Still basking in all the positive comments on my previous "1971 brown Imp for sale-post" :yaayy: I post again with the same recipe :sunny:

I'm thrilled that this one is brown, coz if it had been black or white, I would have had to buy it..! It's really really good looking !

I was going to be a smart *** and ask him how much he wanted for it but I thought no one in their right mind will sell such a gorgeous car....
btw I think the color combo on this one is fantastic!

Despite not being particular fond of brown cars, I agree on the color Matt, but not ready to pay silly "sunroof money" for a brown car..

However, the imps carry almost any color with dignity.. being such an extremely beautiful car..!

The rear shot by itself is amazing.. he must have used a mild wide angle lens

I will keep an eye on this auction..

 

[Chryslerdude]

Still prefer the blue though..

 

[1978 NYB]

I agree the blue is a better color. But I have to also admit that the metallic brown is very stunning in the sun too.

 

[detmatt]

That interior is amazing in that color in conjunction with the white top. I saw this car in person on Saturday before it was for sale and it's truly stunning.

Anyone looking for a 59 belvedere? I can hardly believe my eyes.

 

[1978 NYB]

It has headlamp washers....

Best looking Imp grill for the Fusies.

 

[sauterd]

how about the '69 vs. the other years? I think I prefer the 69, but actually the 72 is quite "menacing" too.... and 73 had the bumper guards, but...

 

[Homerr]

Wow...and I even love the color!

 

[Mr C]

My call is that this one is going to Europe...

 

[commando1]

Life is unfair....
I'll have to deal with it, tho.....

 

[fc7_plumcrazy]

not sure it will go to europe.
Most guys here don't want a hole in the roof.
Either no roof or a complete one ;o))

I would be out anyway due to "brown"

With no garage....I'm not fond of sunroof cars either.

I agree completely.. The 69' grill is my absolute favorite... I did a lot of thinking before I chose which one to buy, and I found the fine mesh in the grill to be the better looking, and after a good long consideration, I think the 69 rear bumper also has a more clean look. When you then ad the SUPER COOL "shark gill style" side marker lights (or simply "Shark lights", if we ask our friend Xavier), there's very little doubt in my mind. The last bit of doubt was rinsed away by the way way superior '69 hub caps. Also perfer the 69 door panels

1969 is my favorite.

EDIT: Drawbacks for 69' = The steering column lock was not introduced until 1970.. and I would have liked that..! Also the 1970 bucket seats are superior in my book.. If anyone has a set, I'd be interested to buy!

All this said, these are only little details. I LOVE all of them, and would not hesitate to buy another if I got a good offer.

Just picked up the key for my new garage/storage for "The blue wonder", and I think I could easily fit another in there :-D

Funny that you mention the 72 too, as it has the best looking grill/front setup of them all, IMO...

Where is the mandatory rust around the back window ?!? A really beautiful car.

 

[cm23uoc]
