Asking that much for the car, they ought to have sprung for proper pipes (among other things). I tapped the link and eBay served up this pop-up: Ooh, five whole dollars! :rofl:

Adding to the polarizing bustle-back design of the Imperial was the position of the license plate recess, planted above the taillights like an afterthought. “Oh, why?” was my reaction when I first saw it. Edit/addendum: At least it wasn’t as derivative as the Cadillac Cimarron.

“I know what I have. It ran when parked.” :soapbox:

eBay has some of the same problems. I’ve noticed lots of old cars listed as “19xx Dodge Other,” for example, because the model name wasn’t in the pull-down menu.

There’s always the Chrysler by Chrysler from Australia.

The same way he thinks it’s a Monaco Polara Custom?

I saw this car in Lakewood, Colorado in 1985 or thereabouts. Normally I’d qualify that, but a brown-and-white ’61 Chrysler New Yorker isn’t exactly a Winnebago. Besides, this one still sports Colorado license plates. Probably just as well (for my bank account) that it isn’t very close by...

Then install ’em, dammit! Still wouldn’t be worth the a$king price, though.

I keep telling myself to stop reading FCBO’s “for sale” listings. Lots of cars I’d like to have, but can’t buy. :BangHead: Probably just as well that I didn’t win one of those huge lotto jackpots; I’d end up being a car hoarder. :rolleyes:

Somewhere in there is a joke/pun about getting hosed.

Was drivable when parked? :rolleyes:

I might give that a try on some of my panels—borrowing the caveat on many a product label: “Test in an inconspicuous area first.”

It might be that critical operating systems (read: computers) aren’t compatible with the old dashboards. Having airbags would be nice, too. OTOH, I’m reminded of beautiful old houses that have been retrofitted with fashionably dreary 21st-C. kitchens and bathrooms.

The Imperial has been sold. I LOL’d at the reference to an 18 x 6-foot shadow! They say that you get what you pay for, but somebody got much better looks than a new Lexus at a fraction of the price!

The seller evidently can’t decide if it’s a T&C or a Fury? Or he previously sold a Fury and just copied and pasted the text? And 1,234 miles? Too many WTFs in one ad.

To be more specific:

That insanely priced '76 T&C from Duncan Motors is back - with a big discount to a mere 49.5 grand. I'm fanatic about these cars, but at that price ... WTF?!? I guess I'll have to settle for the '85 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit for half the price. Not nearly as pretty as the Chrysler, IMO. 1976...

The more I see those '69 Polara/Monacos, the more I like 'em! At 19 grand? I'll borrow a line I just saw on the Craigslist Morons' thread: he's really out to lunch. (Not that I could afford it anyway.) I'm guessing that there's a cracked heater core or something; I can't think of any reason to...

Apparently someone can't tell a '60 Belvedere sedan from a '59 Cadillac ambulance (or doesn't care). Moron. Wonder how much it'd cost to unfuck it up (unfuck it down?).
