Well, you can always raise them (headlamp doors) manually! I've had to do that occasionally.

Took Sadie out today and drove her around town! Getting the hang of driving it! It took time to get used to the car’s size but it’s been much easier lately.
I get a lot of waves and thumbs up when I drive her around!

Take your turns wide and gentle.... that girl has as big butt!
Driving these barges is easier than driving new plastic bullets because all the corners are clearly visible. You also see the long hood instead of having to imagine it while parking.

@ImpJay Have you got your Imperial already?
Sadly no. Next month between the 11nth (My birthday) and last day. I need to be 18-year-old to get the whole price paid for it, because I will use my heritage money for an obviously good cause.
I agree...2 doors most often are sexier but I can love the 4 doors...I've got a 72 Fury III and a 68 Newport and likely i woiudnt be able to play without the lower prices of these babies...
I have to say that 4dr hts can be a lot of fun while cruising with all the side windows down.

Yes, I like hardtops - 2 or 4 doors. My Plymouth Fury is a 4 door hardtop and when you roll them all down the open area is unbelievable - and awesome.
I keep saying to my mom that if I put the windows down, I could push a whale in.

My wife says that if we ever become homeless we could live in the car, the seats are the couch in the front and a bed would easily fit in the trunk.

Lovely car.4 doors are great for taking friends places.What i love about them is when you pull the door closed the plush interior snugs against you as a passenger.Sail pillows,seats,door panels.Lets roll,ya know.B.B
Have you any updates, Collin?
Hey ImpJay! I haven’t driven quite as much lately due to the cold and wet weather. I still take her out on Sundays when weather permits but she’s been hibernating in the garage hooked up to a trickle charger for the most part. If we have another pretty Sunday before Christmas I’ll take her out for some more photos.
Collin, trickle chargers scare the sh_t out of me...I disconnect batteries after every daily drive/overnight and/or when I leave house. It's my OCD problem I know...But, I wonder how many garage fires start from Old Iron electrical issues. I'm not trying to be clever but my eye doctor's home burned down from a trickle charge malfunction this year.
Same thing over here. When a car goes to hibernation, minus battery cable comes off. It´s even easier to make repairs when you don´t have think about possible electricity coming via the tool used at the time.
