Hi everyone! I just picked up a 1981 Imperial. Actually, I probably saved it from a slow death of neglect. The body and frame are pretty solid, the engine and tranny seem decent, but the interior was a disaster -- it must have been sitting with the windows open for five years, as the layer of mold and filth was pretty impressive, and the smell was unbearable. Good thing that I won't need the nasty interior, as I'm going to turn this into a........
24 Hours of LeMons race car! Please don't crucify me for turning a "rare" car into a racer. :icon_winkle: The way I see it, I'll be giving this car a new lease on life, and showering it with more attention than it's received over the last ten years of it's life. It'll get new fluids, new parts, be able to breath easier, and live the rest of it's life on smooth race tracks going as fast as it can!
I've always really likes the looks of the 80's Imperial, and now I have one!
Looking forward to sharing info with everyone and learning as much as I can about these fine machines.
