Damn, Doc, the more I see, the more I like. That window sticker is a good one.
 
Seller: "I'm a Cadillac guy. I buy and sell a lot of cars. I'm a small dealer down here. I just happened upon this one. It was sitting for awhile. Then, the last owner got her in 2013 and fixed her up. He just passed away.

Me: "What kinda shape is the body in?"

Seller: "Really solid. There's a couple spots of rust up front by the hood ornament and the vinyl top is faded a bit."

Me: "It's a nice color green."

Seller: "Yeah, Gosh...at least it's NOT white."

Me: "I just bought a white one."

Seller: "oh."


:lol:
 
Any idea when you're taking delivery? With minimal elbow grease Pickles will be a looker for sure!

Not exactly. The broker said he will put out a request for a carrier asap but with the long holiday weekend I should expect nothing right away. And then there is the Imperial size factor that always comes into play. It wouldn't surprise me if it took a month. One thing that played apart in the past is the timing around a big BJ or Mecum auction that drains carriers. And the snowbird cars on their way back for the summer.
 
I can say with certainty there isn't a nicer group of Imperials. I love the fact that you drive them and enjoy too. Another great score, love the white interior against the green.
 
Looking at the vents on the rear parcel shelf; has it got rear air?

I'll have to inspect it more when I get home. The dealer didn't know alot about it since he got it recently. He said the air works, new plugs, etc...basic stuff to sell. But, we'll see about the air. They usually don't and I don't care as long as they don't leak.

Thanks. I do drive them. This has been a wet Spring so I'm under my typical drive time. Today I'm gonna rotate Lil Red home and swap Big Red. Tomorrow I would like to drive Lee around and get her to the house for week of driving after work during the last full week of May.
 
It has been such a wet spring here, I haven't put nearly the miles on Goldie that I have in years past, but she has her space in the garage now, so I am ready when the weather cooperates.

It was a perfect pizza run night last night and a perfect morning for a cruise, to start the day. Life is Good!
 
Doc, you've got one serious, growing collection of Imperials to be very proud of.
Congratulations with the latest one. :thumbsup:
She's a beauty.
 
This turned out to help the 72/73 ratio for me being a '72...three 72's & four 73's.
Zac they're out there. There hasn't been many green ones for sale though...However, there is another green one on East Coast still for sale I believe.

I must’ve hit the bottle a little too hard last night, didn’t notice it was a ‘72 LOL.

I do love the green! Can’t lie, I’m not big on white on them. Too much white for me. Triple black would be the best, But they look great in just about any other color. One day I’ll have one!

Keep the pics coming! Enjoying it
