I point out one Hurst with some artistic license and the thread is getting GM long roofs posted up.
Dan, do you know what your vert was originally?

Came from Texas about 30+ years ago sat in a garage here in So Cal all those years. . There is a old military base sticker on the front bumper I,ll have to get a pic of it.
 
I have confess that the front end looks better now when gold paint is not extending to the front fenders over the borders of hood. It looks more logical and somewhat lighter in appearance to me now.
 
1968 imperial what would the production be on this this is one of 25 ordered without a/c
