn't sold, but I've said that before. Good luck

Justin I don't know enough about it. I'm pretty sure that it was a later import, not sold new here. I'm fairly certain that Imperials were never imported new here (I say that and wait for someone to smash me with a fact).

I spotted this beautiful Imperial a miele while back. The paint had been re-done with extra metal flake and was gorgeous. Rare, and even rarer in country Australia

I mean there are other shots available...

Matte. Of course it is matte. the shame:eek: Sound advice though Matt, mate
