So I bought this one today.

[pomonamissel]

and its haul'd many a wrecks like that imp . funny today if that car was just wrecked and still together , it would have been fixed . well hell i cut demons , roadrunners , challengers , chargers , letter cars , ect..... it was all about the value , then wrecks were just parts cars , i enough drove them in and cut them to pieces . this one almost went that way , but a factory black 4 spd rr , it needs to be saved . and heres the clip from another 69 4spd rr , it could have been built as well . have the hood as well , glass 6pck one and a freash air original steel one as well . saved this 71 r/t challenger as well , and the repair parts from another 71 challenger as well , it could have been built at todays values .

Your going to tow a imperial cross country in a 60s swepty! NICE!

 

[pomonamissel]

not sure what puller i'm going to use . i have a few that could do the trip , just pre'pep on all is needed . first would be this starcraft mh p400 w/413 loadflite runs on lp fuel , my dad's old unit , this 69 d200 crewcab but it just became a driver . still needs work , and this 88 c30 crewcab , its low miles tbi 5.7 th400 . it was my pops as well . so i'm still on the fence on the puller . the chevy gets the best mileage of all . but its a chevy ! so i'll push onward through this b...s virus and wait to get it done right . i want weight in front of that trailer with the large heavy load on it .

Well I’d take the motor home, it’ll save you money on lodging that’ll more than outway any fuel savings the Chevy might offer and who wants to drive a Chevy anyway???

 

[detmatt]

The interiors are absolutely timeless on these cars, I didn’t really do anything but clean it up and refinish a few pieces of wood.

Its beautiful Matt, not doing anything but cleaning it makes the clip more appropriate

 

[pomonamissel]

well thats a fact on lodging , done that been there , lol . but she uses lp fuel is that an issue on the run to get to you detmatt ? it hold 100 gals , two 50's . gets about 6 miles per gal . so 300 to 600 between fueling it up . but its the best bet i think as well .

I appreciate the old work horse trailer but I'd suggest slapping on a fresh coat of tremclad/rustoleum black. As a commercial trucker I would call that trailer "scale bait" as it sits. ;)

 

[pomonamissel]

thats a good idea , no need for smokey's taking note of me traveling down the road . i'll give it a bath in rustoleum red primer . it will look like new , lol . being a self employed man i take in any good ideas . and when it comes to the cops i need some cloaking devise . i'll even wash that mh as well .

Was rearended at 40mph by a 14 year kid joy riding his parents 80s suburban.
It was a MD car and interior was sold and went into 67 conv.

After seeing the photos, I wasn't surprised to read on that it was a Suburban that plowed into the Imperial.

I would use the Chevy to tow, but I drive Chevy's every day.

Hi Matt,

I have a '67 LeBaron, with a running and moving 440 and 727, that I'm going to be listing as a parts car in the classifieds. Sounds like you might have an engine locked down but wanted to throw it out there. I'm located near Columbus, Ohio.

Thanks,

Nate

Also got a bunch of parts for the ‘64.

 

[pomonamissel]

Absolutely! We’re going to get some hang time in for sure pal! You can park in the back lot for as many days as it takes us to swap the stub frame.

 

[pomonamissel]

no prob detmatt . i placed a sales ad on site to see if dragging the parts would help sell them . it seems to have caught some members eyes . i'll try to remember those 65-68 imp disc hubs rotors with spindles for you . thought about trying those on a c body for wheel pattern change to 5 on 5 . hey i'm jazz'd i bought an austin a40 pickup today . i've wanted one for many years , this one just found me . its part of my gasser collection . not very good pics , cab n doors are hidden behind that 2 dr coupe body . and this nose pic , is just my pic . i'm due more pics of the one for it . i'll shot some more as i pick it up . lucky its not far from my here in calf .

Just stay out in the hammer lane hidden on the other side of a Pre-Pass truck with a dummy box.
