Beautiful car but they could have upgraded the gauge and dash for a few dollars more. It looks like a cheap Plymouth Fury gauge cluster ,no pop no bling just plain Jane no frills. This isn't suppose to be a no frills luxury car.

that one i would have liked to own one but bought others, i didn´t saw it then but if i did had seen it ,i would have bought it, i used to sell north american cars in Europe and i kept some for myself and they still run like new today,lot´s of money spent in keeping them that way but also i live in a region where there was almost no humidity in the air so it helped a lot, i do liove the cadillac coupe deville ,59 with big fins and the mercury marquis from 74 ,i think, also the cougar from 69 7.0L all black and all original ,i keep them original only some upgrades as in tires and brake or injection system modernised but not all, only some super heavy drinkers as when i went for a ride i used to spend a Mercedes w124 or the 300D in gasoline, this in late 80´s but whatever i went people gathered around it

My paternal grandmother had a cousin who drove nothing but Imperials. He was a mechanical engineer and did his homework when it came to choosing between Cadillac/Lincoln/Imperial. He traded every 4 years. My first experience was the '65. Hey kids, let's go for a ride through the state park. Seven year old kid jumps into the overstuffed, black leather back seat. SOLD! The '73 seemed 35 feet long and 18 feet wide. Did you know, Imperials were never allowed in Demolition Derbies because they're pretty much indestructible?

Unfortunately I am down to one, that is Tux. Tux will be staying with me for a very long time, TB went off to Texas. Seems the buyer is flipping TB after giving a big story about this being the car he has wanted for so long and that he would be giving TB a good home. Oh well, free to do what we want. Can't complain. Just hope a legit good home is in TB's future.
