Mr C's Christmas Imperial

[Mr C]

Christmas was good! Despite my storage difficulties, I could not say no to this car at the price I negotiated. I feel like I stole it. Picked it up today.

Yes I need some 68 trim parts (drivers skirt and drivers front fender upper side piece).

What did you pay for it?

Nice to see you bringing one home

U-haul let you put a 68 Imp convertible on their trailer! I had to fight with them to let me put my 48 Desoto on one, and I'm sure it weighs less then that Imp. ;)

Cool car....what are the options and such on this one....and plans?

What did you pay for it?

A price that was agreeable to both parties is all we need to know.

Congrats Mr C

A more discreet way; what was the asking price?

This was the add. I negotiated from there and got an excellent deal.

The car is pretty fully loaded, Dual PSeats, PAnt, ATC, P vent windows, 440 Dual, P top, Light Sentinel, etc.

Plans are, in the short term- make the car mechanically 100% and no real emphasis on cosmetics (kind of rat rod-ish). After the mechanicals are satisfactory I will dismantle the car for a complete makeover in all respects.

I told U Haul I was towing a Charger. Towed fine...just took it nice and easy.

Is the top then dark green or black. You snagged a sharp car and I like it.

Green top and interior. Shriner car.

I find her stunning just the way she is. What a Car.

Whenever my Parts guy Rents their trailers, No matter what the car he always says it's a Omni.

A approve that message!

Nice! I thought you weren't a ragtop guy, Matt! Looks like a fun one, and at a pretty decent price, to boot.

 

[Turboomni]

He paid peanuts if lower than the asking price. Way to go man!!
