What’s the top speed you have driven in your C-body?

Just curious, cars without major upgrades that you have owned.

I’ll go first, ’71 Fury III 360 stock other than electronic ignition, 105 mph.

Was still digging but I didn’t push to go any faster in a car that’s 50 years old.

Is this a member’s Imperial?

Saw this yesterday at the Gilmore Extravaganza. Power vents, manual a/c and almost like new. I looked at it for a long time!

Hoping to get the paint buffed out this weekend and post some pics of the results! Here’s how it looks now…

How to replicate grill texture decals ’71 Fury?

I don’t think this subject has come up. Unfortunately the texture of the outboard part of the headlight buckets was accomplished with a sticker. They didn’t hold up. Anyone know or has anyone seen a good way to get that area back to the original look?

Fuselage rainwater leak

Small puddles on either side of floor a few inches in front of the door and a couple inches inboard of the kick panels. Ideas from fuselage owners? Door seals were leaking before but I fixed that by installing an extra seal around the door opening. Tha…
