I've been hooked every since and they have kept entertained while I have been overseas being home sick..... Inspired me to buy farm find 1993 Silverado pickup from auction that needed to be brought back around... My youngest daughter now daily drives it....

    sometimes, that is the best type of funnel for the job. Especially for really dirty stuff that you don't want to have to clean up after. I always keep a few empty gallon jugs from washer fluid, etc. Mostly to cut and use as funnels. Not something I need often, but they sure do come in handy on those rare occasions that I need one.

The free standing headlights were unique and a nod to the earlier Imperials designs of the '30's. Thanks Derick for spotlighting a late model classic car and bringing it back to life. Your efforts are appreciated!

Being unable to afford having it done and working 7 days a week on end I decided to do it. I layed under it rested the tank on my chest and then got her to the ground and visa versa.

Lemme show you what I can be!"....and boy doesn't she look great! Beautiful colour - and those pinstripes just make it something special. I'd be proud to be out and about in something like that. Can it be improved? Sure - but she looks a million dollars from 10 feet now and when you're cruising along, that's all that matters. Great example of what can be done to bring a car around with a bit of physical effort, some time and - crucially - with little money. Awesome job, mate! All the best from here in New Zealand.

    I, too, like this car for some reason! I think it's a combination of the maroon color, the wheel & tire combination, the eye pleasing classic long hood/short deck styling, and the fact that back in the day, it was a "top of the line" personal cruising car. I guess. I just like it. Oh, and probably the glass hood ornament! I remember seeing them in parking lots back then, and always thought they were a neat touch!

    Derek I loved watching you pick up this car and I am so glad you went the extra mile to get it running right, use the fuel tank instead of gas cans and cleaned up the outside so nice. This is definitely a car to keep, I love the sinister look of the front (reminds me of the possessed car in the movie "The Car"), and it has a lot of history as Chrysler pioneered many new things (many of which did not work), and lastly old "Blue eyes" himself Frank Sinatra promoted the car to help Chrysler and got one of the first off the line (only to be abandoned after breaking down!). I love this car so I wish you the best, take care, bless you and your family!

    Focus on long term investments in property, stocks, and bonds. Avoid copying, daytrading and 'chart astrology'.
