Any of you need anything from this?
$50 + shipping for the whole thing or I’ll sell parts off of it.

I just heard through the grapevine that our friend @mobileparts may have had an accident at home that landed him in the hospital.

My new `67 Imperial Crown Coupe!

I’ve had my eye on this one for a little while but it has been burried in a buddies pull barn so I couldn’t get a good look at it, much less see that it ran and could move under its own power.

Chronometer is untested.
