You bet.
And some other Lummoxy junk you might like too.
Hope the pix are ok. Can't seem to post some as attachments, some come out way to large.

WOW! seems you are not really into standard tin then, fantastic bike in the first picture and do you actually have any spare time for model cars...?

Looks like the Imperial would not look out of place in a Seventies cop show...Thanks for showing them.

If by "standard tin" you mean regular modern cars, then no, I have none. Despise them.
These are my only daily drivers except for an old plow truck for winter. Even that is from the '80s.

'70s cop show for sure! Less the incorrect wide whites of course.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but am I to understand you own a 1:1 Rolls Royce or two???
If so I would really love to see pix, or a linc to pix.

[GHOSTHUNTER]

Hello Lummox, yes I do have a real 1:1 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and spent some time trying to think if there was a picture of it somewhere here on the forum, but could not find it, so I have put on the thread for the Matchbox model version and you can see it by clicking on this link...viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2660&p=23911#p23911

Love the Imperial, Its very similar to my grandmas 70 New Yorker and my grandads 69 Polara.

[Lummox]

Mr. Ghosty that is simply stunning!
Usually I only like the pre-'73 bumpers, but somehow that car pulls it off handsomely.
The rack & pinion must be a nice improvement.

And yes Nick, the Imperial of this generation had the same exact inner body shell as the Chrystler, Dodge, and Plymouth. ("C"-body)
The nose however was extended about 5 inches longer than the NY'er and the others.
At 19 feet and change the only car longer was the 75 Series Cadillac limousine.

[nickjones]

I can believe that only the Cadillac was bigger, We could sit four people in the back seat of the NY. Grandma was about 4 foot 8 so there was plenty of legroom in the back lol.

Thank's Lummox, when you say 19 feet, that reminds me of the last time I played the numbers game in a car park when an American car came in and parked next to me and we got chatting about what our cars are like to drive and how fast they are etc and I usually beat the other Guy when we start saying things like...engine size, mine is 3.5 Ltr, I then come back with...6.75 Ltr, he then says the weight of his car and I come back again with...2.5 Tonnes and so it goes and so far I have beaten them on the length as well, but in your case you beat me by 2 feet...

Ghosty.

[Lummox]

I know, the length is just staggering. Beyond ridiculous especially for a 2dr.!!!
2.5? So I got you beat only by about 200 pounds.
And with the 440 cube torque monster it's a thing to behold. She's a serious old girl that means business.

But the Imperial's fit and finish is nice....sort of, but laughable against your FR Silver Shadow.
And your hydraulic suspension??? Forget about it!!!
Make mine a '60's James Young Coupe, please. Black w/red hides.
